In the new species, the comb is made of about 4 spines, which hardly stand out from the gonostylar bulgeʾs dense cover with microtrichia and fine setae (↓ 1 , Fig. 17A ), whereas in C. toelgi the comb is about twice that size and fairly conspicuous ( Jaschhof & Jaschhof 2013 : fig. 133b). Further differences concern the parameres, which are nearly straight and point posteriad in C. parvidentata (↓ 2 ) versus strongly bent dorsad in C. toelgi , and the gonocoxal processes whose portions beyond the apical bend are markedly shorter in C. parvidentata (↓ 3 ) compared with C. toelgi ( Jaschhof & Jaschhof 2013 : fig. 133b). As regards non-terminalia distinctions, the eye bridge of C. parvidentata is markedly shorter dorsally compared with that of C. toelgi (2‒3 ommatidia versus 7‒8 ommatidia) and the flagellomeral necks of C. parvidentata are shorter (1.5‒1.7 versus 2.0‒2.2 times the nodal length in the fourth flagellomere, Fig. 17B ) and lack the dark pigmentation found in C. toelgi . Larvae and females of the new species are unknown. DNA barcode CO1 sequences (651‒652bp) of two paratype specimens detailed below are available in BIN BOLD:AER0014. Search on BOLD’s BIN Database retrieved no further result for this BIN (accessed 27 Aug. 2023 ). Etymology The specific epithet, an adjective, means ‘small-toothed’, with reference to the inconspicuous gonostylar tooth typical of this species.
