Abstract

A new monotypic genus of Epipsocidae, from Machu Picchu and Aguascalientes, Cusco, Peru, is here described and illustrated. It is related to Gojaoides García Aldrete, from which it clearly differs in having the external parameres distinctly developed, and in having the endophallic sclerites asymmetric. The types are deposited in the National Insect Collection (CNIN), Instituto de Biología, Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México, in Mexico City
