Enicotaenia marabana Santa-Rita & Dombroskie & Ledezma & Baixeras 2025, comb. n.

Enicotaenia marabana (Razowski & Becker, 2000)— comb. n. Furcataenia marabana Razowski & Becker, 2000. Acta Zoologica Cracoviensia 43: 201. Razowski & Becker (2000) described the genus Furcataenia to include a series of species from Brazil with bizarre male genitalia. They also described F. marabana, a species based on a single worn female. In the female genitalia drawing by Razowski & Becker (2000) the ductus bursae is presumably rotated. The signum appears on the left part of the corpus bursae and should be on the right side. Anyway, the female genitalia are similar in both species, and they both appear to have the A8 pockets. It seems reasonable to assume that such a structure is an apomorphy of the genus, suggesting monophyly. The discovery of E. interandina relates both species through the female genitalia, but the male of E. interandina is not assignable to Furcataenia. We propose the description of a separate genus, Enicotaenia, to include the new species together with E. marabana, closely related species. Because the information on E. interandina is more complete, we propose it as the type species for the genus.
