Paratypes (2 ♂, 7 ♀) • 6: same data as holotype • 3: same locality as holotype but collected on 28 - Dec- 2016 (SIMT 254-255, SIMT 278 to 280, SIMT 282, SIMT 309 to 311) (QCAZ-I -280208 to 280216). Diagnosis. Head broad, with lateral vertexal foveae deep, non-setose, closer to eyes on each side than to each other; two median foveae; eyes protuberant but not large, diameter ~ 2 / 3 postocular genal width; two gular foveae present; antennae short, antennomere III slightly longer than wide, IV – VI beadlike, rounded, VII – IX increasingly transverse, shorter, X short, rounded transverse, XI ~ 3 × as long as X, rounded, with setose depression on inner apex, no antennal segment differences between male and female; male pronotum (Fig. 7 C) wider than long, widest toward front, with anterior part of lateral margins rounded, slightly constricted before base, basal margin slightly widened and elevated; small, distinct median subbasal fovea present; anteromedian portion of disk with deep, broad, weakly subdivided, ovoid depression, with dense setal row along posterior margin, sparser setal row at middle of anterior margin, and two small, dense tufts of setae along midline; small, shallow secondary pronotal depressions are present along either side of median depression; two anteroprosternal foveae present; each elytron with four basal foveae, three foveae evenly spaced and one disjunct; sutural stria complete; discal striae absent; wings present, 5 × the length of elytron; legs simple; male last sternite (Fig. 5 C) convex, sparsely setose, with a narrow, tongue-like process on the apical margin; male apical tergite transverse, slightly depressed in the middle. Aedeagus (Fig. 8 C) with elongate median lobe and separate accessory sclerites; parameres apparently fused to basal apodeme and to middle of median lobe, separate for much of basal ¼ of aedeagal length; median lobe narrow, with elongate, basally rounded distally subquadrate basal foramen; tegmen narrowed beyond and strongly curved laterad to subacute apex; accessory sclerites large and elaborate, each with articulated pair of strongly sclerotized arcs, one (left side) C-shaped, with series of basal serrations. TL 1.46–1.59 mm, EW 0.37–0.40 mm. Distribution. This species is known from páramo habitats on Mt. Cayambe, province of Pichincha, Ecuador. Etymology. The name of this species acknowledges the Cayambi people, indigenous to Pichincha, Imbabura, and Napo provinces.
