Andeocalynda carrikeri (Hebard, 1919) n. gen., n. comb.

(Figs. 2C, 6)

Dyme carrikeri Hebard, 1919: 174. HT, ♂: San Lorenzo, Santa Marta, Colombia, VIII, 23, 1913; (M. A. Carriker Jr) 8300 feet; Dyme carrikeri Hebard, M 455 Type [ANSP]. n. comb. Otte, 19778: 77.

Bacteria carrikeri, Otte & Brock, 2005: 62.

Conle, Hennemann & Gutiérrez, 2011: 58.

Diagnosis: The anal segment, which is gradually ascendant and flattened towards the apical portion (Fig. 6C) resembles ♂♂ of A. granulosa n. sp. and A. lojaense n. sp.. The less bulgy poculum, which bears a small and obtuse posteriad directed central protuberance (Fig. 6C; angular but without a protuberance in granulosa), differently shaped vomer, distinct blackish longitudinal postocular streak (Fig. 6B), unicoloured mesonotum as well as the slight sub-basal protuberance of the posteroventral carina of the mesofemora well distinguishes A. carrikeri from the first species. From the second species it can be distinguished by the larger size, relatively much shorter abdominal tergum IX and longer anal segment and rounded posterior margin of the poculum (Fig. 6E). Body length of the holotype 78.5 mm.

Comments: Here transferred from the Antillean genus Bacteria Latreille et al., 1827 where it was placed by Otte & Brock (2005: 62). So far only known from the unique ♂ holotype in ANSP (Fig. 6A), hence the ♀♀ and eggs are still unknown.

Distribution: S-Colombia, Dept. Nariño, Magdalena, Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta, San Lorenzo, 2530 m [ANSP].
