Cleidogona mandeli Chamberlin

Description

Cleidogona mandeli Chamberlin

Cleidogona mandeli Chamberlin, 1952, p. 13.

Type and only locality: Volcán Tajmulco, San Marcos Dep., Guatemala.

The holotype and only specimen could not be located by me in 1972 and subsequent inquiries in 2003 were also fruitless. Chamberlin’s illustration of the gonopod in lateral view is highly diagrammatic and lacking in detail; about the only diagnostic feature that can be discerned is the relatively long, thin, sinuously curved colpocoxite.
