Distribution: Guatemala, Costa Rica, Panama, Ecuador, Brazil (MG, ES, RJ, SP, PR, SC, RS new rec.).

Remarks: C. teter presents a combination of morphological characteristics that makes it recognizable among the others species of the subgenus, the rounded outline of the head without the projections of C. emarginatus, the number of setigerous punctures of pronotal lateral submargin (16–18) and on the costa (5–7) (Fig 1F) and the labium apex reaching posterior coxae. First record for Ecuador in Froeschner (1981).
