Eremobates acuitlapanensis (Vázquez & Gaviño-Rojas 2000) new combination

Eremopus acuitlapanensis Vázquez & Gaviño-Rojas 2000: 227 –228, figs. 1–9

Eremoacosta acuitlapanensis (Vázquez & Gaviño-Rojas 2000): Harvey 2002: 451.

Type material. Holotype male from México: Guerrero, Acuitlapan; collected 13 October 1976; collected by Melgar, Novelo, and Chavarría. Deposited at IBUNAM . One male, one female paratype from same locale, also deposited at IBUNAM. Type examined.

Discussion. The shape of the flagellar groove (Vázquez & Gaviño-Rojas 2000, figs. 2–3, p. 229) and the presence of an apical plumose bristle places the species in the genus Eremobates . The molecular phylogeny of Cushing et al. (2015) supports the placement of this species outside the Eremocosta clade close to other species in Eremobates
