nomen dubium. The species C. regularis was described from an individual of the type series of C. alatus from Bogotá, D.C. This species was included together with C. alatus to form the genus Chonodesmus. However, it was described poorly because it was based on morphological characters not too important for the delimitation of species in Cryptodesmidae. The type material used for the description is incomplete; being a juvenile male with the first 12 body rings, dry and pinned (Fig. 3).
