Abstract

Chilemutilla Cambra and Quintero (Sphaeropthalminae), a new genus of nocturnal Mutillidae is described and illustrated based on the following six new species from northern Chile: C. aielloae n. sp., male; C. aptera n. sp., male; C. atacama n. sp., male; C. gauldi n. sp., male; C. incognita n.sp., female; and C. snellingi n. sp., male. Chilemutilla aptera is the first wingless mutillid male described from South America. In addition, we have prepared the first generic key for nocturnal sphaeropthalmine males from South America.
