Taxonomy
editThe species was originally described by David Sharp in 1890 under the genus Philydrus.[6]
It was transferred to the genus Chasmogenus when Chasmogenus was considered a subgenus of the genus Helochares and a synonym of Crephelochares. Additional details about the taxonomic history of Chasmogenus and Crephelochares can be found in Girón and Short (2021).[7]
Description
editThe species is closely related to Chasmogenus orbus, only can be separated by features of the aedeagus: parameres without or with small subapical tooth, where the apex is broadened inwards. Median lobe gradually becomes narrow from apical quarter to apex and widely truncate apically.[8]
