abstract:
The systematic position of the genus Colomboscia Vandel, 1972 is discussed. This genus, originally placed in the family Bathytropicae, is here transferred to the family Scleropactidae, near Scleropactes Budde.Lund, 1885. A redescription of the type-species Colomboscia cordillierae Vandel, 1972 and a description of the new species C. bituberculata, both from Colombia, are given.
