Background: The genus Scaponopselaphus Scheerpeltz was originally described to accommodate the species Trigonopselaphusmutator Sharp.
New Information: In this paper, I review Scaponopselaphus and describe a new species from Colombia as Scaponopselaphusdiaspartos n. sp. Illustrations are provided for the identification of specimens and the presence of spatulate setae on first mesotarsomere is shown to be a unique characteristic of Scaponopselaphus within Xanthopygina.
