Taxonomic revision of millipedes shows Colombocricus contains C. tegua and Rhinocricus fundipudens, suggesting biodiversity.
Colombocricus gen. nov. is established for two species from Colombia, with C. tegua gen. et sp. nov. designed as the type species. Based on the type material and fresh specimens, Rhinocricus fundipudens (Karsh, 1881) is transferred to the new genus Colombocricus gen. nov. and its redescription is presented. In addition, a key to males and a map of distribution of the genus is provided.
