This Sciapodinae had a different body shape from the ones I see in eastern North America. I have no idea the genus.

8 June 2008, near Santo Domingo de los Colorados, Ecuador. This site was west of the Andes (foothills) and just south of the Equator. Shady forest with meadows nearby. Elevation just under 700 meters.
