Abstract
The three species treated in the present paper are considered together because two of them, cruciatus and trinidadensis , have been confused with each other for many years, while cruciatus and gomezi are closely related man-biting species likely to be confused with one another. P. cruciatus does not occur in Panama, but is included for comparison with gomezi and to clarify its status.
