Type. Holotype: male from Quebrada Palo Blanco, Santuario de Flora & Fauna Otún Quimbaya, Vereda La Suiza, Corregimiento La Florida [Pereira], Risaralda, Colombia, 1800 m, 4.727778°N, 75.58°W, VII.2005, A. Sabogal (ICN –Ar 7746).

Etymology. The epithet is a noun in apposition and honors an extinct indigenous civilization from the Andean region of Colombia, which inhabited the Caldas, north of Valle del Cauca, Quindío and Risaralda departments. The Quimbaya civilization is famous for its most emblematic gold-piece, the Poporo Quimbaya.

Diagnosis. Males of A. quimbaya sp. nov. are similar to those of A. mae sp. nov. and A. sua sp. nov. by the shape of the RTA, but they can be distinguished from those for their longer embolus, the different disposition of the embolic filament (EF), the absence of an evident process on the embolic disc (ED), their shorter dorsal lobe of the RTA, and the presence of an embolic lamella (EL) (Figs 7c–d, 21f–g).
