Abstract
Geocharis ruiztapiadori Zaballos, 1997 is redescribed, increasing more than double the morphological features used in the genus, that includes a dimorphic character and several autapomorphies. The first specimen outside of the type location is found, with a representative difference in ring sclerite. New structures described open a new way to study the Geocharis morphology and deepen into the relations with other genus of the tribe.
