The types of the remaining two South American species classified in Moribaetis Waltz & McCafferty, 1985 were studied. Moribaetis comes (Navás, 1912) is designated as a nomen dubium based on the lack of information in the original description, the damaged type and the resultant improbability of assigning specimens to this species. The type-material of M. aneto (Traver, 1971), on the other hand, is well-preserved. Based on the morphology of males and females, we propose a new combination, Camelobaetidius aneto. In conclusion, we consider the genus Moribaetis to be absent from South America.
对分类于1985年的华尔兹和麦卡弗蒂所命名的莫里巴蜉属中的其余两种南美物种进行了研究。基于原始描述中缺乏信息、模式标本受损以及由此导致的无法将标本归入该物种的可能性，莫里巴蜉（纳瓦斯，1912年）被指定为一个存疑名称。另一方面，阿内托莫里巴蜉（特拉弗，1971年）的模式标本保存完好。基于雄性和雌性的形态，我们提出一个新组合，即阿内托骆驼蜉属。总之，我们认为南美不存在莫里巴蜉属。
