Remarks.
Bisaltes
(
Bisaltes
)
adustus
(see photographs on
Bezark 2022a
) was described based on a single specimen from
Argentina
(
Tucumán
).
Monné (2022)
and
Tavakilian & Chevillotte (2021)
report that the species was described based on
syntypes
. However, there is no evidence of this in the original description.
Breuning (1971b)
described
B. argentinensis
(see photograph on
Bezark 2022a
) from
Argentina
(
Salta
). Comparing the original descriptions, specimens of
B.
(
B.
)
adustus
, and a photograph of the
holotype
of
B. argentinensis
, we did not find a reliable difference. Therefore,
B.
(
B.
)
argentinensis
is synonymized with
B.
(
B.
)
adustus
.
