Lectotype . ♀ . Here designated. Colombia , La Lucera,?-X-?, 8800 feet , Steihelli (MNHN). Chevrolat does not indicate the number of specimens upon which he based his description. To fix this species name to a primary type specimen, I invoke Recommendation 73F of the ICZN (1999) and designate a lectotype . CORPORAAL 1950: 285 . D i a g n o s i s: The members of this species resemble superficially those of M. menda , but M. angulicollis specimens differ in that the pronotal disc is punctate at the midline, which is not the case in M. menda specimens. R e d e s c r i p t i o n: Size: Length 8.0 mm; width 3.0 mm. Form: As in Fig. 135 . Color: Castaneous, except each elytron with 3 faintly visible brown spots behind the middle of the disc. Head: Funicular antennomeres subfiliform, becoming progressively shorter and more triangular, capitulum about as long as combined length of funicular antennomeres, capitular antennomeres 9 and 10 oblong triangular ( Fig. 18 ), antennomere 11 obovate; eyes small; frons wider than width of eye (EW/FW 25/50). Thorax: Pronotum (Fig. 55) slightly oblong (PW/PL 110/120), side margin with well-developed tubercle, disc coarsely punctate; elytral asetiferous punctation profusely distributed throughout elytral discs (EL/EW 240/100). Abdomen: Pygidium subquadrate; distal margin of 6 th visible sternite slightly concave medially; aedeagus, phallic apex as in Fig. 108. V a r i a t i o n: Size: Length 5.5-8.0 mm; width 2.2-3.0 mm. The faintly developed elytral spots vary in expression and may be absent. N a t u r a l h i s t o r y: Specimens were captured during January through August at altitude ranging from 1700 to 2850 m .; most were taken in a Malaise trap. D i s t r i b u t i o n ( Fig.94 ): In addition to the lectotype , I examined 15 specimens : Colombia : Departamento de Boyaca , SFF Iguaue Cabaña , 5°25'N 73°27'W , 21-VI-6-VII-2001 , P.
