Breuning (1943)
described
Tucumaniella
in
Apomecynini
to include
T. brevipes
, a species from
Tucumán
(
Argentina
). Except for
Breuning (1971)
, the species has been reported only in catalogs and checklists and was never illustrated. Isabelle Z̧rcher-Pfander (NHMB) kindly sent us photographs of the
holotype
(
Figs 37–41
), which allowed us to recognize that the species is
C. volvula
. Thus,
Tucumaniella
is a junior synonym of
Cacostola
, a genus of Onciderini, and not
Apomecynini
. According to
Breuning (1943)
the
holotype
of
T. brevipes
is a male. However, it is actually a female.
Currently,
C. volvula
is known from
French Guiana
,
Brazil
(
Rondônia
, Maranh„o,
Ceará
,
Bahia
,
Piauí
,
Espírito Santo
),
Bolivia
(
Beni
,
Cochabamba
,
Pando
,
Santa Cruz
), and
Paraguay
(
