SYNTYPE
: (
MMUE
).
[Examined but label data not recorded].
Remarks.
SPAETH (1923)
synonymized
Physonota bipunctata
with
Chelymorpha longula
Boheman, 1857
and transferred it to the genus
Eutheria
Spaeth, 1909
. I have studied the
type
of the latter taxon and found that it is conspecific with
C. commutabilis
, for more information see remarks under that species. Due of the new synonymy I hereby restore species status of
E. bipunctata
.
Distribution.
Argentina
:
Mendoza
(
WAGENER 1877
