Comment.
The above specimen perfectly corresponds to
B. salvini
morphotype I of
Brunke and Solodovnikov (2014)
: forebody with greenish metallic reflections, disc of head without impunctate area, frontal impression weak, basal segments of abdomen reddish, apex of abdomen pale, parameral arms with dense peg setae. The only other known specimens of morphotype I are the male and female types from El Zapote, Guatemala, also in the Sierra Madre mountain range. The close morphological consistency of the non-type male with the type series suggests that the concept of
B. salvini
should be restricted to morphotype I alone. However, formal changes, including the possible description of new species corresponding to morphotypes II and III, should wait until the unknown male of morphotype II is studied.
