LECTOTYPE : Gender not known. Type locality: Minas Geraes , Caraça ( Minas Gerais , Brazil ) ( MNHN ). CORPORAAL 1950 : 100 . Schenkling did not select a holotype , therefore, I invoke recommendation 73F of the ICZN (1999) and designate a lectotype for this nominal species. A d d i t i o n a l m a t e r i a l e x a m i n e d ( Fig. 99 ): In addition to the lectotype , I examined 25 specimens from: Brazil :. Estado do Rio de Janeiro , Novo Fiburgo, no other information available; Guanabara , Corcovado ,?- V-1969 , M. Alvarenga ; Itatiaya ,?- II- 1899 , 850 m, E. Gounelle ; Rio Tijuca ,?- XII-1884 , E. Gounelle ; Estado do São Paulo , Cantareira , 8-III-1960 , J. Halik ; Horto Florestal , Capital , 2-XII-1962 , J. Halik ; Estado do Minas Gerais , Caraça ,?- XII-1985 , E. Gounelle ; Estado do Santa Catarina , Theresopolis ,?-?-1887, Fruhstorfer ; Estado do Goias , no other information given. Specimens are deposited in: BMNH , MNHN , USNM , WFBM , and WOPC . D i a g n o s i s: Cranium black; antennae, pterothorax, and legs testaceous; pronotum bicolored, pronotal arch and pronotal collar testaceous, pronotum proper black; elytra tricolored, basal 1/2 testaceous, apical half mostly black, each elytron with 2 yellow fasciae, one lunulate at middle and one oblique behind middle, elytral apical 1/5 th testaceous; abdomen bicolored, visible ventrites I testaceous, other visible ventrites brown. R e d e s c r i p t i o n: Size: Length 9.5 mm ; width 2.2 mm . Form: As in Fig. 166 . Head: Frons wrinkled, frons wider than length of antennal pedicel; EW/FW 40/40. Thorax: Pronotum wrinkled at sides, coarsely punctate at middle, with 2 tumescenses, slight fissure at middle (PW/PL 111/100); elytral disc sculptured with striate, asetiferous punctures extending slightly beyond elytral basal 1/2, elytral apex rounded (EL/EW 390/85); metathoracic femur gradually increasing in diameter to femoral apex. Abdomen: Aedeagus as in Fig. 74. V a r i a t i o n: Size: Length 8.0- 10.5 mm ; width 2.0-3.0 mm. Other than body size, the available specimens are quite homogeneous. N a t u r a l h i s t o r y: Specimens were collected during December, February, and March, one at 850 m . N o t e s: The lectotype was examined, but the description is based on a homotype.
