Note.
It is questionable if
A. chrysifrons
is really from
Brasil
. Kerremans described many species with the same or very similar locality data: “
Brésil
, Manufacturé de Tabac”. At that time tobacco was transported to
Brasil
from various parts of north-east South America for processing before transport to Europe.
