Brazil : Ratcliffe 2015c: 778 ; Moore et al. 2018b: 289 . Other: Endrödi 1966a: 424 ( Bolivia , Peru ), 1985a: 181 ( Bolivia , Peru ); Ratcliffe 2015c: 778 ( Bolivia , Colombia , Peru ); Moore et al. 2018b: 289 ( Bolivia , Colombia , Peru ). Note. According to Dupuis (2016b: 103 , 2017a: 55 ), Stenocrates clipeatus is often confused with S. rufipennis due to the drawings of the parameres in Endrödi (1966a: 424) . Stenocrates rufipennis is a common species in at least French Guiana and Suriname , while S. clipeatus may well be restricted to Peru and neighboring Andean countries. Unfortunately, Dupuis (2016b: 103) adds to the confusion by placing “ Essequibo ,” the origin of the lectotype of S. rufipennis , in Peru , rather than in Guyana as correctly indicated by Endrödi (1966a: 435) . We regard S. clipeatus as not occurring in the research area. All records of this species for the research area likely concern S. rufipennis .
