Note.
According to
Seidel et al. (2018: 395)
, specimens of
Coelocratus rufipennis
in the Burmeister collection at the MLUH (Martin-Luther-Universität, Zentralmagazin Naturwissenschaftlicher Sammlungen, Zoologische Sammlung, Halle (Saale),
Germany
) are labeled as being from Cayenne (
French Guiana
).
Gory and Percheron (1833: 109)
,
Burmeister (1842: 768)
,
Schenkling (1922: 21)
and
Blackwelder (1944: 260)
only mention
Brazil
, with the latter two copying the former two. We agree with
Seidel et al. (2018)
that the occurrence of this species in
French Guiana
is doubtful and remains to be confirmed.
