TYPE SPECIES. Ollanta mexicana Distant, 1905a: 141 . (Atoyac, Vera Cruz, Mexico) Remarks. Species of the genus are distinguished by their prominent eyes projecting laterally beyond the anterior angles of the pronotum, the head being broader than the mesonotum, a globose postclypeus, large timbal covers exposing only a portion of the timbal dorsally with rounded anterior covering timbal cavity laterally, anteriorly narrowing lateral pronotal margins, abdomen about as long as length between apex of postclypeus and posterior cruciform elevation ( Distant 1905d ). The genus can be distinguished from Pacarina Distant, 1905d by the vertex in the are of the ocelli being about the same as the length of the frons rather that being longer than the frons as it is in Pacarina , the large timbal covers that enclose the timbal cavity laterally, the more globose postcylpeus, and larger body size ( Distant 1905d ; 1906 ; Sanborn et al. 2012 ). Distribution. The genus has been reported from the Caribbean and Central America with records from the Bahamas , Belize , Costa Rica , Dominican Republic , El Salvador , Guatemala , Honduras , Mexico , Nicaragua , and the Turks & Caicos ( Metcalf, 1963a ; Sanborn & Maes 2012 ; Maes et al. 2012 ; Sanborn, 2013 ; 2014 ).
