Carineta fasciculata
Germar, 1821
Cicada
fasciculata
Germar 1821: 97
(S ã o Paulo,
Brazil
).
Carineta limpida
Torres 1948: 121
(Puerto Bemberg, Misiones,
Argentina
and Cufré,
San José Department
,
Uruguay
).
Remarks.
Sanborn (2019a)
was able to clarify the application of the taxon after locating the
type
specimen of Germar’s species.
Carineta fasciculata
was determined to be identical to
Carineta limpida
and the two were synonymized. Most previous references to
Carineta fasciculata
were determined to be
Carineta bilineosa
Walker, 1858
which was resurrected in
Sanborn (2019a)
. Therefore, the reference to
Carineta limpida
in
Ruffinelli (1970)
represents
Carineta fasciculata
.
The type of
Carineta fasciculata
is deposited in the Zoological Museum, Ivan Franko National University of
Lviv
,
L’viv
,
Ukraine
(
Sanborn 2019a
). The
allotype
male from Cufré,
Uruguay
and
the Argentine
paratype
female of
Carineta limpida
are deposited in the Museo de La Plata Entomological Collection with the
holotype
female from
Argentina
deposited in the Fundación Miguel Lillo,
Tucumán
,
Argentina
(
Marino de Remes Lenicov
et al
. 2015
).
Distribution.
After verifying the species concept (
Sanborn 2019a
), the species has been reported from Misiones Province,
Argentina
, the states of S ã o Paulo and
Santa Catarina
,
Brazil
and southern
Uruguay
(
Metcalf 1963c
;
Duffels & van der Laan 1985
;
Sanborn 2013
,
2019a
;
Sanborn & Heath 2014
). The species is associated with the coastal states, provinces and departments between the region north of the Río de la Plata of
Uruguay
and S ã o Paulo,
Brazil
with an inland extension to Misiones Province
Argentina
.
Ruffinelli (1970)
reported an example of
Carineta limpida
from Cufré,
San José
in southern
Uruguay
(probably the
allotype
of
Torres (1948))
.
