Heniartes flavicans
(
Fabricius, 1798
)
Wygodzinsky (1947a)
mentioned the variability of the lengths of the setae of the posterior submedian stripe of the anterior lobe of the pronotum. In one of the specimens of
H. flavicans
from the Amazon basin only long setae are present on the submedian lines of the anterior lobe of the pronotum. In all other
H. flavicans
specimens examined, short setae occur on the submedian lines, agreeing with the observation of
Wygodzinsky (1947a)
. In all specimens the anterolateral angles of the collar have an area of short dense setae, one diagnostic character for this species.
