Junior synonym of C. burgdorfi Friese, 1901 (Roig‑ Alsina, 2000). Type data: Schrottky (1908) proposed this variety of C. burgdorfi studying an undetermined number of females and males that belonged to the collection of Anisits collected in Asunción , Paraguay . Moure et al. (2007) were unable to locate the type series and unfortunately it was not found during the development of this article. Its current condition and depository are unknown. Comments: According to the information on the original description, the type specimens have two spots of yellowish pubescence on the mesonotum. However, the pilosity of C. burgdorfi is very variable, being possible to find specimens with the dorsal surface of the mesosoma completely covered by blackish or yellowish pubescence, including intermediary forms. This species has been recorded in Argentina (provinces of Misiones and Corrientes ) ( Roig‑Alsina, 2000 ), Brazil ( Ceará , Distrito Federal , Minas Gerais , Paraná , Pernambuco , Rio Grande do Sul , and São Paulo states) and in Paraguay (Central and Guairá departments) ( Moure et al., 2007 ).
