)
Fidicina bogotana

.

REMARKS.—The greenish tawny head and thorax with ochraceous abdomen gives this species a very similar general appearance to
Dorisiana metcalfi
. However, the presence of a curved timbal cover with ventral margin parallel to the long body axis distinguishes it as a species of
Guyalna
rather than
Dorisiana
. The male abdominal tergites are translucent and body lengths range from
24–26 mm
.
DISTRIBUTION.—The species has been reported from
Argentina
,
Brazil
,
Colombia
,
Ecuador
, and
Peru
(
Metcalf 1963a
; Sanborn 2013; 2020b;

) with a recent range expansion into
Venezuela
(
Sanborn 2020a
). The species has been reported from Coca,
Orellana
province, Santa Inez (
Jacobi 1907a
;

).
