Remarks
A male and female from Río
Madre de Dios
in the Tambopata National Reserve (Dept. Tambopata) in the collection of USNM deserve special mention since they represent the first definite record of this highly variable species from elsewhere than the
type
locality. Both specimens have the armature of all tibiae comparatively more pronounced than any examples of the large
type
series, which comprises
216 specimens
in total. Body lengths of the two specimens in USNM are male 61.0 mm and female
64.5 mm
, and hence are in the usual range of
L. panguana
. The authors have also seen photographs of
L. panguana
taken at Manú National Park in the
Madre de Dios Region
, but there are no reference specimens.
