Remarks.
This species was designated by
Enderlein (1936)
as type-species of
Maruina
. The description of
Müller (1895)
lacks detailed morphological descriptions and illustrations, making it difficult to provide a diagnosis for this species. The material studied in the redescription provided by
Barretto (1954)
is currently the type material of
M
.
(
M
.)
barrettoi
, as discussed above (
Bravo 2005
). The
holotype
of this species seems to be lost. Müllers’s illustrations of dorsal view of head and thoracic segments of the larva, detail of respiratory horn of pupa in three views, adult wing, and dorsal and lateral views of male genitalia could be able to help identify new material of this species, but type locality is not accurate.
