Anamiopteryx
Giglio-Tos, 1915
Jantsch (1991)
described
Eumiopteryx magna
on the basis of two males from Serra Norte, Pará state,
Brazil
. Examination of the
holotype
and
paratype
(
Fig. 3
a–c) reveals it to be a valid species, although referable instead to the closely related genus
Anamiopteryx
(based on the presence of more robust pronotal tubercles). Accordingly, we here establish the following combination:
Anamiopteryx magna
(
Jantsch, 1991
)
n. comb.
Eumiopteryx magna
