Microcentrus perditus
(
Amyot & Serville, 1843a: 577
)
:
Goding 1928a: 397
synonymzed
Microcentrus perditus
(Amyot & Serville)
with
Centruchoides laticornis
Fowler
, listing it under a new name combination of
Centruchoides perdita
(Amyot & Serville)
, using Fowler’s collection sites of Bugaba and Volcán de
Chiriquí
for
C. laticornis
(
Fowler 1896e: 162
). McKamey lists
Centruchoides laticornis
Fowler
as a valid species found in
Panama
(
McKamey 1998: 300
) and perpetuates Goding’s citation of
Microcentrus perditus
(Amyot and Serville)
being found in
Panama
(
McKamey 1998: 301
).
Cryan
et al
. (2003: 14)
lists
Centruchoides laticornis
Fowler
as being found in
Panama
and
Honduras
and
Microcentrus perditus
(Amyot & Serville)
as only being found outside of the
United States
in Mexico and
Canada
(
Cryan
et al
. 2003: 35
), therefore Goding’s record of
M. perditus
’s presence in
Panama
was an error.
