Many large species of Fidicina and Fidicinoides with infuscated wings have been classified at one time or another as F. mannifera ( Sanborn 2013 ) . Fidicina mannifera is the smallest, although some F. obscura can be of similar size to large specimens, of the Peruvian Fidicina species with a wingspan less than 125 mm . The species can be distinguished further by the timbal cover of the male not extending below the metascutellar plate, the male operculum forming an approximate equilateral triangle, the fore femora proximal spine is parallel to the femoral axis, the apical femoral spine is almost upright, and the lateral branch of the uncus is flat and does not recurve. DISTRIBUTION. The species has been recorded from the Antilles, Bolivia , Brazil , Colombia , Costa Rica , Ecuador , French Guiana, Guyana , Nicaragua , Panama , Paraguay , Peru , and Suriname ( Metcalf 1963a ; Duffels & van der Laan 1985 ; Dorval et al. 2011 ; Maccagnan & Martinelli 2011 ; Sanborn 2011a , b; 2013 ; 2014a ; 2018b ; 2019b ; Dias et al . 2017 ). Some of these references may correspond to one or more of the species similar to F. mannifera described by Boulard & Martinelli (1996) . Jacobi (1951) reported the species from Sapito, Peru . Pogue (1996) reported the species from Pakitza and Tambopata.
