Coptoprepes campanensis
Ramírez, 2003: 87
(male
holotype
and female
paratype
from
Chile
, Quillota province, Palmas de Ocoa, La Campana Natl. Park, in AMNH, not reexamined).
Diagnosis:
Females can be distinguished from other
Coptoprepes
species by the long, contorted female copulatory ducts (see Ramírez 2003: fig. 41D). Males are similar to those of
C. ecotono
n. sp.
by lacking a RTA, but have a large, bifid, heavily sclerotized median apophysis (
Fig. 3
c, d; Ramírez 2003: fig. 39).
Description:
Male and female described by Ramírez (2003).
Distribution:
This species is rather densely sampled in relict forest in central
Chile
, from Elqui province in the North, to Región Metropolitana of Santiago. Here we report an isolated southern record about
350 km
far from the known distribution.
