Previous records: ANTIOQUIA

(see

, p. 562),

Remarks:
Oideterus andrarius
is only known from
Colombia
, mainly associated with the Andean region, in an altitudinal range between
1730 and
2300
m (
Fig. 3
). The species is recorded for the first time for
Caldas
,
Huila
and
Quindío
Departments. New records come from protected areas and habitats in restoration process. One of the localities (
Bremen
forest,
Quindío
), has been in restoration process for 13 years (
Herrera-Rangel
et al.
2015
). Another new record originated at the Merenberg farm (
Huila
), which is currently a private natural reserve (with almost 300 ha of extension) with 150 ha of secondary forests and 150 ha of pastures (
Carvajal 2014
).
Geographic distribution:
Colombia (Antioquia, Caldas*, Huila*, Quindío*, Risaralda, and Valle del Cauca). *New locality. See
