Review of Imatidiini genera (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae: Cassidinae) Author Sekerka, Lukáš text Acta Entomologica Musei Nationalis Pragae 2014 2014-04-30 54 1 257 314 journal article 10.5281/zenodo.5301732 0374-1036 5301732 7912B4FE-3EF1-47AC-8EDE-ABF0054EE863D Xenispa elegans ( Baly, 1875 ) stat. restit. & comb. nov. Demotispa elegans Baly, 1875: 75 ( type locality: ‘Ecuador’; ST in BMNH). Remarks. This species was synonymized with X. cyanipennis by SPAETH (1938) , however, the latter has uniformly yellow antennae and much coarser punctation of the elytra. I was not able to locate the type specimen(s) in BMNH, however, I have seen several specimens collected recently in Ecuador , and they perfectly agree with the primary description, having bicolorous antennae, coarser punctation and being somewhat narrower. Therefore I restore species status of X. elegans and Ecuador is removed from the range of X. cyanipennis . Distribution. Ecuador ( BALY 1875 ).
