.
Remarks
. The species is known only from
Argentina
with examples being reported from
Mendoza
, Río Negro, and
San Luis
Provinces (
Torres 1942
;
1958a
). The record for San Juan Province by
Delétang (1919)
was considered erroneous by
Torres (1958a)
. We captured specimens in
La Pampa Province
. The species is associated with the Espinal and Monte floristic provinces (
Sanborn
et al.
2011a
).
