Remarks.
d'Orbigny
(1835)
originally also mentioned "et provincia Entre-Rios (republica Argentina)" as type locality. The type locality was restricted to "Bolivia, Dept. Santa Cruz" by
Breure (1975b
: 1146); see also
Breure 1973
.
Miquel (1989a
: 62) concluded that this species does not occur in Argentina. One of the syntypes from lot 1854.12.4.170, corresponding to
d'Orbigny
1837 [1834-1847]
: pl. 34 fig. 2, is here designated as lectotype (
design. n.
). One specimen each is missing from lots 1854.12.4.167 resp. 1854.12.4.169.
Current systematic position.
