Guyana : Frey 1974a: 256 . French Guiana : Moser 1924: 159 (as Philochlaenia [sic] sparsesetosa ); Evans and Smith 2009: 291 . “Guianas”: Blackwelder 1944: 229 (as Philochlaenia [sic] sparsesetosa ). Other: Frey 1967: 89 (none). Note. Frey (1974a: 256) mentions Plectris sparsesetosa for Guyana , but not for the type locality French Guiana . We consider his “ Guyana ” a misinterpretation of the location “Guayana: Maroni” as mentioned in the original description by Moser (1924: 159) . The Maroni is the border river between Suriname and French Guiana , while there is no location of that name in Guyana . We are not aware of any records outside of French Guiana .
