Remarks
Euragallia declivata
was originally described based on a single specimen from
Rondônia State
, North
Brazil
, by
Osborn (1923)
.
Oman
(1938)
reported it also from
Brazil
, but from
Mato Grosso State
, and identified
two specimens
from
Bolivia
, with some doubt, as belonging to this species. Specimens at hand are from
Brazil
(
Paraná
and
Santa Catarina
States) and
Paraguay
. Features of the male and female specimens were illustrated by
Oman
(1938)
. This species appears to be close to
E. capixaba
because of the identical colour pattern and several characteristics of the internal genitalia, differing however, on the size of the basal processes of the aedeagus and the external genitalia from both male and female (
Dutra and Coelho 1992
).
