), I suggested that the two species could by synonyms, but delayed placing one of them in synonymy until additional material was available. Based on the new records cited below, there is little doubt that only one species is at hand.

<paragraph pageId="14" pageNumber="283">There is considerable variation in the development of the microsculpture on the head and pronotum of this species ranging from almost completely lacking to moderately coarsely and densely granulate, and in the density and coarseness of punctation between the eyes and on the center of the pronotum. However, all degrees of variation can be found in specimens from throughout the range so there is no justification for recognizing more than one species. Most adults of this species were collected by beating dead leaves, particularly of oak trees and coffee shade trees.</paragraph>
