Abstract: The type specimens (all current categories) of Chrysomelidae s.l. deposited in this Museum are listed; 125 names are recorded, 85 of them (68 percent) are represented here by name-bearing types ('primary' types), five of them dubious. The family is taken in its broadest sense, including the Bruchinae, Hispinae (along with the former Cassidinae), and other groups sometimes considered as separate families. The specific and subspecific names were alphabetically filed, followed by the generic ones as they were spelled in the original publication, or the generic and specific names in the case of subspecies and varieties. Later combinations and/or current binomina are mentioned insofar as these are known to the authors. Two lists are added: 1. of specimens labelled as types of unavailable names, chiefly those not found in the literature, and supposedly not published, and 2. of specimens labelled as types, but not originally included as such, and published or not after the original description.

Key words: Chrysomelidae; Coleoptera; Type specimens; Argentina.

Resumen: Catálogo de los tipos de Chrysomelidae sensu lato (Insecta, Coleoptera, Polyphaga) depositados en el Museo Argentino de Ciencias Naturales, Buenos Aires. Se catalogan los ejemplares típicos, de todas las categorías aceptadas, de Chrysomelidae s.l. conservados en este museo; se registran 125 nombres, 85 de ellos (68 por ciento) representados aquí por tipos portadores de nombres (tipos 'primarios'), cinco de ellos dudosos. La familia se toma en su concepto más amplio, incluyendo a las Bruchinae, las Hispinae (con las anteriores Cassidinae) y otros grupos a veces considerados como familias separadas. Los nombres específicos y subespecíficos fueron ordenados alfabéticamente; a estos siguen los de los géneros, así como se publicaron originalmente, o de los géneros y especies en el caso de las subespecies y variedades. Se mencionan las combinaciones ulteriores y/o los binomios en uso, hasta donde son conocidos por los autores. Se agregan dos listas: 1. de los ejemplares rotulados como tipos, de nombres no disponibles, principalmente aquellos no hallados en la bibliografía, y supuestamente no publicados, y 2. de los ejemplares rotulados como tipos, pero no incluidos originalmente como tales, publicados o no después de la descripción original.

Palabras clave: Chrysomelidae; Ejemplares tipo; Argentina.

A catalog of the typical specimens (all current categories) of species of Chrysomelidae s.l. housed in the Entomological Division of this Museum is presented, referred to 125 names: 25 holotypes (four of them dubious, they may be syntypes), 95 syntypes (six of them dubious) of 55 names, 179 paratypes (which include 6 allotypes). Of these 125 names, 85 of them (68 percent) are here represented by name-bearing types ('primary types'). The family is here taken in its broadest sense, including the Bruchinae, the Hispinae (with the former Cassidinae) and other groups sometimes considered as separate families. The classification of Lawrence & Newton (1995) is here followed.

Specific and subspecific names are alphabetically entered, as is usual in type specimen catalogs; each name is followed by the generic one, and the subgeneric one if it was mentioned, spelled as it was in the original binomen, or by the generic and specific ones in the case of subspecies and varieties. An abbreviated bibliographic citation follows, as well as a listing of the types, if these were mentioned, starting with those deposited in this Museum. An account of the type specimens actually here housed follows, with their label data. According to the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature (4th edition, 1999), allotypes are not 'namebearing types'. If the country is not mentioned, Argentina is meant; in every other case, the country is mentioned first. Some specimens bear a registration number, entered in the Entomology Division register; numbers under 10000 correspond to the old general register of the Museum. Later nomenclatural or taxionomical changes are added, insofar as these are known to the authors.

For the identification of types not formally designated in the original publication (art. 72.4 of the Code), evidences from the labels as they were written in the collections examined by authors of names, are considered. When the authors did not formally designate a holotype, or its equivalent, and did not mention how many specimens were examined, it is assumed that they had a series of syntypes (recommendation 73 F of the Code), eventually 'sole syntypes'.

Some specimens in the collection are labelled as types of names not found in the literature, and assumed not to have been published. These names are probably not available in the sense of the Code; however, in order to assist in future research, they are separately listed.

Specimens labelled as types, but not included in the original publication, and specimens designated as types after the original publication date, published or not, cannot be accepted as included in the type series; however, also in order to assist in future research, they are included in a third list.

Burmeister did not label his types nor other specimens, save sometimes with locality labels; he put, to the left of the specimens or series, a handwritten identification label, fastened with pins to the bottom of the drawer, and added sometimes a vague distribution indication, e.g. «Patagonia» or even «Argentina». The type condition is inferred from the publications, and one of us (AOB) added labels, handwritten on red cardboard, to the specimens deemed to be holotypes or syntypes.

Brèthes often marked his type specimens with a small square piece of red paper, making their identification in the drawers easier.

Bruch used to copy the specific names of the types on his own labels, most of them with a red frame (a few with a green frame), and to add to the same pin a small, folded piece of paper with the name handwritten by the respective author, seemingly cut from a letter; frequently only a part of the generic name, and/or a part of the author's name are legible.

Some specimens in the Bruch collection are labelled as 'cotypes'. If the author did not state how many specimens he had examined, they must be considered as syntypes. We suspect that some of the 'cotypes' in our Museum were not even included in the typical series, but it is not possible to assure their condition. In order to assist in future research, we include them in the present paper as syntypes or as paratypes, according to each context (Bruch used the term 'Cotypus' sometimes in the sense of syntypus and sometimes in the sense of paratypus). Lastly, one name (Probaenia crenata ab. interrupta Monrós & Viana 1947: 273, pl. xxii: 91) although not an available name, is included within this list because of the same reason.

No type specimens were found of 1. Magalostomis (Scaphigenia) bubalus bubaloides Monrós (1954: 99-102), of which some paratypes are said to be in MACN, BRC and GPC; 2. Uroplata oglobini [sic] Monrós & Viana (1947: 288- 289), of which some 'cotypes' are said to be in MACN; 3. Stereoma laevicollis orophila Monrós (1954: 224-225), of which some paratypes are said to be in MACN and BRC; 4. Megalopus schaeferi Monrós (1947c: 211-212), of which one paratypes is said to be in MACN ex ABC.

Unless otherwise stated, the specimens are glued to cards held by an entomological pin.

There are two further spec. labelled «4174» [handwr.] and «Tucuman» [print. on green paper]. In the old general register of the Museum, the entry 4174 corresponds to a large ensemble of insects collected in Tucumán by Dinelli, entered in 1898.

Bruch» print., date handwr.; one of them «Typus» print.. on pale green paper; one of us (AOB) added «Megalopus / Jacobyi / Bruch 1908 / Syntypus» [«Syntypus?»] handwr. on red cardboard, black frame. All ex BRC.
Notes: The type condition of the last spec. is dubious, as it lacks an original «Typus» label. Monrós (1947c: 208, 212-213, pl. 5: 4, f. 51e) recorded it under Megalopus (Mucromegalopus).

juncta [Cephalodonta]. Weise 1906: 222. Brasil VII.1901.
One synt. «Rep. Brasil / VII.1901 / C. Bruch» print., date handwr.; «Col. / C.

Notes: Considered a synonym of Sceloenopla pretiosa (Baly 1858) by Uhmann (1937b: 206, 208- 209, who examined a type in ZMB); recorded as Sceloenopla (Sceloenopla) pretiosa Baly by Monrós & Viana (1947: 186-187, pl. 23) who examined a spec. of juncta labelled «Typus» in MACN.

lacordairei [Temnodachrys]. Monrós 1954: 200, f. 30b. Jujuy, 1 parat. in MACN. Holot. from Jujuy Prov.: Ledesma in FIML; other parat. in MC, APC.

Note: Recorded as Xenochalepus (s. str.) faustus Weise ab. laetificus by Monrós & Viana (1947: 238- 239, pl. xv: 59) who examined this syntype.

lanuginosa [Urodera]. Monrós 1954: 239-240, f. 35b. Santiago del Estero Prov.: Salado River 1 parat.; Santa Fe Prov.: Fives Lille, leg. Weiser, 1 parat., both in MACN ex BRC. Holot., parat. Santiago del Estero: Salado River in MC; 1 parat. in APC.
Two parat., one of them «Sgo. del Estero / Río Salado / Wagner col.» print., black frame; the other «Fives Lille / S.F. Weiser» print. Both: «Paratipo» handwr., red frame, «Col. / C. Bruch» print., and «Urodera / lanuginosa / mihi [handwr.] / F. Monrós det. 1952 [print.]» on pink paper. Ex BRC.
Note: Moldenke (1981: 111) erected the new genus Paraurodera and mentioned that it is doubtful to place Urodera lanuginosa in it.]

liliacea [Lema]. Burmeister 1877: 54-55. Paraguay.
Two synt., pinned, one of them «Paraguay» print. on dark green paper, the other without labels. One of us (AOB) added to both «Lema / liliacea / Burmeister / Syntypus» handwr. on red cardboard. Ex HB.
Note: Recorded by Monrós (1951: 476) as Lema (Lema) liliacea Burmeister = L. quinquevittata Pic 1941.

limbata [Cephalolia]. Pic 1928c: 4.
One synt. «Delta / Paraná Guazú / 29.11.929. Bosq» handwr. by Bruch; «Col. / C.

M. Viana [handwr. by Viana] / Museo Argentino de Ciencias Naturales [print.]» on white cardboard with a black frame. Ex BRC.
Notes: Recorded as Himantidium limbatum by Monrós & Viana (1947: 160-161, pl. v: 21) who examined the type series, and as Cephaloleia limbata by Descarpentries & Villiers (1959: 139) who report one parat. in PC. The type locality corresponds to the Paraná River Delta, in Buenos Aires Prov. Cephaloleia is the correct spelling.

Note: Under the heading «Chlamisus melochiae» there are in the drawer two specimens from Concordia, Entre Ríos Province, Argentina. Both are rotulated «Paratypus», and one of them is rotulated also «Chlamisus sphaeralceae». At the Instituto Lillo, Tucumán, where the other types are housed, the specimens are also rotulated «sphaeralceae», not «melochiae». In the rather extensive paper of Monrós, Chlamisus melochiae is the only species collected on Sphaeralcea sp. (Malvaceae) and on Melochia sp. (Sterculiaceae), no other species come from any of these plants. Probably Monrós wished to name the species after a nourishing plant, selecting at first instance sphaeralceae, and shifted later to melochiae, but he failed to replace the labels from the specimens. Therefore I decided to hold the specimens as authentic, and we add to them an additional label reading «Chlamisus melochiae Monrós 1952. Acta zoologica lilloana 10: 600-602» print. on white paper.

meridionalis [Saxinis]. Monrós 1954: 258-260, f. 377-380. 2 parat. Jujuy, ex BRC; 2 parat. without locality data, all of these in MACN. Holot. , allot. ., several parat. Córdoba Prov.: Pampa de Olaen I.1946 in MC, other parat. in BM, USNM, MLP, DEI, MC, MVC.

Note: The spec. are rotulated as paratypes, but they could be syntypes.

nigrovittis [Metallactus]. Jacoby 1908: 855. Argentina: Chaco [perhaps a single spec., as only one measurement is given].
Holot.? synt.? , not even a type? «Rep. Argentina / Gob. Chaco / 190_ / C. Bruch» printed; «Cotypus» printed on pale green paper; «Metallactus / nigrovittis / Jac.» handwr. by Bruch, red frame. Ex BRC.
Note: The type condition is dubious, as the only identification label is handwr. by Bruch, not by Jacoby.

notaticeps [Brachycoryna]. Pic 1928c: 4.
Two synt. One of them «Typus» handwr. by Bruch on pale green paper; «Hualfin / Catam. 17.1.23» handwr. by Bruch; «Col. / C.

Notes:. Descarpentries & Villiers (1959) state that the holotype is housed in the Muséum National d'Histoire Naturelle in Paris. Three specimens labelled as paratypes are deposited in the USNM. Staines & Staines (1997:17) consider all the specimens, those in Paris and those in Buenos Aires, as syntypes.

persimilis [Griburius]. Burmeister 1877: 66. Buenos Aires.
One synt., pinned «Buen. / Ayres» print. on dark green paper. One of us (AOB) added «Griburius / persimilis / Burmeister 1877 / Typus» handwr. on red cardboard. Ex HB.

Notes: The spec. was filed by Viana in the drawer under Anacassis cribrum (Klug 1829) in the collection of MACN. Hincks (1950: 509) considered that Chelymorpha Chevrolat 1838 is a synonym of Cyphomorpha Hope [1840]. With «Banda Oriental» Uruguay is meant.

porcata [Lema]. Burmeister 1877: 56-57. Paraguay, 1 spec.
Two synt., pinned, one of them «Paraguay» printed on dark green paper, the other without labels. One of us (AOB) added «Lema / porcata / Burmeister 1877» and «Syntypus» handwr. on red cardboard. Ex HB.
Notes: The second spec. could not even be a type, as Burmeister mentions only one spec.. Monrós (1948: 212) suggests this could be a variety of L. orbignyi (Guérin 1844).

porteri [Ernoporus]. Brèthes 1928: 213-214. Chile: Quillota, leg. Porter.

Both «Cotypus» print. on red cardboard; «Stenispa / proxima / Monrós - Viana / Cotipo [handwr.] / Museo Argentino de Ciencias Naturales [print.]» on red cardboard.
Notes: Gaedicke & Döbler (1971: 358) report two synt. from Entre Ríos Prov. in DEI. Under «R. Bravo» the Paraná Bravo Stream is meant. Staines & Staines (1997:18) mention that seven specimens from Monrós collection are in the USNM.

quadriplagiata [Epitrix]. Bryant 1951: 939-940, f. 2. [Buenos Aires Prov.]: Balcarce II.1948, 9 spec. leg. Hepper; La Rioja Prov.: Patquía XII.1932, 2 spec. on potato plants.

Notes: Monrós & Viana (1947: 259-260, pl. xvii: 68) examined this type in MACN. Descarpentries & Villiers (1959) did not mention the genus.

striolatus [Chlamisus]. Bokermann 1964: 65-67, f. 1-5. Holot. and parat. Mato Grosso: Cuiabá 7.XII.1962, in WBC; parat. in MG, CM, CSC.

subaenea [Paria]. Jacoby 1900: 510. La Plata, several spec. received from Mons. Clavareau, Brussels.
Three synt. on cards, on one pin, «Rep. Argentina / Prov. Buenos Aires / 190_ / C. Bruch» print.; «Cotypus» print. on pale green paper, «Paria / subaenea / Jac.» handwr. by Bruch, red frame; «Paria /subaenea» handwr., cut.
Note: Bechyné (1953: 121, 272) downgraded the species to an aberratio of Periparia boggianii, stating that they differ only by color, a quite variable feature.

subaenescens [Cryptocephalus]. Jacoby 1908: 843. Tucumán, in MLP and author's coll.
One synt. «Rep. Argentina / Prov. Tucumán / 190_ / C. Bruch» print., «Cotypus» print. on pale green paper, «Cryptocephalus / subaeneus / Jac.» handwr. by Bruch, red frame, ex BRC.

sulcatifrons [Stenispa]. Pic 1928b: 101. Corrientes Prov.: San Roque II.1920, leg. Bosq, in BRC.
Holot.? synt.?, «Dibujado» [drawn] handwr., «Corrientes / San Roque / II-920 - Bosq» handwr. by Bruch, «Col. / C. Bruch» print., «50916» handwr., red frame, «Typus» print. on red cardboard, «Stenispa / sulcatifrons / Pic» handwr. by Bruch, green frame, «Stenispa / sulcatifrons n.sp.» handwr., cut, there are some other ilegible traits; «Stenispa / sulcatifrons / Pic / Det. M. Viana [handwr.] / Museo Argentino de Ciencias Naturales [print., obverse] / X-1947 [handwr.] [reverse]».
Notes: Pic did not mention how many spec. he examined, but the only repository recorded is BRC, where a single spec. is kept. Descarpentries & Villers (1959) state that there is no type in PC. Moreover, this spec. was labelled «Typus», not «Cotypus» by Bruch. So the holot. condition could be inferred. Monrós & Viana (1947: 166, 167, pl. ii: 10) examined the spec.

sympathica [Temnodachrys]. Monrós 1954: 202- 203, f. 308, 314. Córdoba: Alta Gracia: La Granja, 3 parat. ex BRC; 1 parat. without locality label, both in MACN. Holot. Córdoba: Calamuchita, leg. Viana XII.1938, in MC. Other parat. in JBC, APC, and MC.

Both: «Paratipo» handwr. on white paper, red frame, and «Dachrys / sympathica / mihi [handwr.] / F. Monrós det. 1951 [print.]» on pink paper.
Note: In the registration book of the Entomological Division of MACN the entering 17235 refers to an assemble of insects collected by A. Pozzi and A. Zotta during a trip to Jujuy Prov., XIXII. 1925.

tandilensis [Chalepus]. Bruch 1933: 220-224, f. 3, pl. iii: 6. [Buenos Aires Prov.:] Tandil: Sierra de las Animas XII.1930 (the 'typical' spec., 15.X.1932 a 'later' spec.), all leg. Koehler.
One synt. «Typus» and «Foto» handwr. by Bruch on pale green paper, «Tandil / Sierra d.l. Animas / P. Köhler. XII-930» handwr. by Bruch, «Col. / C. Bruch» print., «50971» handwr., red frame, «Ch. (Xenochalepus) / tandilensis / Bruch [handwr. by Bruch] / C. Bruch determ. [print.]» on white paper, black frame, «Xenochalepus / (Xenochalepus) / tandilensis / Bruch / Det. M. Viana [handwr.] / Museo Argentino de Ciencias Naturales [print.] [obverse] / X-1947 [handwr.] [reverse]» on white cardboard, black frame. Ex BRC.
Notes: No type was formally designated in the original description. A syntype from the Daguerre collection is now in the USNM (Ward et al 1976]. Gaedicke & Döbler (1971: 361) report a synt. in DEI. Staines & Riley (1994: 219) refer Chalepus tandilensis to the subgenus Xenochalepus. Monrós & Viana (1947: 240-241, pl. xvii: 63) upgraded the subgenus Xenochalepus to the generic rank.

tesselata [Poecilaspis]. Burmeister 1870: 276. Tucumán.
One synt. on a card, but originally pinned, «Tucumán» print. on green paper, «Col. / Antigua» print., «Typus» print. on red cardboard; «tesselata Nob.» handwr. by Burmeister on a label fastened to the bottom of the drawer. Ex HB.
Note: Recorded under subgenus Poecilaspis by Spaeth (1914: 47); and under genus Botanochara by Blackwelder (1946: 742).

trinotata [Mecistomela (Coraliomela) thoracica var.]. Berg 1900: 255. Paraguay, in MACN.
Holot., pinned, «Paraguay» print. on green paper, «Col. / Antigua» print., «51113» handwr., red frame, «Typus» print. on red paper, «trinotata Berg» handwr. by Berg on yellowish paper, «Coraliomela / thoracica / ab: trinotata (Berg) / Det. M. Viana [handwr.] / Museo Argentino de Ciencias Naturales [print.] [obverse] / X-1947 [handwr.] [reverse]» on white cardboard.
Note: Recorded as Coraliomela thoracica ab. trinotata by Monrós & Viana (1947: 180-181, pl. x: 31) who examined this spec.

tucumana [Cephalolia]. Weise 1904: 439. Tucumán IX.1897, C. Bruch.

Weise determ. 1904» print., «Cephalolia / tucumana / Weise / Det. M. Viana [handwr.] / Museo Argentino de Ciencias Naturales [print.]» on white cardboard, black frame. Ex BRC.
Notes: Blackwelder (1946: 720) recorded the
species under Cephaloleia, which is the correct spelling. Monrós & Viana (1947: 163-164, pl. iv: 16) put C. saccharina Maulik 1929 as a synonym.

tucumana [Octhispa]. Weise 1922: 31-32. Tucumán 1100 m a.s.l., 28.I.1905, ex BRC.
Holot., «Typus» print. on pale green paper, «Argentina / Prov. Tucumán / 1100 m 28/I/ 1905 / Steinbach» print., date handwr., «Col. / C. Bruch» print., «51054» handwr., red frame, «Octhispa / tucumana / Ws.» handwr. by Bruch, red frame, «Octhisp / tucum» handwr., cut, «Octhispa / fossulata / Chap. / Det. M. Viana [handwr.] / Museo Argentino de Ciencias Naturales [print.] [obverse] / X-1947 [handwr.] [reverse]» on white cardboard, black frame.
Note: Monrós & Viana (1947: 307-308, pl.xxvii: 119) examined this spec., and synonymized O. tucumana with O. fossulata Chapuis 1877.

tucumanensis [Cryptocephalus]. Jacoby 1908: 837 Argentina: Tucumán, in MLP and author's coll.
One synt. «Rep. Argentina / Prov. Tucumán / 15.VII.1900 / C. Bruch» print., date handwr., «Cotypus» print. on pale green paper, «Cryptocephalus / tucumanensis / Jac.» handwr. by Bruch, red frame. Ex BRC.

tucumanus [Chlamisus]. Monrós 1952b: 622-625, f. 92, 117, 149. Tucumán 20.I.1907, 4 parat.; id. but 10.XI.1907, 2 parat.; id. but 14.IX.1929, leg. Box, 1 parat.; id. but leg. Girard, 3 parat. All of them ex BRC in MACN. Holot. Tucumán: Tafí Viejo, 1914, allot. Tucumán, leg. Girard 1914, several parat. in FIML,. other parat. in MC and SCT.
Four parat., «Rep. Argentina / Prov. Tucumán / 20 I 1907 [on three, 10 II 1907 on one] / C. Bruch» print., date handwr., «Col. / C. Bruch» print. with red ink, «53390 [on three, 53387 on one]» handwr., red frame. 3 parat. «Tuc. 1-1917 Girard [on two, 1-1918 on one]» handwr., «16845» handwr., red frame. 1 parat. «Argentina / Tucumán / 14 Nov. 1929» print., date handwr., «H.E. Box / Collector» printed, «Col. / C. Bruch» print. with red ink, «53388» handwr., red frame. All: «Paratypus» print. on yellow cardboard, and «Chlamisus / tucumanus / mihi [handwr.] / F. Monrós det. 1949 [print.]» on pink paper. 1 parat. ex AMC «R.A. Tucuman / Reserva Forestal / XI.949 / Wygodzinsky» handwr. on white paper, remainings of a black frame, «Paratipo» handwr., red frame, «Chlamisus / tucumanus / Monrós [handwr.] / F. Monrós det. 1952 [print.]» on white paper, remainings of a black frame.

unicolor [Metallactus]. Jacoby 1908: 853-854. Brasil, 1 spec. obtained from Bruch.
One spec. «Rep. Chile / 190_ / C. Bruch» print., «Cotypus» print. on pale green paper, «Metallactus / unicolor / Jac.» handwr. by Bruch, red frame.
Note: Chile was not included in the original description, but the country mentioned on the label may be a mistake of Bruch, or of Jacoby; Jacoby stated that he obtained one specimen from Bruch, but the label «Cotypus» suggests more than one spec. The status of the spec. is, at best, confuse.

unicolor [Physonota]. Burmeister 1870: 280. Mendoza.
One synt., on a card, it has a pin hole, a card with a pupal exuvia, «Mendoza» print. on green paper, «Col. / Antigua» print., «649» print., «Typus» print. on red cardboard'. One of us (AOB) added «Physonota / unicolor / Burmeister 1870 / Typus» handwr. on red cardboard; «unicolor Nob. / Rep. Arg. Br.» handwr. by Burmeister on white paper, black frame, fastened to the bottom of the drawer.
Note: Recorded as Anacassis fuscata subsp. unicolor by Spaeth (1914: 50) and by Blackwelder (1946: 742).

varians [Agathomerus]. Monrós 1945: 146-149, f. 3. 2 parat. Tucumán ex BRC in MACN. 10 cotypes Salta: Coronel Moldes, Lerma Valley 1100 m a.s.l., I.1945, 8 of them in MC, 2 in MLP, on Alternanthera phylloxeroides.
Two parat. «Rep. Argentina / Prov. Tucumán / 190_ / C. Bruch» print., one of them «Agathomerus / quadrimaculatus / (J. Guérin) [handwr.] / F. Monrós det. 946 [print.]».
Notes: The type condition is dubious. Both spec. seem to be the ones mentioned by Monrós, but they lack both type and identification labels. In the same paper Monrós (1945: 155) synonymized varians with quadrimaculatus Guérin 1845, and presumably he removed the labels therefore. Monrós (1947c: 183-185, f. 43, pl. 5: 1) included quadrimaculatus in the subgenus Mesagathomerus.

vianai [Stenispa]. Uhmann 1938: 365-366. Buenos Aires Prov.: Tigre, leg. Viana XI.1937, 2 , 3 on Scirpus giganteus. Holot. and allot. in JDC.

Viana [handwr.] / Museo Argentino de Ciencias Naturales [print.] [obverse] / X-1947 [handwr.] [reverse] « on white cardboard, black frame.
Notes: Gaedicke & Doebler (1971: 362) reported 2 parat., and , in DEI. Although Ward et al. (1976) mentioned that both holot. and allot. were deposited in the USNM, Staines & Staines (1997: 22) mentioned they have been unable to find the holot., the only specimen deposited is the allot..

vittata [Microtheca]. Weise 1922: 30. Santiago del Estero. Perhaps a single specimen, as only one measure is given.
One synt. «Rep. Argentina / Pr. Santiago d. Estero / 190_ / C. Bruch» print., «Typus» print. on pale green paper, «Microtheca / vitata / Ws.» handwr. by Bruch, red frame,
