Eryphus picticollis (Gounelle, 1911) View in CoL
Dept. Santa Cruz. 18°08′S / 63°45′W, 1880 m, Provincia Florida, Floripondio (west): on/flying to flowers of “Sagüintillo”, female, 1.XI.2009 (RCSZ).
Remarks. Napp and Martins (2002b) recognise two morphs from the same area of Brazil-Argentina ( E. picticollis m. quadripunctatus Fuchs, 1961 and E. picticollis m. reductus Fuchs, 1961); and from the same area refer to another morph (without name). According to Clarke (2013) the area of Bicoquin-Floripondio is rich in endemic Rhinotragini , and Napp and Martins (2006a, 2006b) and Wappes and Lingafelter (2011) have described genera of singular-looking species from this area, and other new genera and species have been described by Galileo and Martins (2007, 2008), Martins and Galileo (2006), Martins and Napp (2007), and Clarke (2015). The inference being, that the Bolivian specimen of Eryphus may represent a new species; but confirming this would require revision of the status of the morphs referred to by Napp and Martins (sic), thereby complicating a taxonomic conundrum that appears to need further research.
