Habronyx (Habronyx) punensis Porter 2007

This species was collected near La Paz, Bolivia at more than 3000 m ( Porter 2007); in Peru it was collected in Cusco and Puno departments at a similar elevation. These specimens differ slightly from the type series—deposited at the FSCA—in having the hind trochantelli black and not obscurely stained orange. Also, the Peruvian female has the first metasomal segment dark brown grading apically (about 0.9 of its length) to orange, similar to the male of the Bolivian specimens.

Material studied. ♀, “Cusco Sacsayhuaman 3585m 3.v.77 col. R. Garcia”, and ♂, “Puno Ayaviri 29.iv.74 col: R. Garcia” ( MUSM);? “[Cusco department] Huañacahua 15-3-93 E. Yabar” [specimen without metasoma and antennae] (UNSAAC).
