Figs 10–11

Prionus reticulatus Dalman, 1817: 147 .

Chorenta reticulata Monné, 2006: 34 (cat.; comb. n.).

Chorenta reticulatus Monné & Hovore, 2006: 9 (cat.); Monné & Bezark, 2008: 10.

Also collected with Seticeros tunupai sp. n. were specimens of Chorenta reticulata , which is a new distributional record for Bolivia. This species was known to be distributed in southeastern Brazil (Bahia to Rio Grande do Sul) and Argentina (Misiones) (Monné 2006; Monné & Bezark 2008). Those regions are somewhat distant from La Paz in Bolivia, which suggests that the species may also occur in central Brazil (Mato Grosso and Mato Grosso do Sul). In recent years there has been extensive collecting in the Department of Santa Cruz in Bolivia, but no specimen of that species has been found.

Figures 6–Ι3. Head, ventral view: 6 Seticeros tunupai sp. n., holotype male 7 idem, paratype female 8 S. aquilus , male 9 idem, female Ι0 Chorenta reticulata , male ΙΙ idem, female Ι2 C. biramiguelus (Santos-Silva, 2004) , male Ι3 idem, female.

Despite the absence of specimens in southeastern Brazil and middle-eastern Argentina, the specimens collected in Bolivia are consistent with the specimens examined by us (more than 100 specimens from Brazil).

Material examined. BOLIVIA: 1 ♁, Department of La Paz, Nor Yungas, street from Caranavi to Coroico , 1600–1800 m, XI.2009 ( NDC) ; 1 ♁, 1 ♀, same data ( RPC) .
