Erroneous literature records for Venezuela
Blackwelder 1944: 211 (cited as Eurypodea convexus ). — Vulcano & Pereira 1967: 566 (cited as Tetramereia convexa ). — Arnaud 2002b: 16 (cited as Tetramereia convexa , Venezuela: Suapure). — Noriega et al. 2008: 132 (cited as Tetramereia convexa , Venezuela: Bolívar: Suapure).
Actual distribution
Brazil and Bolivia ( Génier & Arnaud 2016).
Remarks
For more than a century, specimens from many parts of South America were identified both in collections and in the literature as Tetramereia convexa (see compilation in Ampudia Gatty et al. 2012). Génier & Arnaud (2016), however, argued that they actually refer to at least two different species, both belonging to Dendropaemon , D. convexus , from central Brazil and Bolivia, and D. fredericki ( Klages, 1906) , from the Amazon. Only the latter is present in Venezuela; the references reporting Tetramereia convexa (and other combinations) for the country all refer to it.
