Plagiometriona bremei ( Boheman, 1855) stat. restit.
Coptocycla Brèmei Boheman, 1855: 243 (original description).
Type locality. ‘Columbia; Bogota’.
Type material examined. SYNTYPE:?♀, pinned, ‘ Colum- | bia [w, p, cb] || M. Wien [w, hw, s] || Type. [w, p, s] || NHRS-JLKB | 000022546 [w, p, cb] ’ ( NHRS).
Remarks. BOHEMAN (1855) described this taxon from at least two specimens as he mentioned two depositories (NHRS and collection of Brême). SPAETH (1912) transferred it to Plagiometriona and later, reduced its status to aberration of P. buqueti ( Boheman, 1855) without any comments ( SPAETH 1937). Since then, P. bremei was considered its junior subjective synonym (see BOROWIEC 1999a).
I have examined types of both taxa and in my opinion they represent two distinct species and I therefore remove P. bremei from synonymy of P. buqueti and restore its species status. See Table 1 View Table 1 for distinguishing characters between the two species.
Distribution. Colombia ( BOHEMAN 1855).
