Gnomidolon pulchrum Martins, 1960 View in CoL

( Fig. 2 View FIGURES 1 – 6. 1 )

Gnomidolon pulchrum Martins, 1960: 7 View in CoL ; Monné, 2005: 313 (cat.).

Martins (2006) called attention to the variation in color of G. pulchrum View in CoL . The typical form, with the apical half of the elytra reddish, occurs in the south-central part of Paraguay ( San Pedro, Cordillera) and in northern Argentina. The form with the apical half of the elytra black is recorded for Brazil (Mato Grosso), but also occurs in northern Paraguay (Concepción). The typical form has been illustrated in color by Martins (1967: 210, est. 7, fig. 2; 2006: 169, fig. 183).

A female from Bolivia before us agrees with the form that shows the apical half of the elytra black, but the extremities of the elytra have a narrow transverse white stripe ( Fig. 2 View FIGURES 1 – 6. 1 ). Structurally, the specimen agrees morphologically with the other forms cited.
