Note. Reexamination of the specimens of Deltochilum pseudoicarus mentioned in Ratcliffe (2013b: 493), with the aid of the key provided in González-Alvarado and Vaz-de-Mello (2014: 467), has revealed they are, in fact, D. icarus (B. Ratcliffe, pers. comm.). The distribution of D. icarus appears to be limited to the research area, while D. pseudoicarus is a species restricted to southern and eastern Brazil, northern Argentina, Bolivia and Paraguay. The records of D. icarus in Paulian (1938: 265) from Brazil (Minas Gerais), Bolivia and Paraguay may well belong to D. pseudoicarus .
