Eprius obrepta (Kivirikko, 1936), reinstated status

Miltomiges obrepta Kivirikko, 1936 (type locality in Argentina) (Fig. 6 olive) is genetically differentiated from Eprius veleda (Godman, 1901) (type locality in Mexico ( Ver / Tab), Guatemala, Honduras, and Panama) (Fig. 6

green), within which it has been placed as a subspecies. COI barcodes of the two taxa differ by 2.1% (14 bp). Therefore, we reinstate it as a species Eprius obrepta (Kivirikko, 1936), stat. rest., leaving E. veleda monotypic.
