Remarks.

Atopsyche lobosa was originally described from Bolivia, and subsequently also found in Peru (Cuzco Department). Later, Ríos-Touma et al. (2017) recorded it from Ecuador for the first time. Mey and Ospina-Torres (2018) have also recorded it from Colombia. Rázuri-Gonzales et al. (2025) recorded it from the Zamora Chinchipe Province (Ecuador). Here we also record it from the Pasco Department.
