Other material

PERU: 1 ♂, 1 ♀, “Peru Madre de Dios Rio Tambopata Res. 30km (air) sw Pto. Maldonato, 290m, 12°50’ S 069°20’ W ” (USNM).

Remarks

A male and female from Río Madre de Dios in the Tambopata National Reserve (Dept. Tambopata) in the collection of USNM deserve special mention since they represent the first definite record of this highly variable species from elsewhere than the type locality. Both specimens have the armature of all tibiae comparatively more pronounced than any examples of the large type series, which comprises 216 specimens in total. Body lengths of the two specimens in USNM are male 61.0 mm and female 64.5 mm, and hence are in the usual range of L. panguana . The authors have also seen photographs of L. panguana taken at Manú National Park in the Madre de Dios Region, but there are no reference specimens.
