Zuata ravidella (Lallemand), redefined.

Tomaspis ravidella Lallemand, 1924: 379 (to Zuata: Fennah, 1968) Tomaspisinella callangana Lallemand, 1949: 116, syn.nov.

Tomaspisinella infuscata Lallemand, 1949: 117, syn.nov.

Remarks. Both the types from Bolivia are similarly colored to T. callangana from southern Peru (12o34'S 76o19W, the type-locality also for Z. luteomaculata). The senior name is based on a male slightly larger (8.5.mm) than the two female types (7.5–8 mm). It will take considerably more specimens and/or barcoding to validate additional species where morphological characters are so indefinite.
