Ariasa colombiae (Distant, 1892)

Tympanoterpes colombiae Distant 1892: 60 (type material in BMNH).

Ariasa colombiae Distant 1905: 314 .

Type locality. Manaure and Bogota, Colombia and Venezuela.

Remarks. The species is most similar morphologically to A. albimaculosa n. sp. The species has been associated with the Chaco floristic province in Argentina (Sanborn, et al. 2011a; Sanborn & Heath 2014) but is associated with other plant communities across the range of the species as the Chaco does not extend to the type locality.

Distribution. Specimens have been reported previously from Colombia, Venezuela (Metcalf 1963; Sanborn 2013), and Argentina (Sanborn & Heath 2014).
