Scaralis (Alphinoides) spectabilis (Walker, 1858), stat. nov.

Type material. Holotype, female (BMNH): BRAZIL: Pará; figured by Porion (1994), Plate 4, Fig. 60.

Notes. While this was the only Alphinoides species previously reported to occur in Mesoamerica (Panama; Distant, 1887), it seems certain that this record refers instead to Scaralis (A.) inbio, as the type locality of spectabilis is Pará, Brazil. The markings on the thorax of fluvialis, spectabilis, and inbio are very similar, though some features of the wings and abdomens are quite different. Metcalf (1938) placed spectabilis into Poblicia, not having examined the type, and not realizing it was a “calyptoproctine”.
