Breuning (1971) separated R. apprΟximata from R. peraffinis View in CoL in his key as follows (translated):
“9. The outer apical angle of the elytra sometimes spiny, but not stretched in lobe…10 [conducting to R. peraffinis ] / This angle stretched into a lobe sometimes very small… 14 [conducting to R. apprΟximata].”
Nevertheless, examination of the type series of R. apprΟximata and several specimens belonging to MZSP collection, as well as photograph of the holotype of R. peraffinis , show that the difference pointed out by Breuning (1971) is just specific variation. There are no other differences separating these species. Thus, we synonymize R. peraffinis with R. apprΟximata.
