Leptopeltus Bernhauer 1906 View in CoL
Leptopeltus Bernhauer 1906: 337 View in CoL . Type species: Philonthus flavipennis Erichson, 1840 View in CoL , designated by Lucas (1920: 371).
Note: Leptopeltus View in CoL is a Neotropical Andean genus with five species currently known ( Chani-Posse & Asenjo 2013).
Leptopeltus divisus ( Sharp 1891) View in CoL , comb. nov. ( Figs. 43–44 View FIGURES 37–44 )
Philonthus divisus Sharp 1891: 41 View in CoL . Type locality: Machachi (9–10000 ft). Type depository: BMNH HT ♀. Distribution : Ecuador .
Remarks. The “unique” specimen in BMNH is confirmed as the holotype.
Type material examined. Holotype ♀ ( BMNH, Figs. 43–44 View FIGURES 37–44 ): card-mounted, “ ♂ (in ink) Philonthus divisus Type D.S. Ecuador 9–10000 ft. Whymper” [in Sharp’s hand] // Type (round white label with red margin) // Ecuador (white label) // B. C. A. Col. I. 2. Philonthus divisus, Sharp. (white label) // Sharp Coll. 1905.-313. (white label)”.
Comments. The holotype we examined agrees in every respect with Leptopeltus carchiensis Chani-Posse & Asenjo 2013 and therefore we propose this name as a new junior synonym (new synonymy) of Philonthus divisus Sharp 1891 . We also transfer P. divisus to the genus Leptopeltus Bernhauer , as Leptopeltus divisus (Sharp) , new combination.
