Material examined. 49♂, 23♀.
Remarks. Based on the number of specimens recently collected of C. chalybescens, it seems likely that the records in Kirby (1890) and Alvarenga (1962) as Temnocera vesiculosa (presently a synonym of Copestylum neotropicum) have been based on a misidentification. On this species, Kirby (1890) remarks “Flying over herbage in the sun, and also taken on the flowers of the cabbage in the garden”.
Dioprosopa clavata (Fabricius, 1794), new record Material examined. 9♂, 9♀.
