Tympanoterpes elegans Berg, 1882 View in CoL

Tympanoterpes elegans Berg 1882: 40 View in CoL (type material examined).

Type locality. Argentina, Montevideo, Uruguay, and Brazil.

Remarks. The species was reported from Argentina, Brazil, and Uruguay ( Metcalf 1963a). It was reported from the Entre Rios and Santa Fe Provinces ( Berg 1882; Bolcatto et al. 2006; De Santis et al. 2007) in Argentina. The reference to Buenos Aires ( Metcalf 1963a) is actually in reference to the museum housing specimens studied by Berg (1882). We collected specimens in Córdoba, Entre Rios, La Pampa, Rìo Negro, and San Luis Provinces. The species is associated with the Espinal and Pampas floristic provinces ( Sanborn et al. 2011a).
