Remarks.

Ancognatha quadripunctata has been reported from Ecuador ( Endrődi 1966, 1985a) and Guatemala ( Blackwelder 1944, Deloya et al. 2016). Major faunistic studies did not record additional specimens from Guatemala ( Ratcliffe et al. 2013). No new data from Ecuador has been reported since Endrődi (1966).
