52. Cylindera (Plectographa) stamatovi ( Sumlin, 1979) , new combination ( Fig. 72, 73 , 90-94 )

Cicindela (Brasiella) stamatovi: Sumlin 1979: 104 , 105.

Brasiella (Brasiella) stamatovi: Wiesner 1992: 205 ; Cassola and Pearson 2001: 18; Erwin and Pearson 2008: 116.

Distribution ( Fig. 160 ). Argentina (Tucumán).

Localities. Tucumán: Tucuman, ii.1950 ( Sumlin 1979: 104).

Remarks. Due to the kindness of Lee H. Herman (AMNH) it was possible to study Sumlin’s type material. Its aedeagus ( Fig. 92 ) lacks an apical hook, the internal sac has a flagellum and dorsal spatulate sclerites. Aedeagi of the Brasiella have an apical hook and/or are lacking a flagellum. Aedeagi of Cylindera (Cylindera) have no dorsal spatulate sclerites. As the aedeagus of C. stamatovi lacks an apical hook and bears dorsal spatulate sclerites, it is transferred from Brasiella , where it was tentatively placed by Sumlin, to Cylindera (Plectographa) near C. eugeni (Laporte de Castelnau, 1834) .
