Sorocha yungana (Ohaus, 1934)

Pelidnota (Ganonota) yungana Ohaus, 1934a: 11 [original combination].

Pelidnota (Strigidia) yungana Ohaus [new subgeneric combination by Machatschke 1970: 157].

Pelidnota (Odontognathus) yungana Ohaus [new subgeneric combination by Hardy 1975: 4].

Sorocha yungana (Ohaus) [new combination by Soula 2006: 94-95].

Pelidnota (Strigidia) yungana Ohaus [revised combination and revised subgeneric combination by Özdikmen 2009: 145].

Sorocha yungana (Ohaus) [revised combination].

Distribution.

BOLIVIA: La Paz ( Ohaus 1934a, b, Machatschke 1972, Soula 2006, Krajcik 2008).

Types.

Soula (2006) recorded the ♂ holotype of Pelidnota (Ganonota) yungana at ZMHB, so it is possible that Fig. 105 View Figure 105 is the holotype specimen.

Remarks.

While clarifying the subgeneric classification of Pelidnota (due to homonymy of the genus-group name Odontognathus Laporte), Özdikmen (2009) listed Pelidnota yungana within Pelidnota (Strigidia) . We think that Özdikmen (2009) was unaware of Soula’s (2006) erection of the genus Sorocha for some species previously classified in various subgenera of Pelidnota . We classify this species in Sorocha as S. yungana (Ohaus) until the validity of Sorocha is evaluated by phylogenetic analysis.
