Scolytodes boliviensis ( Eggers, 1928: 88) View in CoL , synonymy of S. similis View in CoL (see Bright 2014). Types of the four species in USNM (photo: http://www.barkbeetles.info) were compared to paratypes at NHMW and have only slight variation in size, ranging from 2.5 mm ( similis View in CoL ) to 3.9 mm ( major View in CoL ). The shape and placement of setae and punctures are identical and the minor variation observed in the frons and pronotum are typical sexual dimorphism. Type localities in the four species are closely situated locations in Bolivia and Argentina, but the full range of this species is much larger with several new country records reported here (see below). Everything else being equal, the name S. major ( Eggers, 1928) View in CoL is given priority as the first mentioned name of the four taxa (page priority).
