Neopentura semifusca Illies 1965

Description

Neopentura semifusca Illies, 1965

Material examined. CHILE, Region X (Los Lagos), PN Puyehue, Rio Chanleufu above Aguas Calientes, sweeping of shore vegetation, forest and roadside (loc. CH30), 480 m, S 40°44.4' W 72°18.0', 7.xii.2013, leg. Fikáček, Kment & Vondráček: 1♂ (NMPC) 1♂ (HNHM).

Remarks. The male of this genus and species was described from Chile recently (Vera 2006b), previously known only from the single female holotype from Argentina (Illies 1965). However, as Vera (2006b) suggested, the Antarctoperlinae (Araucanioperla?) Larventyp A sensu Illies 1963 refers to this species, and it may be more widespread in Chile, and McLellan & Zwick (2007) also reported numerous additional individuals from Argentina.
