Rhinotora peruana Kertesz
Description
Rhinotora peruana Kertész
(Fig. 10)
Rhinotora peruana Kertész, 1901: 415, pl. 20, figs 8–9 (scutellum, wing). Holotype ♀, HNHM. Type-locality: Peru, Callanga. Distr.— Peru (Callanga). Ref. — Papavero, 1967: 2 (catalogue).
Remarks. This is the only known Rhinotora species not recorded from Brazil, and it was not studied. According to the illustrations of Kertész (1901), this species possess quite long spiniform lateral protuberances (distinctly longer than the apical one), along with a well-developed protuberance at base of apical seta, as also observed by Lopes (1935). The wing spot pattern of this species seems to approximate it to R. pluricellata.
