  • Here, A. insignis loquax has its status reevaluated, being considered a junior synonym of A. richardsi, corroborating what was suggested by Garcete-Barrett (2001). This proposition was based on the examination of the holotypes of Alphames richardsi and Alphamenes insignis loquax (examined material below). After the comparison between these specimens, the matching of the following set of features was recognized to justify the synonymy: vertex with strong punctation (Fig. 25); pronotum ferruginous with deep punctures (Figs. 12-13); sulcus between scutellum and metanotum evident (Fig. 15); tegulae (Fig. 15) and T1 strongly punctured (Fig. 18); and S7 without carina.
