Oreodera sororcula Martins and Monne 1993

Description

Oreodera sororcula Martins and Monné, 1993

(Fig. 10–17)

Oreodera sororcula Martins and Monné 1993: 135; Monné 1994: 32 (cat.); Monné and Giesbert 1994: 236 (checklist); Monné 2005: 195 (cat.); Morvan and Morati 2006: 37 (distr.); Monné and Hovore 2006: 208 (checklist); Touroult et al. 2010: 31; Tavakilian and Néouze 2011: 83 (hosts); Machado et al. 2012: 192 (hosts); Giuglaris 2012: 63 (distr.); Morvan and Roguet 2013: 16 (distr.); Santos-Silva and Botero 2016: 427 (distr.); Monné 2018: 271 (cat.).

This species was originally described based on 2 males (holotype from Venezuela, AMNH; paratype from Guyana, MZSP) and 1 female (from Guyana, AMNH). The paratype belonging to the MZSP collection was reported as being a female but is a male. However, when describing the dimensions of the specimens, Martins and Monné (1993) correctly provided the measurements of two males and one female.

Morvan and Morati (2006) were the first to report this species in French Guiana. Although the paratype female from Guyana was not examined, the holotype and paratype (Fig. 10-13) males are distinctly lighter than specimens from French Guiana (specimens also examined through photographs, Fig. 14–17). In addition to the difference in color, the anterolateral pronotal tubercles are somewhat smaller and more distinctly conical in the holotype and paratype male than in the specimens from French Guiana. However, as no other morphological features were found, it is probable that the differences in the French Guiana specimens are simply local variants.

Material examined. GUYANE: upper Mazaruni River, paratype male, IX–X.1938, A. S. Pinkus col. (MZSP). FRENCH GUIANA: Kaw road (D-6), PK 38 (Amazone Nat. Lodge; Montagne de Kaw; 4°33 N / 52°11 W; 970 ft; MV/light), 1 female, 11–23.VIII.2017, J. Wappes and R. Morris col. (ACMT).
