Cyclocephala fuliginea Burmeister 1847: 42 (Brazil - LECTOTYPE)

Distribution. French Guiana: Duranton 2011: 17 (?). Brazil: Burmeister 1847: 42 (as Cyclocephala fuliginea); Blackwelder 1944: 250 (as Paraspidolea fuliginea); Endrödi 1966a: 348 (designation LECTO- TYPE Cyclocephala fuliginea); Ratcliffe 2003: 49 (?); Moore et al. 2018b: 123. Venezuela: Blackwelder 1944: 250 (as Paraspidolea fuliginea); Endrödi 1966a: 348; Moore et al. 2018b: 123. Other: Arrow 1937b: 7 (Central America, South America - as Paraspidolea fuliginea); Blackwelder 1944: 250 (Guatemala, Mexico - as Paraspidolea fuliginea); Endrödi 1966a: 348 (Argentina, Colombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Guatemala, Mexico, Peru, Trinidad and Tobago), 1985a: 149 (Argentina–Mexico); Lachaume 1992: 17 (Argentina–Mexico); Ratcliffe 2003: 49 (Argentina (?), Ecuador, Mexico, Peru, Central America, northern South America); Ponchel 2011 (not mentioned); Dupuis 2016b (not mentioned); Moore et al. 2018b: 123 (Argentina, Belize, Colombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, Nicaragua, Panama, Peru, Trinidad and Tobago).

Note. Duranton (2011: 17) notes he saw no definite specimens of Aspidolea fuliginea from French Guiana, and the species is not mentioned in the checklists for French Guiana by Ponchel (2011) and Dupuis (2016b). There are no definite records of this species from the research area, but it is otherwise rather widespread in Central America and northwestern South America. Based on its known distribution, we regard this species as not occurring in the Guianas.
