(to Adelopsis, not stated as taxonomic change — see Note under genus Adelopsis, above); Gnaspini, 1996: 539 (types seen); Gnaspini & Peck, 2001: 429 (assignment to group ascutellaris); Salgado, 2010c: 215 (assignment to group elephas); Gnaspini & Peck, 2019: 23 (types seen; lectotype designation; assignment back to group; and to subgroup).
Lectotype male in MNHN [Syntypes (several specimens, sex not given, [probably] in Grouvelle collection, in original description; 2 males examined in Gnaspini, 1996: 541); as ‘MHNH’ [sic] when referring to the paralectotype in captions of figs. 89-98 in Gnaspini & Peck, 2019].
Type locality: Cochabamba, [2500 m, in the Andes, in Jeannel, 1936; but not in type label (Gnaspini & Peck, 2019)], [Cochabamba Department], Bolivia.
Distribution: Bolivia: Cochabamba Department: known only from type locality.
= A. heterocera Portevin, 1907: 72; Jeannel, 1922: 42 (and footnote 2) comb. (to Ptomaphagus —see Note under genus Adelopsis, above), 1936: 67 (as heterocerus, back to Adelopsis, not stated as taxonomic change — see Note under genus Adelopsis, above); Gnaspini, 1996: 539 (types seen); Salgado, 2010c: 213 (assignment to group); Gnaspini & Peck, 2019: 23 syn. (types seen [Note: Aedeagus missing—we recently learned that there is a glass slide with the male genitalia of this type specimen studied by R. Jeannel and kept separate at the MNHN collection (Michel Perreau, 2019, personal comm.); see Note under MNHN, in ‘Construction and Organization of the Catalog’ and also in Gnaspini & Peck, 2019]). Syntypes (3 males) in MNHN (depository not given in original description; Jeannel, 1936 refers to several specimens in Pic collection; Gnaspini, 1996: 541 examined 2 male types).
