Butocrysa insignis
Description
(Fig. 15)
Material examined: BRAZIL, Espírito Santo (new state record): Linhares, 1 ♂, 09.XI.1990, J.S. Santos col. (RNV).
Butocrysa insignis was described from“Brésil intérieur” [inland Brazil], as Amphionycha insignis. It has been reported that the species was described based on a single specimen (holotype). However, Lucas (1857) indicated: “ AMPHIONYCHA INSIGNIS (2)”; “(2) Dej. Cat. des Coléopt., 3 e edit., p. 379”. Accordingly, the specimens from Pierre François Marie Auguste Dejean (currently in the BMNH) are syntypes. Apparently, Dejean was involved in the identification of the specimens because Lucas himself indicated this (translated): “By doing so, I hope to signal sufficiently the entomological riches gathered by the Scientific Commission of South America, under the skillful direction of M. Le Comte de Castelnau ”. Currently, it is known from Brazil (Minas Gerais, Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo) (Monné, 2020b).
