Description
Tachygerris opacus (Champion, 1898)
(Figs 60, 62)
New records. PANAMA • 5 macropterous male, 2 macropterous females; Colón, Pipeline Road, Seda River; 9.15329° N, - 79.73663° W; 6 May 2015; A.J.J. Crumière leg.; CEIOC 81260 • 2 macropterous females; Colón, Pipeline Road, Seda River; 9.15329° N, - 79.73663° W; 7 May 2015; A.J.J. Crumière leg.; CEIOC 81261 • 1 macropterous female; Panama, Plantation Road, dry creek, puddle; 9.08556° N, - 79.65841° W; 17 May 2015; A.J.J. Crumière leg.; CEIOC 79956.
Remarks. Tachygerris opacus is found mainly west of the Andes, from Belize to Ecuador (Pacheco-Chaves et al. 2018), with more scarce reports from the Amazon (e.g., Kuitert 1942; Nieser 1970; Morales & Molano 2009). It has been recorded a few times from Panama, including the provinces of Chiriquí (Champion 1898) and Panama (Champion 1898; Torre-Bueno 1926; Kuitert 1942; Calabrese & Tallerico 1987; Damgaard et al. 2014). We report here the occurrence of the species in Colón Province for the first time.
