Description

(Figs. 33, 71, 107)

Feronia olivacea Tschitschérine, 1897: 285

Feronia olivacea Tschitschérine, 1897: Tschitschérine, 1898: 144 Ogmopleura olivacea (Tschitschérine, 1897): Straneo & Vereshagina, 1991: 202 Ogmopleura olivacea (Tschitschérine, 1897): Straneo, 1993: 374 Blennidus olivaceus (Tschitschérine, 1897): Lorenz, 2005a: 263 Blennidus olivaceus (Tschitschérine, 1897): Lorenz, 2005b: 704

Type area. Peru.

Examined material. HT ♂ (CTs at ZIRA).

Note. Species only known from the HT ♂, but easily distinguished by the marked metallic lustre of elytra, the shape of pronotum and the presence of a single pore on the third elytral interval. Owing to these features, B. olivaceus is likely closely related to B. idioderus and B. tenenbaumi (Lutschnik, 1927).
