Description

FIG. 5. — Brazil, showing distribution of Discocyrtus cerayanus (Roewer, 1929) n. comb. and Paradiscocyrtus neglectus Mello-Leitão, 1927. In the main map: 1) shaded areas in the background represent the regionalization ("Provinces") of the Neotropics (Morrone 2014); 2) the red-checkered area shows the Brazilian state of Ceará, misinterpreted by Mello-Leitão (in Roewer 1931) as the real meaning of "Ceraya" (type locality of D. cerayanus n. comb.) recorded by Roewer (1929). Here, "Ceraya" is interpreted as "Serra do Caraça", a mountain range from the Minas Gerais state. The inset shows the areas of endemism of the Brazilian Atlantic Rain Forest used here follow the concept exposed by DaSilva et al. (2017).
