Acanthoscelides reductelineatus (Pic, 1939) Combination confirmed.

Bruchus reductelineatus Pic, 1939: p. 251 . From labels of type series: “ Buenos Aires Argentina / Isla Martin Garcia / 6-1936 / M.J. Viana ” [Argentina]; “ Buenos Aires Argentina / Tigre / 1938 M.J. Viana ” [Argentina]. Syntype male deposited in the MNHN; syntype male and female deposited in the MLPA. There is a “ Lectotype ” label affixed to the specimen in the MNHN by J.M. Kingsolver. However, the original publication does not designate a holotype nor does it indicate the number of specimens examined. Because this lectotype has not been published, this must be considered a syntype.
