Materail studied here. Few females from localities 2 and 4.

Diagnosis, description. See Kotov et al., (2003), Kotov (2009b).

Comments. Type locality is "River Makalia, Elmenteita district" ( Jenkin 1934), Rift Valley Province , central Kenya, Africa. Lectotype : female, NHM 2002.701 . Paralectotype : female, NHM 2002.702 ., on same slide as lectotype .

Distribution. Afrotropical zone: from Kenya ( Jenkin 1934) to the southernmost corner of the continent (Kotov 2003), and Neotropical zone: from South Mexico to Argentina, including Patagonia ( Kotov et al. 2003; Elías-Gutiérrez et al. 2006). Now we can add North Chilean high mountain localities to this range. In South America, the taxon is present in temperate lowlands of the southernmost portion of the continent, also in high mountains in tropical latitudes. In tropical lowlands it is absent.
