Orialella aerizulae Boulard 1986b: 345 View in CoL View Cited Treatment . (Piste de Kaw, km 45, French Guiana)

Orialella boliviana View in CoL (non Distant) Pogue 1996: 314.

REMARKS. Pogue (1996) lists O. boliviana as being found in Peru. However, the locality is similar to those reported here for O. aerizulae . Based on the fact that there are multiple questionable records and records that have been shown to be other species (e.g. Sanborn 2016c; 2017a), the specimens considered to be O. boliviana by Pogue (1996) are considered to be O. aerizulae since I have specimens confirming O. aerizulae from a similar locality. These specimens represent another significant expansion in the range of the species. It was described from French Guiana ( Boulard 1986b) and the range was recently expanded to southern Brazil ( Maccagnan & Sanborn 2015). The species appears to use a variety of environments as the specimens recorded here were collected in a significantly different habitat than the habitats in either French Guiana or Brazil, habitats which also differ significantly from one another ( Maccagnan & Sanborn 2015).

The species can be distinguished by the turquoise blue coloration at the base of the wings, with bright green costal margins, relatively wide head, and the narrowing posterior body. It can be distinguished from O. boliviana ( Distant, 1904b) by the bronzing of the fore wing apical cells, tawny costal margin, and straight subcostal and radius anterior 1 veins along apical cell 1 of O. boliviana . The bronzing is absent, the costal margin is green and the subcostal and radius anterior 1 veins are curved in O. aerizulae .

DISTRIBUTION. The species has been reported previously from Brazil and French Guiana ( Sanborn 2011a; 2013; Maccagnan & Sanborn 2015). Pogue (1996) reported the species (as O. boliviana ) from Pakitza and Tambopata.
