Copris (Copris) lugubris Boheman, 1858 View in CoL

Copris lugubris Boheman, 1858: 42 (original description. Type locality: Insulæ Gallapagos [= Galápagos Islands, Ecuador]).

Remarks.

This species was recorded for Ecuador by the following authors: Gillet (1911a: 75) cited for Galapagos-Insel; Blackwelder (1944: 208) cited as Is. Galápagos; Carvajal et al. (2011: 320-321) list of species; Krajcik (2012: 79) cited for Galapagos Islands.

Peck (2005: 81) mentioned this species as an erroneous record for the Galapagos Islands. The reports by Boheman (1858) are probably erroneous with regard to their type localities (see Bousquet 2016, Cupello 2018).
