Scarabaeus punctatostriatus Solier, 1851

Scarabaeus punctatostriatus Solier 1851: 78 (original combination).

The brief description and simple illustration (plate 16, figure 3) in Solier (1851), as well as placement in the text next to Oryctes View in CoL (= Ligyrus View in CoL ), seems consistent with a Ligyrus View in CoL or Tomarus species except for the longitudinal furrow on the pronotum that extends from the anterior to the posterior margin. There is no Chilean pentodontine with a pronotal furrow of this length. We are unable to place this species.
