Odontocroton sanguinolentus ( Bates, 1873) , n. comb.

( Fig. 19 )

Odontocera sanguinolenta Bates 1873: 39 ; Monné 2017: 446 (cat).

Species concept. Based on Bates (1873) original description of a male and female from Brazil (RJ), and a photograph available on Bezark (2017) of a syntype ( Fig. 19 ).

Distribution. Bates’ species is recorded for east central Brazil (BA, MG, ES, RJ, SP) and, probably erroneously so, for Brazil (PR, SC, RS), Argentina (MI, CO, ER) and Uruguay as these records probably refer only to Fisher’s O. sanguinolenta rufifrons .
