Meoneura polita Sabrosky, 1959

Material : ARGENTINA: 1♂, 6.x.1968, Salta, El Carmen, 27 km S Molinos, 1900 m, leg. L. Pena.

The reported specimen keys out to Meoneura polita with the key of Sabrosky (1959) and fits quite well the genital drawing, but the ventral margin of the surstylus is slightly convex and not concave as shown in the drawing of Sabrosky (1959: 21, Fig.3 ). Meoneura polita has not been reported from Argentina before.
