Cyclosoma (Dolichotoma) germari ( Spaeth, 1913)

Published records. Alto da Serra; Campos da Serra-Rio M’boy Guassú; Interlagos; Jundiaí; Paranapiacaba; Rio da Serra; São Paulo-Ipiranga (Vංൺඇൺ 1964a); Cantrareira (Bඈඋඈඐංൾർ 1996).

Additional records. BRAZIL: Sඞඈ Pൺඎඅඈ: Vale do Rio Prado, xii.1898, 2 spec., E. Gounelle leg. (BMNH).

Distribution. Brazil (Espírito Santo, Minas Gerais, Rio de Janeiro, Santa Catarina, São Paulo) and Uruguay.

Remarks. Vංൺඇൺ (1964a) recorded three specimens from Rio Juruá (which springs from the Ucayalí province in Peru and flows through the states of Acré and Amazonas, where it flows into the Amazon River). Bඈඋඈඐංൾർ (1996) also published one specimen from the Kourou River in French Guiana. I consider these records doubtful, being off the distributional limits of C. germari , and the specimens were probably mislabelled.Accordingly, the species is removed from the fauna of French Guiana and the state of Amazonas.
