Cephaloleia affinis Baly, 1859 (Imatidiini) View in CoL

Published record. São Paulo (Sඍൺංඇൾඌ +| Gൺඋർටൺ-Rඈൻඅൾൽඈ 2014).

Distribution. Bolivia, Brazil (Amazonas, Pará), Colombia, Ecuador, French Guiana, Guyana, Peru, Suriname, and Venezuela.

Remarks. Sඍൺංඇൾඌ +| Gൺඋർටൺ-Rඈൻඅൾൽඈ (2014) published an unknown number of specimens from São Paulo collected duringAugust-September 1879 and deposited in USNM but they did not present any additional data. I assume that this specimen(s) was actually collected in São Paulo de Olivença in the state of Amazonas as I have seen numerous specimens with similar data in the collection of René Oberthür in MNHN. Also, C. affinis is an Amazonian species, thus its occurrence in the state of São Paulo is improbable. Therefore, C. affinis is removed from the fauna of São Paulo.
