Cephaloleia dimidiaticornis Baly, 1869 (Imatidiini) View in CoL

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

Distribution. Brazil (? Amazonas) and Peru.

Remarks. Cephaloleia dimidiaticornis was described from Peru and afterwards cited only in catalogues. Sඍൺංඇൾඌ +| Gൺඋർටൺ-Rඈൻඅൾൽඈ (2014) published specimens from the Peruvian Amazon and ‘São Paulo’ without any further data. If the locality data and identification are correct, I assume that it must refer to São Paulo de Olivença which was frequently confused with the state of São Paulo by various authors.Alternatively, the specimen was either mislabelled or misidentified but I am quite sure that the species does not occur in the state of São Paulo as it is morphologically similar to some other Amazonian species. Therefore, the record is here tentatively placed as from São Paulo de Olivença in the state of Amazonas and the species is removed from the fauna of São Paulo.
