= Punargentus penai Hayward, 1967 View in CoL

Holotype: (male) 11 Dec. 1965, leg. Luis E. Peña (Peña collection) (not examined)

Type location: Alto Pajonales, Antofagasta Province, Chile, 4700 m. Other combinations:

Argyrophorus monticolens gustavi — Heimlich (1972)

Argyrophorus penai —Peña & Ugarte (1997, p. 275)

Distribution. Occurs in the high paramo (> 4000m.) of southern Peru, Bolivia, northern Chile and Argentina ( Fig. 29).

Remarks. Material was unavailable for detailed study, but the species’ morphology and distribution and has lately been reviewed by Cerdeña et al. (2014). The forewings appear to be more pointed than other species of Punargentus , with the outer margin evenly curved so that there is hardly an “angle” at the anal angle ( Fig. 11 View FIGURE 11 E, F). The dorsal surface of both wings may exhibit silver scales or be predominantly brown. The unpupillated ocellus between forewing M1-M2 typical of the genus is present, as are the lentuicular submarginal yellow streaks on the ventral surfaces of both wings.

Etymology. Named for its collector, Gustav Garlepp (Peña & Ugarte, 1997).
