Sisyra apicalis Banks, 1908 View in CoL

This species is widespread throughout the Americas ( Parfin and Gurney 1956; Penny 1981, 2002; Bowles 2006; Flint 2006), and it has the greatest latitudinal range among all the sisyrid species in the Western Hemisphere. The occurrence of S. apicalis in Guatemala, Suriname, and Uruguay represents new country records for this species and further expands its known distributional range in the Americas. This species was co-collected in Peru with S. panama Parfin and Gurney.
