Hystricia palpina Rondani, 1851 View in CoL

ORIGINAL DESCRIPTION: 1851: 362.

TYPE LOCALITY: “ regioni equatoriali dell’America, principalmente nelle vicinanze del Rio Napo [ Equatorial regions of ( South ) America, mainly in the vicinity of Napo River]” ( Rondani 1851: 357) .

TYPE MATERIAL: not found in this study.

CURRENT STATUS: valid species ( Guimarães 1971: 41, O’Hara et al. 2020: 765).

REMARKS: Rondani (1851: 362) described Hystricia palpina from just the male sex, without specifying the number of specimens and not giving a range of lengths, from material collected by Osculati (1850) during his journey through equatorial South America. Osculati (1850: 240) named but did not describe the species. Leonardi et al. (1995: 148) and Mazzotti (2011: 166) reported the Osculati collection in Milan as destroyed. We also did not find any material during this study.
