REMARKS: Rondani (1863: 42) described Micropeza formicaria , without specifying either the number or the sex of the specimens and not giving a range of lengths, from material received from R.A. Philippi, to whom he attributed the species name. Costa (1866: 35) listed a single MZUN specimen (as Micropeza formicaria Phil. ) numbered “748”. We found two syntypes in this study.
