Comment.

Bolitogyrus viridescens was previously known only from a single imprecise locality: ~9 km E Teziutlán. Although this locality was listed as from Puebla state on the labels of the type series ( Brunke and Solodovnikov 2014), 9 km E of Teziutlán must be just over the border in neighboring Veracruz state. Based on the detailed record from Aguita Fria, B. viridescens is probably sympatric with B. strigifrons , and both are recorded from the general area around the city of Xalapa.
