Atelodesmis knabi ( Fisher, 1925) View in CoL , comb. nov.

Eupogonius knabi Fisher 1925: 15 View in CoL ; Blackwelder 1946: 600 (checklist); Breuning 1963: 504 (cat.); 1974: 16; Chemsak et al. 1992: 120 (checklist); Monné 1994: 30 (cat.); Monné and Giesbert 1994: 221 (checklist); Noguera and Chemsak 1996: 405 (cat.); Monné 2005: 410 (cat.); Monné and Hovore 2006: 247 (checklist); Lingafelter et al. 2014: 84 (holotype); Monné 2019: 579 (cat.); Bezark 2019b: 285 (checklist).

Examination of photographs of the holotype ( Lingafelter et al. 2019; Bezark 2019a), as well as details in the original description, makes it clear that Eupogonius knabi View in CoL is a species of Atelodesmis Chevrolat, 1841 View in CoL and appears synonymous with Atelodesmis mannerheimii Duponchel and Chevrolat, 1841 View in CoL . However, as A. mannerheimii View in CoL is known only from southern Brazil and E. knabi View in CoL from Mexico it is inappropriate, without personally examining the holotype or specimens from Mexico, to confirm the synonymy.
