Remarks. Polyopsia analis was described based on holotype from the United States of America (Pennsylvania). Thomson (1857b) described Agennopsis mutica based on a single specimen from Brazil. Bates (1866) described Agennopsis pygmaea based on syntypes male and female from Brazil (Pará, Rio de Janeiro). Finally, Thomson (1868c) described Agennopsis mexicana based on a single specimen from Mexico. Bates (1872) reported: “ Adetus muticus ( Agennopsis mutica, Thomson …).—Generally distributed throughout Tropical America . I can detect no important difference between specimens from Chontales, the Amazons, and Rio de Janeiro. Adetus analis, Leconte , = Polyopsia analis, Haldem. , which is stated by Leconte to be a South American insect, may possibly be this species. Agennopsis mexicana, Thoms. (Physis II. P. 153) is certainly the same.” “May possibly be” cannot be considered a formal synonymy but just a supposition. However, it is possible to conclude that Bates (1872) synonymized Agennopsis mexicana with Adetus muticus . Bates (1880) considered Agennopsis pygaea and Agennopsis mexicanus [sic] the same as Adetus muticus . Formally, Adetus muticus was never synonymized with A. analis . The former appears in the synonym of the latter from Chemsak et al. (1992), who only listed “ muticus ,” “ pygmaeus [sic],” and “ mexicana ” in the synonym of A. analis . They probably considered that Bates (1872) had made the formal synonymy.

Currently, it is known from the United States of America (the occurrence in this country needs to be confirmed or refuted after examination of the holotype), Mexico, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panama, Colombia, Venezuela, French Guiana, Peru, Bolivia, Brazil (Pará, Maranhão, Bahia, Minas Gerais, Espírito Santo, Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo, Paraná, Santa Catarina, Rio Grande do Sul), Argentina (Santiago del Estero) ( Monné 2024b; Tavakilian & Chevillotte 2023).
