Parochlus kiefferi (Garrett, 1925) *
Garrett, 1925: 8 ( Paratanypus) [Canada].
Material examined. Panama, Chiriqui Province, Cuenca 102, Tierras Altas District, Mount Totumas Cloud Forest and Biological Reserve, Quebrada Norte, 1 male, 26–28 December 2017, Malaise trap, leg B. Armitage & J. Dietrich .
Distribution in Neotropics. Costa Rica, Mexico, Panama.
Note. The species belongs to the Parochlus araucanus group, a group of species that cannot be identified with certainty based on male adults alone. The group is distributed in continental South America and apparently only Parochlus kiefferi has spread to the Holarctic region through the mountains in Central America (see Bello-González et al. 2024b). Awaiting more material from Panama, including immatures, we list the species as P. kiefferi (Garret) .
