03A387CCDB11271EFE8BAC04B4B4E05E.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis This species is similar in its generally dark metallic violet­blue body colour to most species of Brachygasterina but can be distinguished by the narrow parafacial, in lateral view at narrowest point 0.2 of the width of first flagellomere (male not known) (Fig. 6); from B. violaceiventris and B. valdiviensis, which also have a narrow parafacial, it differs by the absence of setulae on the facial ridge.	en	De Carvalho, C.

03A387CCDB1F2714FE8BA994B4B4E52E.taxon	discussion	Remarks The body of the lectotype is rather dirty and right fore leg is missing, otherwise it is well preserved. According to the labels, the other specimens were collected in carrion traps and on bamboo shrubs between 1100 and 3600 metres, the latter on páramo. Notes on the type­locality: The Diptera collected by Alphons Stübel, one of greatest of the early collectors in South America, were identified and published by Röder (1886). Stübel spent nine years in this region after arriving in Santa Marta, Colombia, in 1868. He subsequently visited several other countries, mainly studying geology and especially vulcanology but also collecting flies (see Papavero 1973). Compared with the present time, Colombia was a very different country when Stübel collected the female of B. stuebeli at an altitude of 3600 metres, embracing the whole north­west part of the South American continent. The lectotype label mentions Páramo in Colombia as the typelocality. However, “ Páramo ” is a type of vegetation, subdivided into subpáramo, páramo and super páramo (Hammer 1974), and is characteristic of the South American tropical highlands, being found above 3000 metres in northern Peru, Ecuador, Colombia and Venezuela. It seems probable that the “ Páramo ” of the lectotype label refers to the vegetation type and is not the name of town or city in Colombia. According to Papavero (1973: 310), Stübel made an excursion to Quito (Ecuador) and its neighbourhood from April to June 1871, and in May, June, October to December 1873 to several localities in Ecuador, including Páramo de Calacali at 3600 metres. This is the only locality where “ Páramo at 3600 metres ” is clearly stated (see Papavero 1973), although there were other localities at or above 3600 metres during this entire journey. It is difficult, if not impossible, to establish the type­locality of B. stuebeli with certainty, but on the basis of Stübel’s 1873 itinerary we propose to fix Páramo de Calacali in Ecuador as the type­locality of B. stuebeli (map, Fig. 19). Other localities in Ecuador for B. stuebeli are known to us (see the material listed above). Geographic distribution Ecuador.	en	De Carvalho, C. J. B., Pont, A. C.

It is closely related to B. violaceiventris but can be distinguished by the presence of a dorsal preapical seta on fore tibia and by the number of spermathecae: two in B. valdiviensis and three in B. violaceiventris (Soares & Carvalho 2004).
