3.1.13. Ochlerus tenuicornis BREDDIN, 1910 (pp. 626–627)

(figs 14, 29)

Type material (examined): Female holotype, deposited at the SDEI; ‘ Venezuela | coll. Breddin | Barber revid. 1933 | Holotypus | DEI Müncheberg HEMI-00035’ .

Type locality: Venezuela.

Comments: Although one male syntype should have been deposited at the Hamburg Museum ( BREDDIN, 1910: 627), the two syntypes (one male and one female) are housed at the SDEI. These specimens happen to be not conspecific.

Breddin himself doubted the identification of the associated male, since the females and the male are from distant localities and bear only general similarities, such as the shape of the pronotum. Thus, the male paralectotype (figs 15, 30) is transferred to Ochlerus breddini spec. nov. described below.
