Tettigades compacta Walker, 1850

Tettigades compacta Walker 1850: 256 .

Type locality. West Coast of America.

Remarks. The species has been recorded from Argentina and Chile (Metcalf 1963c). However, the reference to Argentina in Metcalf (1963c) is a misinterpretation of Delétang (1923) who was not claiming that the species was found in Argentina but was making a comparison to Argentine species. Torres (1958a) had the species restricted to Chile as well.
