Zammara tympanum (Fabricius, 1803)

[ Tettigonia] tympanum Fabricius 1803b: 40 .

Type locality. Brazil.

Remarks. As stated in the analysis of Z. strepens, the references to Z. tympanum probably relate to Z. tympanum (Palisot de Beauvois, 1813) which is a junior synonym of Z. strepens . The references to locations for the species are only “ Argentina ” (Metcalf 1963a). Zammara tympanum has been recorded from Belize, Honduras, Guatemala, Costa Rica, Colombia, Brazil, Peru and Paraguay (Metcalf 1963a; Duffels & van der Laan 1985; Sanborn 2010; 2011a). The records from Paraguay also appear to be Z. strepens (Sanborn 2011a) . We remove the species until specimens of the true Z. tympanum can be verified from Argentina.
