Proarna guttulosa (Walker, 1858)

Cicada guttulosa Walker 1858b: 20 . (unknown locality)

REMARKS. This is the largest of the Peruvian Proarna species with some females reaching body lengths of 31 mm or more. The costal margin is unique for the Peruvian species of Proarna in that it is curved from the base rather than being straight. The size combined with the curved costal margin makes the species fairly easy to distinguish but the lack of infuscation on the nodal line of the fore wing, the more elongate body, and the narrower pronotum are also useful in distinguishing it from P. grisea .

DISTRIBUTION. The species has been reported from Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, and South America (Metcalf 1963a; Sanborn 2013) with recent records expanding the distribution to include Bolivia (Sanborn 2019b). The species has been reported from Pachitea, Peru (Jacobi 1907; 1951). Pogue (1996) reported the species from Pakitza and Tambopata.
