Eriopis sp. (Brèthes, 1925) (Fig 3m).

Examined material: 1 ex. (female) “ Chile, Isla de San Ambrosio, 31-08-2018, leg. María José Vilches ” “SANAM-F29-N2” (CPDC); 1 ex. (female), same collection information, except by “ 10-9-2018 ” “MANTA S-4” (CPDC) .

Original reference: First record of a species of Coccinellidae for Islas Desventuradas.

Comments: The collection of only females does not allow to differentiate between three species of similar habitus present on the mainland: E. chilensis Hofmann, E. loaensis González and E. concordia González. It is possible that the specimens were introduced from the continent or the Juan Fernández archipelago.

Summary: Given the high endemism levels on the vegetation of the island, it is expected that something similar would occur with the Coccinellidae . However, the islands have been poorly entomologically prospected (Kuschel 1963). Further collecting of males would be needed to recognize the only species known from the island.
