Zammara brevis (Distant, 1905b)

Orellana brevis Distant 1905b: 382 . (Pacho, Cundinamarca Province, New Granada, Colombia)

REMARKS.— Goemans (2016) determined the type locality based on the 1873 purchase by the Natural History Museum, London. The species can be distinguished by the extended black spot on the prothorax and mesothorax and the sac-like timbal covers that extend laterally much wider than the lateral abdomen (Goemans 2016).

DISTRIBUTION.—The species has been reported from Colombia and Ecuador (Metcalf 1963a; Sanborn 2013; Goemans 2016). Goding (1925) reported the species from Guayaquil, Guayas province but Goemans (2016) found a restricted distribution in central Colombia bringing the Ecuadorian record into question.
