Note 1: Euphoria bivittata was recorded in Argentina by Hayward (1944), which was repeated by Hayward (1960) and cataloged by Di Iorio (2004). This record was based on an error of identification for Euphoria lurida , which is the only species of this genus present in the country.

Note 2: The southern limit of E. lurida in Argentina is located in the province of La Pampa ( Fig. 142 ). Not recorded yet from Formosa and San Juan ( Argentina), probably because of a lack of collecting. The record for Bolivia is a new country record.
