Hemisia garleppi Schrottky, 1913: 708 View in CoL .

Type data: This species was described based on a single female collected by Otto Garlepp in Apurímac, southern Peru. Garlepp (1864‑1959) was a German naturalist and, as well as his brother Gustav (1862‑1907), a professional collector that worked actively in South America. The holotype is currently housed at DZUP but according to Moure (1999) it belongs to the MZSP. The specimen has the following data label: Apurimac Peru [handwritten]\ [black‑rimmed] Hemisia garleppi Schrottky ♀ [handwritten] C.S. Schrottky det. 19 [printed] 12 [handwritten]\ recebido de J.F. Zikán Pe Moure 1942 [handwritten].

Comments: This is a poorly known species recorded only in Peru. Considering the dark metasoma with terga 4 to 6 reddish brown, this species is probably related to C. caelebs Friese, 1899 which also has the same pattern of coloration.
