§ Eurysternus hirtellus Dalman, 1824 View in CoL

Eurysternus hirtellus Dalman 1824: 12 View in CoL ( Brazil - NEOTYPE)

= Eurysternus cirratus Harold 1883: 429 View in CoL ( Brazil - LECTOTYPE)

Distribution. French Guiana: Feer and Pincebourde 2005: 30. Brazil: Harold 1880: 14, 1883: 429 (as E. cirratus ); Gillet 1911b: 25 (as E. cirratus ; as E. hirtellus ); Blackwelder 1944: 197 (as E. cirratus ; as E. hirtellus ); Jessop 1985: 1103 (designation LECTOTYPE Eurysternus cirratus ; designation NEO- TYPE Eurysternus hirtellus ); Vaz-de-Mello 2000: 193 (as E. (Eurysternus) hirtellus ); Génier 2009: 65. Other: Dalman 1824: 12 (none); Harold 1880: 14 (Neu-Granada [= Colombia?]); Medina et al. 2001: 135 ( Colombia).

Note. Based on Génier (2009: 65), who considers Eurysternus hirtellus to be restricted to the Brazilian Atlantic forest and the transition forest to the cerrado, we assume that the records from French Guiana ( Feer and Pincebourde 2005: 30) and Colombia ( Harold 1880: 14; Medina et al. 2001: 135) are based on misidentifications. We regard this species as not occurring in the research area.
