Comments. Baccha pulla Sack was described from a male and two females from two different localities in Paraguay, Aregua (male and female) and Trinidad (female). A female deposited in the SMF and labeled “ Paraguay // Sa. Trinidad // 19.VII. 19 15 ” “189” [red ink] “ Baccha // pulla Sack. ” [in Sack's hand] “Collection // Prof. Dr. P. Sack” “ LECTOTYPE // Baccha // pulla Sack ” de s. X. Mengual 20 17 ” [red] is here designated lectotype and has been so labeled. This lectotype designation is made in order to fix the concept of pulla and to ensure universal and consistent interpretation of the same.
