Comments. Distributed from Guatemala to Colombia ( Rentz 1983, Cadena-Castañeda 2014, Eades et al. 2016). Previously recorded in Colombia from Chocó and Valle del Cauca departments, and is here recorded for the first time for Nariño . Former records of this species in Santander department ( Chamorro-Rengifo et al. 2011) correspond to the recently described species O. andinus Cadena-Castañeda, 2014 .
This species, as in the others belonging to the group tesellatus, presents several chromatic variations occurring in the same geographical area ( Cadena-Castañeda 2014).
