Mycotretus adalioides – Gemminger & Harold 1876: 3691. — Kuhnt 1909: 74; 1911: 47. — Mader 1942: 173; 1951: 214. — Blackwelder 1945: 465. — Alvarenga 1994: 20. — Skelley 1998b: 16. — McHugh & Chaboo 2015: 278. — Pecci-Maddalena et al. 2021b: 3099.

Primary type

Lectotype, here designated ( Fig. 4A View Fig )

PERU • “TYPE [blue label, printed] \ TYPE [printed],adalioides Peru.Jans.[handwritten] \ LECTOTYPE [printed], Mycotretus adalioides Crotch, 1876 [red label, handwritten]”; UMZC.

Distribution

Unknown locality in Peru.

Remarks

Mycotretus adalioides resembles Mycomystes apicalis ( Fig. 26E View Fig ) in body colour and shape ( Pecci-Maddalena et al. 2021b). More material and comparative genitalic studies are needed to verify whether M. adalioides must be transferred to Mycomystes or, on the other hand, considered a Mycotretus representative.
