Discussion: Formerly included in aperea by Hückinghaus (1961:57); but see Cabrera (1961:579) and Pine et al. (1979:361), who considered tschudii a distinct species. Anderson (1997) recognized nana as a subspecies but Hückinghaus placed in synonymy with sodalis. Includes stolida (Cabrera, 1961:579), but also see Hückinghaus (1961:58), who considered stolida a distinct species.
