Pelidnota (Odontognathus) nadiae Martínez, 1978: 125-129 [original combination].

Sorocha nadiae ( Martínez) [new combination by Soula 2006: 96].

Pelidnota (Strigidia) nadiae Martínez [revised combination and new subgeneric combination by Özdikmen 2009: 145].

Sorocha nadiae ( Martínez) [revised combination].

Distribution.

ECUADOR: Pichincha ( Martínez 1978, Paucar-Cabrera 2005, Soula 2006, Krajcik 2008).

Types.

Holotype specimen of Pelidnota (Odontognathus) nadiae at MACN; 1 ♂ paratype at CMNC.

Remarks.

CCECL contains a S. nadiae specimen labeled as a female alloréférent with the following data: 1 ♀ alloréférent: "Pacto Pichincha Equa. M. SOULA det 19/ Sorocha nadiae (Mar.) M. SOULA det [19 crossed out] 2006//Alloreferent ♀ Sorocha nadiae det. M. R. Moore 2014 (M)" (47030992). Box 4618688 SOULA. While clarifying the subgeneric classification of Pelidnota (due to homonymy of the genus-group name Odontognathus Laporte), Özdikmen (2009) listed Pelidnota nadiae within Pelidnota (Strigidia) . We think that Özdikmen (2009) was unaware of Soula’s (2006) erection of the genus Sorocha for some species previously classified in various subgenera of Pelidnota . We classify this species in Sorocha as S. nadiae ( Martínez) until the validity of Sorocha is evaluated by phylogenetic analysis.
