The following specimens are deposited at CCECL. 1 ♂ holotype, 1 probable ♂ paratype: "Manzillo Mexique XII 86 Dr F. GARNIER//Holotype 2008 Pelidnota abracadabra S. Soula det."

Remarks.

In his description, Soula (2009: 63) mentioned an additional male specimen from Jalisco, Mexico, and he illustrated the protarsal claw of this specimen ( Soula 2009: 63). In the CCECL collection, one male specimen possesses a blank, red label, and we consider this specimen a probable paratype of P. abracadabra Soula.
