§ Athyreus biarmatus Howden and Martínez, 1978

Athyreus biarmatus Howden and Martínez 1978: 35 (Trinidad and Tobago)

Distribution. Venezuela (EO): Howden 1999: 345 (EO). Other: Howden and Martínez 1978: 35 (Trinidad and Tobago); Howden 1999: 345 (Trinidad and Tobago).

Note. Howden (1999: 345) suspects Athyreus biarmatus to be dimorphic in males, with the other form being A. armatus Westwood, 1848 (p. 386). In case they belong to the same species, the name A. armatus has priority.
