Naupactus condecoratus Boheman, 1840

Naupactus condecoratus Boheman, 1840: 38–39 . Type material: lectotype female herein designated; Brazil; NHRS, col. Schoenherr. Length: 12 mm ( Fig. 15 ).

Naupactus bosqi Hustache, 1947: 80–81 . Type material: holotype male; Argentina, Corrientes, Santo Tomé, X–1925; NMNH, col. Hustache. Length: 12 mm ( Fig. 16 ). New synonymy.

Geographic distribution: Northeastern Argentina (Misiones and Corrientes) , Brazil (Paraná, Rio de Janeiro, Santa Catarina and São Paulo) and Paraguay (Itapúa) .

Remarks: The morphological differences between N. condecoratus (type female) and N. bosqi (type male) are due to sexual dimorphism and color variation. In the type of N. condecoratus the scaly vestiture is green and in the variety β is purple to copper-colored, same as in the type of N. bosqi . The females from Argentina and Paraguay show a slightly wider pronotum than those from Brazil.
