Hylobothynus pontis Ratcliffe, 1981

Hylobothynus pontis Ratcliffe 1981b: 303 ( Brazil (NA))

Distribution. Guyana: López-García et al. 2016: 498. French Guiana: Brûlé et al. 2011b: 120; Duran- ton 2011: 21; Ponchel 2011: 61; Dupuis 2016b: 110. Brazil (NA): Ratcliffe 1981b: 303 (NA); Lachaume 1992: 34; López-García et al. 2016: 498. Other: Endrödi 1985a (not mentioned).

Note. The record of Hylobothynus pontis from Guyana in López-García et al. (2016: 498) appears to be erroneous. Based on the literature they cite, this should be French Guiana. Although this species might be present in Guyana, it has not yet been recorded from there. As yet, the species is only known from French Guiana and Brazil.
