Treatment

Eleusis castanea IRMLER, 2017 View in CoL

Costa Rica: Vara Blanca, 2000 m elevation, male,

15.8.1938, leg. A. Bierig ( FMNH) .

Remarks to distribution: IRMLER (2017) only mentioned the male holotype from Colombia sampled by a Malaise trap. Within the material of FMNH a second male specimen was found from Costa Rica, which shows that the species has a wider distribution at least from Columbia to Costa Rica. Nevertheless, the record of only a single second specimen reveals that the species is extremely rare in the region.
