Weiseispa bimaculata ( Baly, 1858) comb. nov.
Demotispa bimaculata Baly, 1858: 68 View in CoL (type locality: ‘Mexico’; ST! in BMNH!). Demothispa biplagiata Pic, 1923: 8 (type locality: ‘Bogota’; HT! in MNHN!), syn. nov.
Remarks. Most likely, the type locality of D. bimaculata is erroneous, as I have never seen a specimen of Weiseispa collected north of Panama. Moreover, there are no more specimens from Mexico besides the type. I have examined types of both, D. bimaculata and D. biplagiata , and in my opinion both belong to the same species.
Distribution. Colombia: Cundinamarca ( PIC 1923) and? Mexico ( BALY 1858).
