( Figs. 43 , 81 , 117 )

Blennidus straneoi Allegro & Giachino, 2011a: 303

Type locality. Peru, Callanga.

Examined material. HT ♂ (CSt at MSNM); 1 PT ♀ (CAl) (complete TS).

Note. Species belonging to the ‘ B. jelskii species group’ together with four other species ( B. jelskii , B. abramalagae , B. etontii , B. procerus ) distinguished by the distinctive morphology of aedeagus ( Allegro & Giachino 2011a).

Distribution. The type locality probably does not refer to the town near Lima but to the ancient archaeological site in the Cuzco Dept. (southern Peru) ( Allegro & Giachino 2011a); in analogy with the species included in the same species group, Blennidus straneoi is probably restricted to the Andes of southern Peru.
