Incadorcus zugeri cuzcoensis Arnaud, Noguchi & Bomans 2007: 6

This species was described as a subspecies of the type species of Incadorcus , wherein the authors described differences that should be used to distinguish taxa at the species level. These characters partially include those given in the key, such as whether the temporal process is present or not and the degree of punctation of the elytral interstriae. The type locality is also considered an important tool to differentiate these species, as the Kcosñipata Valley, Cuzco and Chinchao, Huánuco are far apart from each other in Peru. Andean Lucanidae species generally have small distributional ranges, sometimes with different species from one mountain range to another.
