§ Macraspis nazareti Soula, 1998

Macraspis nazareti Soula 1998: 45 ( Colombia)

Distribution. Suriname: Soula 1998: 45, 111. Other: Soula 1998: 45, 111 (Colombia, Mexico); Soula 2003: 45 (Central America, Colombia, Mexico).

Note. Soula (1998: 45) records Macraspis nazareti for Suriname, but comments that this location needs to be confirmed. In Soula (2003: 45), Suriname is no longer mentioned. According to Soula (1998, 2003), the species is otherwise distributed from Mexico to Colombia. We assume that the “Surinamese” specimen is mislabeled and regard this species as not occurring in the research area.
