I have examples of this species from Cayenne and Eastern 

 Ecuador, and an immature specimen, apparently of " Bogota " 

 make. Hauxwell has transmitted it from Pebas, and Bartlett 

 from Chamicuros, while Castelnau and Deville obtained it 

 on the Rio Javari ; so that it is certainly widely distributed 

 over the Amazonian subregion.
