Acanthoscelides peruvianus

Acanthoscelides peruvianus (Pic, 1938). Combination confirmed. Bruchus peruvianus Pic, 1938c: p. 24. From label: "Vilcomora [sp?] / Perou" [Peru]. Syntype male deposited in the MNHN. There is a “ Holotype ” label affixed to this specimen not added by M. Pic. However, the original publication does not designate a holotype nor does it indicate the number of specimens examined. Because no lectotype has been published, this must therefore be considered a syntype.
