Polymitoleiopus euprepes

Polymitoleiopus euprepes (Bates, 1885) (Fig. 7) Lepturges euprepes Bates, 1885: 404. Remarks. Bates (1885) described P. euprepes based on a single specimen from Mexico. Currently, P. euprepes is known from Mexico (Oaxaca? and Quintana Roo) (Monné 2024; Tavakilian & Chevillotte 2026). According to Bates (1885), “Hab. Mexico, Oaxaca? (H. Deyrolle in coll. Bates).” We could not find a work reporting the presence of Henri Deyrolle in Mexico. According to Faure (2023) (translated): “For his part, Henri Deyrolle was a dealer in insects, particularly exotic Coleoptera and Lepidoptera, as well as entomological literature. After being established at 27 Rue du Colisée, he moved during the 1870s to 191 and later 248 Rue du Faubourg-Saint-Honoré. He also served as a natural history expert to the auctioneer at the Hôtel des Ventes on Rue Drouot.” Therefore, H. Deyrolle was probably not the collector of the specimen, but rather the person who sold it. Material examined. HONDURAS (new country record), Francisco Morazán: Zamorano Univ.
