Abstract

The southern South American genus Hoplopygothrix Schürhoff is augmented with the description of a new species from Bolivia. The genus now contains two species, Hoplopygothrix atropurpurea (Schaum) and Hoplopygothrix boliviensis Ratcliffe, new species. Illustrations accompany the description, and a key is provided to identify the species.
