Description

Chlorochrysa fulgentissima Chapman

Chlorochrysa fulgentissima Chapman, 1901: 225 (Inca Mine, Peru).

Now Chlorochrysa calliparaea fulgentissima Chapman, 1901. See Hellmayr, 1936: 76, Isler and Isler, 1999: 265–266, and Dickinson, 2003: 809.

HOLOTYPE: AMNH 72089, adult male, collected at Santo Domingo (5 Inca Mine), 6000 ft, 13.51S, 69.41W (Stephens and Traylor, 1983), Puno, Peru, on 5 December 1899, by H.H. Keays.

COMMENTS: Chapman gave the AMNH number of the holotype in the original description and said that Keays had sent two males and one female, all from Inca Mine. The two paratypes are: AMNH 72087 (Keays no. 10), female, 2 December 1899, and AMNH 72088 (Keays no. 10a), male, 26 November 1899.
