Xenispa elegans (Baly, 1875) stat. restit. & comb. nov. Demotispa elegans Baly, 1875: 75 (type locality: ‘Ecuador’; ST in BMNH). Remarks. This species was synonymized with X. cyanipennis by SPAETH (1938), however, the latter has uniformly yellow antennae and much coarser punctation of the elytra. I was not able to locate the type specimen(s) in BMNH, however, I have seen several specimens collected recently in Ecuador, and they perfectly agree with the primary description, having bicolorous antennae, coarser punctation and being somewhat narrower. Therefore I restore species status of X. elegans and Ecuador is removed from the range of X. cyanipennis. Distribution. Ecuador (BALY 1875).
