Abstract

"Comparison of the holotype of Neusticurus ocellatus Sinitsin, 1930, with 22 paratypes shows that two species are involved. Neusticurus ocellatus, type locality Rurrenabaque, Beni, Bolivia, is revalidated; the holotype is the only specimen assigned to it at present. The paratypes from Chanchamayo and Perené, Department of Junin, Peru, are assigned to Neusticurus ecpleopus Cope, '1876' [1875] (sensu Uzzell, 1966), which is considered to be a composite taxon not yet susceptible of dissection"--P. [1].
