Remarks

The problems related to the name Eulaema cingulata were discussed in detail by Nemésio (2009:166). He placed E. pseudocingulata in synonymy with E. cingulata and proposed a new taxon, E. marcii, for what was then interpreted as E. cingulata sensu Oliveira (2006), based on the conclusion that this latter form had not been found in the region around Cayenne, the type locality of E. cingulata and its older synonyms. However, this is not backed up by data provided in Oliveira (2000; unpublished doctoral dissertation), who lists a few male specimens from that area. In addition, recent molecular and morphometric analyses conducted by Andrade (2021; unpublished master dissertation) did not support the recognition of separate species in this lineage. Therefore, only the oldest available name, Eulaema cingulata, is being used to refer to this taxon.
