Abstract

Fisher (1932) described Pentomacrus punctatus from eight specimens, the holotype of which is a male specimen deposited in the USNM, type locality Santiago de las Vegas, Cuba (Fig. 1b). Giesbert (1985) synonymized Pentomacrus with Plectromerus. Plectromerus punctatus (Fisher) is listed as endemic to Cuba (Fisher 1932, Monné 2005, Monné and Hovore 2003, Peck 2005).
