Abstract

Pilobalia (Pimeliinae: Nycteliini) is an endemic genus of the Andean region of South America, distributed in Peru, Bolivia, Chile and Argentina. The objective of this work was to update the knowledge of the genus in the Peruvian territory, providing an updated checklist of species and new distribution records. From examination of around 580 specimens, a total of 26 species and two subspecies of Pilobalia are recorded for Peru, incorporating two that were not previously recorded, P. decorata immaculata (Blanchard) and P. oblonga (Blanchard). Also distribution maps and comments about its distribution patterns are provided.
