TABLE 1. — Number of specimens of G. dichroa Blanchard, 1846 and G. lacordairii (Oken, 1834) collected in the range of G. dichroa (see definition in the captions of Fig. 13). Data compiled from the material examined by Cupello & Vaz-de-Mello (2013, 2015) and herein, from information provided by colleagues (F. Ocampo and P. G. da Silva, the latter indicated by the collection abbreviations LBEV, MCCR, MCTP, MECB, MHNU, MRGC), and from additional records found in the literature (Blanchard 1846; Martínez 1959; Barattini & Sáenz 1961, 1964; Cabrera-Walsh & Cordo 1997; Morelli et al. 2002; Sánchez & Genise 2008; Canziani & González-Vainer 2022). Bold denotes places where both species have been recorded.

(1), 1826-1827 or 1829 (1; reference: Blanchard 1846; this record refers to the holotype, the sole specimen known from Montevideo. Blanchard (1846) stated that the specimen was collected by Alcide d’Orbigny (1802-1857) in Montevideo ‘near the sea’. D’Orbigny stayed in Montevideo during three different periods: 1) 29th October to 17th November 1826; 2) 2nd December 1826 to 10th January 1827; and 3) 12th to 27th December 1829 (d’Orbigny 1835, 1839-1843; Papavero 1971). He may have collected the holotype in any of these three periods.)TacuarembóNo specific locality?
