Distribution: Holotype: Junction, TX. Similar Species: BOLD:ADF4487 is a BIN group at BOLD well separated by DNA barcode from the single sequenced specimen of "ovaliger" (USNM ENT 01236171) which is placed in BOLD:AAF7534, a BIN which also includes specimens identified as "stictella". USNM ENT 01236171 is also well separated from all other specimens in BOLD:AAF7534. Pending further investigation, we assume that it is correctly identified and that BOLD:ADF4487 refers to a cryptic, possibly undescribed species. Pinned specimens of related species. (Hint: select View by Region on the related species page.) Synonymy: • Atopothoures ovaliger Blanchard, 1975
