Elodes velutina Solier, 1849 (Fig. 4) Elodes velutinus Solier, 1849: 460 (locus typicus: Calbuco) Helodes velutinus Solier: Gemminger & von Harold 1869: 1620 Elodes velutinus: Moroni 1985: 173 (Chile, prov. Llanquihue, Calbuco) Elodes velutina: Pic 1914: 26 (checklist; Chile); Blackwelder 1944: 266 (checklist; Chile) Remarks. The type specimen was not found in the collection of the MNHN. Specimens resembling the beetle il- lustrated in Gay (1854) and identified in 1800s and early 1900s by other coleopterists as Elodes velutina belong to an undescribed genus (Ruta in litt.). A supposed larva of Elodes velutina was described by Ruta et al. (2018).
