Previous Colombian records are from Magdalena, Valle del Cauca and Antioquia. The new records are from the Región Natural Andina. One of the sites, the Santuario de Flora y Fauna Otún-Quimbaya in the Cordillera Central, is part of a protected zone of the Río Otún middle basin. It has a bimodal pluviometric regime, with peaks in April and October and receives 2500 mm mean annual rainfall. The area is covered by a mosaic of mature natural forest, secondary forest with natural regeneration and a monospecific plantation of “urapán” (<i>Fraxinus chinensis</i>) and “roble” (<i>Quercus humboldtii)</i>.
