Clarke Hotel Flora & Fauna Casilla 2097 Santa Cruz de la Sierra, Bolivia [email protected] Abstract. Epimelitta postimelina Giesbert, 1996 and Odontocera apicula Bates, 1885 are transferred to the new genus Odontomelitta. Epimelitta postimelina, with closed procoxal cavities, cannot remain in Epimelittta Bates, 1870, a genus characterized by open procoxal cavities. The short elytra and tegmen (with caliper-shaped lateral lobes) of the aedeagus of both species excludes them from the genus Odontocera Audinet-Serville, 1833, with long elytra and tegmen (with strap-shaped lateral lobes). Both species are illustrated, and host plant and host flower records provided for O. apicula. Key words. Cerambycinae, host plants, new combinations, Taxonomy. Introduction This paper is the last in a series by Clarke (2014a, 2014b) and Clarke et al. (2015) dedicated to the removal of seven species (with closed coxal cavities or subulate elytra) from the genus Epimelitta Bates, 1870 (characterized by open procoxal cavities and short cuneate elytra); and two (with open coxal cavi- ties and subulate elytra) from the genus Phygopoda Thomson, 1864 (characterized by closed procoxal cavities and short cuneate elytra). It is also the first dedicated to the removal of species inappropriately placed in the genus Odontocera Audinet-Serville, 1833 as justified below. History Audinet-Serville (1833) described the genus Odontocera (for four species transferred from Stenopterus Illiger, 1804) with the following diagnosis [author’s translation from the original French]. Elytra as long as wings [author, or maybe, “long enough to cover wings”], subulate, abruptly narrowed towards middle; prothorax without tubercle laterally; femoral clave globose; antennae filiform, more or less setose, mod- erately long, 11-semented, from segments 5 or 6 thickened, widened and serrate; palps rather long, projecting, subequal; eyes large, rather convex, each lobe close together below the antennae; head pro- longed anteriorly, rostrate; mandibles straight and elongated; scutellum small; pro- and mesotarsi hav- ing the first three segments short and triangular, the fourth almost as long as the rest together; meta- tarsi larger than the others, the first segment cylindrical, and longer than the following two together. Bates (1870) described the genus Epimelitta with the following diagnosis [author’s translation from the original Latin]. Tomopterus-like, differing by: completely hirsute body and legs, elytra subacuminate to apex and widely dehiscent. Rostrum short and broad. Antennae slightly incrassate, serrate. Prothorax short, very transverse, convex, and hirsute. Metatibia very hairy. Bates (1885) described Odontocera apicula from San Félix, Panama from two males. He drew atten- tion to the similarity of his new species to Odontocera compressipes White, 1855. Giesbert (1996) described Epimelitta postimelina from Chiapas, Mexico from 6 males and 2 females; and included the following diagnosis of the genus Epimelitta. Robust form; short to moderately short, tapering elytra; and short, densely hairy legs. Clarke (2014a) transferred four species of Epimelitta [Epimelitta aglaia (Newman, 1840), Epimelitta longipennis Zajciw, 1963, Epimelitta triangularis Fuchs, 1961 and Epimelitta viridimicans Fisher, 1952] and two species of Phygopoda [Phygopoda albitarsis (Klug, 1825) and Phygopoda panamaensis Giesbert, 1996] to new genera. 1 2 • INSECTA MUNDI 0461, February 2016 CLARKE Clarke (2014b) transferred Epimelitta barbicrus (Kirby, 1818) and Epimelitta manni (Fisher, 1930) with closed procoxal cavities and fissate elytra to the new genus Fissapoda. Clarke et al. (2015) transferred Epimelitta laticornis (Klug, 1825) with closed procoxal cavities to the new genus Klugiatragus. Material and Methods The material for this study is based on a male and female paratype of E. postimelina lent to the author by James Wappes (ACMT), collected by him in the State of Chiapas, Mexico; and 21 males and eight females of O. apicula collected by the author and Sonia Zamalloa in the humid tropical forest of the Department of Santa Cruz, Bolivia. The latter were supplemented by Larry Bezark’s web site (Bezark 2015) with photographs of Bates’ Panamanian male type of O. apicula and a female specimen from Panama (with helpful observations from him confirming the identification of Bolivian specimens as this species). One character, commonly used in descriptions of Rhinotragini is the point at which the prothorax is widest. In an attempt to reduce inconsistency this character is presented in numerical form; and referred to as the “prothoracic quotient”, the result of dividing the length of the prothorax by the distance from the front border to its widest point, as explained in Clarke (2015). The terminology used to describe the genitalia follow those

Bolivian forms of both sexes of I. ichneumoniformis Bates, 1870, I. laevicollis Tippmann, 1953, and I. planifrons Zajciw, 1972 are redescribed. New synonymy established: I. laevicollis Tippmann, 1953 = I. carinifrons Zajciw, 1972 syn. nov. Notes on host-flowers, photographs and a key to the Bolivian species of Isthmiade are provided.

Haack Abstract: Summary data are given for the 25 new species of exotic bark- and wood-boring Coleoptera first reported in the continental United States between 1985 and 2005, including 2 Buprestidae (Agrilus planipennis and Agrilus prionurus), 5 Cerambycidae (Anoplophora glabripennis, Callidiellum rufipenne, Phoracantha recurva, Sybra alternans, and Tetrops praeusta), and 18 Scolytidae (Ambrosiodmus lewisi, Euwallacea fornicatus, Hylastes opacus, Hylurgops palliatus, Hylurgus ligniperda, Orthotomicus erosus, Phloeosinus armatus, Pityogenes bidentatus, Scolytus schevyrewi, Tomicus piniperda, Xyleborinus alni, Xyleborus atratus, Xyleborus glabratus, Xyleborus pelliculosus, Xyleborus pfeilii, Xyleborus seriatus, Xyleborus similis, and Xylosandrus mutilatus). In addition, summary interception data are presented for the wood-associated beetles in the families Bostrichidae, Buprestidae, Cerambycidae, Curculionidae, Lyctidae, Platypodidae, and Scolytidae, based on the USDA Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service “Port Information Network” database for plant pests intercepted at US ports of entry from 1985 to 2000. Wood-associated insects were most often intercepted on crating, followed by dunnage and pallets. The five imported products most often associated with these 8341 interceptions were tiles, machinery, marble, steel, and ironware. A significantly higher proportion of the most frequently intercepted true bark beetles

P. O. Box 141874 Gainesville, FL 32614-1874 USA http://www.centerforsystematicentomology.org/ Insecta Mundi is a journal primarily devoted to insect systematics, but articles can be published on any non- marine arthropod. Topics considered for publication include systematics, taxonomy, nomenclature, checklists, faunal works, and natural history. Insecta Mundi will not consider works in the applied sciences (i.e. medical entomology, pest control research, etc.), and no longer publishes book reviews or editorials. Insecta Mundi pub- lishes original research or discoveries in an inexpensive and timely manner, distributing them free via open access on the internet on the date of publication. Insecta Mundi is referenced or abstracted by several sources including the Zoological Record, CAB Abstracts, etc. Insecta Mundi is published irregularly throughout the year, with completed manuscripts assigned an indi- vidual number. Manuscripts must be peer reviewed prior to submission, after which they are reviewed by the editorial board to ensure quality.

  • Electronic Version 2005 Checklist of the Cerambycidae, of the Western Hemisphere
    Electronic Version 2005 Checklist of the Cerambycidae, of the Western Hemisphere Oreodera olivaceotincta Tippman, male Miguel A. Monné Museu Nacional, Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro Quina da Boa Vista, 20940-040, Rio de Janeiro, RJ, Brazil Frank T. Hovore 14734 Sundance Place Santa Clarita, CA, USA, 91387-1542 2005 2 Electronic Checklist of the Cerambycidae of the Western Hemisphere 2005 Version (updated through 01 January 2006) Miguel A. Monné & Frank T. Hovore, Compilers Introduction The Cerambycidae, commonly known as longhorned beetles, longicorns, capricorns, round-headed borers, timber beetles, goat beetles (bock-käfern), or sawyer beetles, comprise one of the largest and most varied families of Coleoptera, with body length alone varying from ± 2.5 mm (Cyrtinus sp.) to slightly over 17 cm (Titanus giganteus). Distributed world-wide from sea level to montane sites as high as 4,200 m elevation wherever their host plants are found, cerambycids have long been a favorite with collectors. Taxonomic interest in the family has been fairly consistent for the past century, but the description of new taxa has accelerated in recent decades thanks to the efforts of Chemsak, Linsley, Giesbert, Martins, Monné, Galileo, Napp, and other workers. This checklist builds upon the efforts of Blackwelder (1946), Chemsak & Linsley (1982), Chemsak, Linsley & Noguera (1992), and Monné & Giesbert (1994), and presently includes nearly 9,000 described species and subspecies, covering the terrestrial hemisphere from Canada and Alaska to Argentina and Chile, and including the Caribbean arc. Adult Cerambycidae, upon which most taxonomic studies in the family have been based, vary widely in their habits. Some species are nocturnal, many are attracted to artificial light, and they also may be found at night on the trunks and branches of their host plants, or on foliage.
