Catalogue of the type-species of the genera of the Cerambycidae, Disteniidae, Oxypeltidae and Vesperidae (Coleoptera) of the Neotropical Region
Abstract
The present list includes all available names, both valid and invalid, and the type-species of the genera and subgenera of Cerambycidae, Disteniidae, Oxypeltidae and Vesperidae (Coleoptera) of the Neotropical Region. Two new family-group names are proposed: Neoibidionini (type-genus: Neoibidion, a replacement name for Ibidion Audinet-Serville, 1834, junior homonymy of Ibidion Gory, 1833) for Ibidionini Thomson, 1861 and Proholopterini (type-genus Proholopterus, a replacement name for Holopterus Blanchard, 1851, junior homonymy of Holopterus Brehm, 1845) for Holopterini Lacordaire, 1868. Oideterus Thomson, 1857a:15 is revalidated with the type-species, Oideterus buquetii Thomson, 1857 (by monotypy). Udeterus Thomson, 1858b:515 is a junior synonym of Oideterus Thomson, 1857. Acanthocornis Monné & Monné, 2011 (Prioninae, Meroscelisini) is a new synonym of Hyleoza Galileo, 1987 and Acanthocornis flavus Monné & Monné, 2011 = Hyleoza confusa Tavakilian & Galileo, 1991. The genus Acanthocornis Monné & Monné, 2011 was erroneously described in the tribe Anacolini. Acanthinodera Hope, 1834 is considered a nomen protectum and hereafter used as valid genus name. Amallopodes Lequien, 1833 is a nomen oblitum consequently invalid name. Hephaestion (?) zikani Melzer, 1923 is designated as the type-species of Parahephaestion Melzer, 1930; Corynellus mimulus Bates, 1885 as the type-species of Corynellus Bates, 1885; Cosmius ochraceus Perty, 1832 as the type-species of Cosmius Perty, 1832 non Cosmius Dumeril, 1806, Diptera, and Alampyris nigra Bates, 1881 as the type-species of Alampyris Bates, 1881.
... However, since then, the number of Brazilians working on the family has increased, with new species described by 20 researchers. Additionally, the number of species described in collaboration with both foreign and other Brazilian researchers has increased, and new lines of research and collaboration have been established, many focusing on the following topics: ecological studies (e.g., Linzmeier and Ribeiro-Costa 2009, 2012, 2013, Bouzan et al. 2015, Teles et al. 2020, genetics (e.g., Vasconcellos-Neto 1988, Almeida et al. 2009, Mello et al. 2014, Azambuja et al. 2020, Vidal et al. 2023, behavior (e.g., Macedo et al. 1998, Flinte and Macedo 2004, Nogueira-de-Sá et al. 2005, Medeiros and Boligon 2007, Chaboo et al. 2014, description of immatures stages and life history (e.g., Duckett and Casari 2002, Moura and Duckett 2002, Fernandes and Buzzi 2007, Linzmeier et al. 2007, Świętojańska and Medeiros 2007, Casari and Teixeira 2008, Antonio et al. 2022, Świętojańska and Linzmeier 2024, and host plant association (e.g., Buzzi 1994, Nogueira-de-Sá and Vasconcellos-Neto 2003a, Flinte et al. 2009b. Baseline data on these topics for the New World chrysomelid fauna, including Brazil were published in the book series "Biology of Chrysomelidae" (Jolivet et al. 1988, Jolivet and Cox 1996a, 1996b, 1996c, Furth 2003, followed by the series "Research on Chrysomelidae" with nine volumes published since 2008 (Jolivet et al. 2008, 2013, Chaboo and Schmitt 2017, 2023, Schmitt et al. 2019 Coleção Entomológica do Museu de Ciências Naturais do Rio Grande do Sul (MCNZ), Porto Alegre, Rio Grande do Sul; and Museu Nacional do Rio de Janeiro (MNRJ), Rio de Janeiro, Rio de Janeiro. ...
The leaf beetles (Chrysomelidae) are one of the most species-rich family of herbivorous beetles with about 45,000 species worldwide. Based on the contributions of chrysomelidologists to the Taxonomic Catalog of the Brazilian Fauna - CTFB, the family comprises 6,079 species in 562 genera of which 951 species are endemic to Brazil, standing out as the most diverse, representing 4.8% of the Brazilian fauna and 17.1% of the beetle species. Chrysomelidae has twelve subfamilies with nine reported to Brazil: Galerucinae, the richest with 1,916 species in 202 genera, followed by Cassidinae, Eumolpinae, Cryptocephalinae, Chrysomelinae, Bruchinae, Criocerinae, Lamprosomatinae and Sagrinae - this with only one species. Most of these subfamilies need urgent revision, since many species are poorly characterized, and polymorphism is frequent in some groups. The Czech couple Jan and Bohumila Bechyně were the researchers who described most species from Brazil. Furthermore, despite the increase of research on biology, natural history, host plants, genetics, ecology from 1980’s much still need to be investigated to better known the Brazilian Chrysomelidae and probably many new species are yet to be discovered.

... The fact that only males were captured in traps baited with virgin females, as well as the absence of P. chilensis captures in male-baited and control traps, preliminarily suggests that the females emit possible "volatile or airborne" pheromones to attract only males, a characteristic reported to date only in the subfamilies Prioninae and Lepturinae [20,30], but practically unknown in the subfamily Cerambycinae [18]. It is, however, important to point out that the taxonomic status of P. chilensis is uncertain: it has been classified as a Cerambycine [37], a Lepturinae [38], a Cerambycinae [1], and an incertae sedis [39] and mentioned as a case of misplaced taxa [40]. Nevertheless, in the last decade, there have been reports suggesting a deviation from this pattern in a few cerambicinaes. ...
During the spring–summer seasons between 2019 and 2023, in the localities of Maquehue (La Araucanía Region) and Llifén (Los Ríos Region), we collected 262 virgin Proholopterus chilensis (1 female/2.3 males) specimens emerging from the live trunks of N. obliqua trees, an atypical sex ratio in Cerambycidae, suggesting high male competition for females. Virgin specimens of both sexes were individually placed in panel traps in the field, capturing only males (n = 184) over the field study seasons and only in traps baited with females. This fact preliminarily suggests the P. chilensis females emit possible “volatile or airborne” pheromones (eventually being a long-range sex pheromone), something unusual in Cerambycinae, the subfamily to which it currently belongs, although the taxonomic status of the species is under debate. In Llifén and Santiago (Metropolitan Region), behavioral observations were conducted, which allowed us to define the conditions necessary for male–female encounters that were replicated when carrying out volatile captures (Head Space Dynamic = HSD) and collections of compounds from terminalias excised from females. In field trials, virgin females less than ten days old were more attractive than older ones and attracted males during the night, i.e., between 23:00 and 5:00 AM, when the ambient temperature exceeded 11.6 °C. The aeration of females under the conditions described above and subsequent analysis of extracts by GC-MS allowed the identification of compounds absent in males and the control, including two oxygenated sesquiterpenes, a nitrogenous compound (C20), and a long-chain hydrocarbon (C26). From the terminalia extracts, hentriacontane, heptacosane, and heneicosyl, heptacosyl and docosyl acetates were identified by GC-MS, and their roles are unknown in the development of short-distance sexual behaviors, but they could serve to mark a trail leading the male towards the female in the final stage of approach for courtship/mating. Thus, we proposed the hypothesis that P. chilensis females emit both a long-range and a trail-pheromone, which, if confirmed, would be a rare case in this family. The specific identity of the compounds obtained by HSD, as well as the activities of these chemicals and those obtained from the terminalias, should be evaluated in future behavioral studies, as well as regarding their potential to attract males under field conditions. The current document is the first report on volatiles obtained from aerations and compounds extracted from female terminalia in P. chilensis.

... The consistent clustering of Spondylidinae and Aseminae in the phylogenetic trees supports the idea that these two groups may be treated as a single entity, Spondylidinae, with some cases of synonymous nomenclature (Linsley et al. 1961;Gressitt et al. 1970;Nakamura et al. 1981;Napp et al. 1994). In addition, some other scholars believe that Oxypeltidae is a family at the same taxonomic level as Cerambycidae (Monne 2012). The morphological identification of Orsodacnidae suggests that it is an independent family within the order Coleoptera . ...
Longhorn beetles (Cerambycidae) play a vital role in global ecosystems. Some of them contribute to nutrient cycling and pollination, while others, pose a threat to forestry production. Despite their ecological importance, there has been a lack of comprehensive analyses on the mitochondrial genomes of Cerambycidae beetles. In this study, we have conducted mitochondrial genome sequencing and annotation for four Cerambycidae beetles: Monochamus sutor , Monochamus guerryi , Monochamus galloprovincialis , and Monochamus latefasciatus . Our analysis revealed a high degree of conservation in these mitochondrial genomes, with rare gene rearrangements observed across the Cerambycidae family. Additionally, a notable bias towards AT content was identified, with most genes using ATN as the start codon and TAA as the stop codon. Except for trnS1, all tRNA genes showed typical cloverleaf secondary structures. Phylogenetic analysis using IQ-TREE and Phylobayes consistently produced congruent topologies. At the gene level analyses, our results highlighted the remarkable conservation of the COX1 gene. Furthermore, at the species level, we observed strong adaptability in the Spondylidinae and Lepturinae subfamilies. We also offer our insights into contentious aspects of the phylogeny. Overall, our research contributes to a deeper understanding of the phylogeny and evolution of Cerambycidae, laying the groundwork for future population genetic investigations.
The transfer of Neotropical genera from Morimopsini to Apomecynini is proposed. Two new species are described, Tuberolamia santossilvai sp. nov. and Polytuberotum boteroi sp. nov. The unknown female of Tuberolamia andicola Breuning, 1940 is described and illustrated. Keys to species, distribution map, and taxonomic considerations for the group are provided.
More than 4700 nominal family-group names (including names for fossils and ichnotaxa) are nomenclaturally available in the order Coleoptera. Since each family-group name is based on the concept of its type genus, we argue that the stability of names used for the classification of beetles depends on accurate nomenclatural data for each type genus. Following a review of taxonomic literature, with a focus on works that potentially contain type species designations, we provide a synthesis of nomenclatural data associated with the type genus of each nomenclaturally available family-group name in Coleoptera. For each type genus the author(s), year of publication, and page number are given as well as its current status (i.e., whether treated as valid or not) and current classification.
Information about the type species of each type genus and the type species fixation (i.e., fixed originally or subsequently, and if subsequently, by whom) is also given. The original spelling of the family-group name that is based on each type genus is included, with its author(s), year, and stem. We append a list of nomenclaturally available family-group names presented in a classification scheme. Because of the importance of the Principle of Priority in zoological nomenclature, we provide information on the date of publication of the references cited in this work, when known. Several nomenclatural issues emerged during the course of this work. We therefore appeal to the community of coleopterists to submit applications to the International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature (henceforth “Commission”) in order to permanently resolve some of the problems outlined here.

The validity of two forgotten names, Eryphus Klug, 1829 and E. rubricollis Klug, 1829, is discussed. The former is considered a nomen oblitum and synonymized with Eriphus Audinet-Serville, 1834, a nomen protectum; the latter is revalidated and Eriphus purpuratus Chevrolat, 1862 is considered a junior synonym of Eriphus rubricollis (Klug, 1829). A lectotype is designated to Eryphus rubricollis Klug, 1829. The date of the work where Eriphus Audinet-Serville, 1834 was described is corrected. A new genus is described in Dichophyiini Gistel, 1848 to include the species currently allocated in Eryphus sensu Napp & Martins (2002). The dates of publication of genera and species described by Fairmaire & Germain (Révision des Coléoptères du Chili (suite)) are corrected.
Herein, we present a revision of Periboeum Thomson, 1864 and its species, which are redescribed based on a detailed morphological study of exoskeleton. In addition, two new species are described from Brazil: Periboeum birai sp. nov. from the Caatinga biome (Bahia state) and Periboeum santossilvai sp. nov. from the Amazon biome (Pará and Amazonas states). The following synonymies are also proposed: P. acumina-tum (Thomson, 1861) = P. atylodes Salvador, 1978 syn. nov.; P. ocellatum Gounelle, 1909 = P. maculatum Magno, 1987 syn. nov.; Sphaerion inerme White, 1853 = P. aduncum Napp & Martins, 1984 syn. nov. The following new combination is also proposed, Mephritus paucispinum (Lameere, 1890) comb. nov. (previously allocated in Periboeum). Additionally, we present new distributional records for P. obscuricone, Martins & Monné, 1975 (Peru and Argentina), P. terminatum (Perroud, 1855) (Uruguay), and P. vicinum (Perroud, 1855) (Bolivia). An updated key, photographs of all species (including types, when available), distribution maps, scanning electron microscopy images and schematic drawings are provided. Through this study, we conclude that transversal wrinkles near the posterior margin of pronotum (in some species, it is present on the entire pronotum) should be included as a new diagnostic feature for the genus.
