Abstract and Figures

Twelve new country records are presented to increase our knowledge of the longhorn beetles (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae) of Paraguay. Additional interesting records and updated distributions for each respective species, a new plant association for Lophopoeum carinatulum Bates, 1863, and the first record of the genus Eupromera Westwood, 1846 from Paraguay are presented.

species of the country. To date, the longhorn
beetles of Paraguay have received consider-
able attention. Early work by Bosq (1945;
1947) and Viana (1972) laid the foundation
for the study of Cerambycidae in Paraguay.

More recently, Bezark & Tyson (2020) in-
creased Paraguay’s known cerambycid fauna
from 774 to 863 species, and Cubilla et al.
(2021; 2023; 2024) subsequently added an-

Smith et al. (2022) catalogued Paraguay’s
Sphingidae, and Eger (pers. corr.) has been

Pentatomidae. An annotated summary of
Paraguay’s faunal inventory project can be
found in Kochalka (2014).
As in Bezark & Tyson (2020), the speci-
mens collected represent the southern half of
the country comprising the departments of
Amambay, Canindeyú, Concepción, Guairá,
Itapúa, Misiones, Paraguarí and San Pedro.

The present work adds twelve species to
the known fauna of Paraguay and presents up-
dated distributions for each respective species.
Methods
In addition to the aforementioned literature,
Bezark (2021; 2022), Monné (2024) and Ta-
vakilian and Chevillotte (2024) were used to
establish the validity of new records.
One or two specimens of each species in
suitable condition was photographed. Speci-

Results and Discussion
Subfamily Cerambycidae
Tribe Dichophyiini
Solangebira laetus (Blanchard, 1851)
(Figs. 1, 9)
Remarks: Perhaps the most surprising
record from Paraguay, the closest previ-
ously known records are from Argentina
in the provinces Neuquén, Rio Negro and
Chubut (Napp & Martins, 2002). More-
over, this variably colored species typi-
cally has some orange-reddish markings
on the pronotum, whereas the Paraguay
voucher is entirely monochromatic. Prior
to the generic reassignment in Santos-
Silva et al. (2023), this species was known
by the combinations Eryphus laetus and
Callideriphus laetus.
Distribution: Chile and Argentina (Napp
& Martins, 2002). Paraguay is a new country
record.

Tribe Apomecynini
Bisaltes roseiceps Breuning, 1939
(Fig. 12)
Remarks: Breuning (1971) separated B .
roseiceps from B. strandi Breuning, 1940
based on a questionable feature (the general
color of the pubescence): frons, genae, and
apical area of the elytra with pinkish pu-
bescence, leading to B. roseiceps; and these
areas without pinkish pubescence, leading to
B. strandi. Based on the photographs of the
holotypes, original descriptions (Breuning,
1939; 1940a), and redescriptions by Breuning
(1971), we believe that B. strandi is a junior
synonym of B. roseiceps. However, we prefer
not to establish synonymy until we have ex-
amined a larger number of specimens. These

Holonotus latithorax Thomson, 1861 (Prioninae, Solenopterini), and Periestola Breuning, 1943 (Lamiinae, Acanthocinini) are revalidated. A lectotype is designated for Holonotus latithorax. The following new synonyms are proposed: Lagocheirus plantaris indistinctus Dillon, 1957 = Lagocheirus plantaris plantaris Erichson, 1847 (Lamiinae, Acanthocinini); Paracobelura curiosa Monné & Martins, 1976 = Periestola strandi Breuning, 1943 (Lamiinae, Acanthocinini), with a new country record for Panama; Anisopodus humeralis Bates, 1863 = Anisopodus lignicola Bates, 1863, with a new Brazilian state record. New species are described from Colombia: Lepturges (Lepturges) brechlini; Pseudosparna antonkozlovi; Hyperplatys ushveridzei; Blabia antonkozlovi; and Cycnidolon antonkozlovi. The female of Nealcidion napoensis Nascimento & McClarin, 2018 is described, and the species is reported for Colombia for the first time. Additionally, the following new records are reported: Amniscites pictipes (Bates, 1863) from Colombia; two new department records in Colombia for Onalcidion tavakiliani Audureau, 2013; new department record in Colombia for Trypanidius irroratus Monné & Delfino, 1980; Icublabia multispinosa Galileo & Martins, 2003 for Colombia including additional notes; new department record in Colombia for Blabia intricata Martins & Galileo, 1995; Obrium costaricum Hovore & Chemsak, 1980 for Panama; Pantonyssus nigriceps Bates, 1870 for Colombia; Stizocera geniculata (Pascoe, 1866) for Colombia; and Pygmodeon obtusum (Bates, 1874) for Panama. Stizocera geniculata is also excluded from the fauna of the Brazilian state of Rond and circ;nia.

Hammatoderus wappesi n. sp. and H. garciaorum n. sp. are described from Mexico, Veracruz and Oaxaca and Veracruz, respectively. Hammoderus brasiliensis Breuning, 1943 and Plagiohammus camillus Dillon & Dillon, 1949 are proposed as synonyms of Hammatoderus confusor (Dillon & Dillon, 1941); Plagiohammus rotundipennis Breuning, 1950 is proposed as a synonym of Hammatoderus pollinosus (Bates, 1880). A replacement name, Deliathis neonivea nom. nov., for Deliathis nivea (Breuning, 1943) n. comb., a secondary homonym of D. nivea Bates, 1869, is proposed. Three other new combinations are proposed: Deliathis imperatrix (Thomson, 1868) n. comb.; Monochamus sargi (Bates, 1885) n. comb.; and Monochamus blairi (Breuning, 1936) n. comb. Monochamus sargi and Hammatoderus pollinosus are redescribed. Hammatoderus sticticus (Bates, 1874) is newly recorded from Bolivia, with H. confusor newly recorded from Argentina and Colombia and its known distribution in Brazil expanded to include the state of Sao Paulo. Distribution of Deliathis imperatrix in Mexico is expanded to include the state of Morelos. A key to species of Hammatoderus and a key to species of Taeniotes “amazonum” group are also provided.
