Clytini neotropicais II (Coleoptera, Cerambycidae, Cerambycinae)

Cerambícidos (Coleoptera, Cerambycidae) del Valle de Cusco con clave de identificación

“…The most important characters are a transverse pronotal band near the anterior margin and a posterior transverse band near the posterior margin. It should be noted that the pronotal bands in the examined specimen are wider than the bands shown in the male holotype (Martins & Galileo, 2008). At the moment it can only be assumed that it could be a color variation.…”

New records of Caribbomerus from Hispaniola with redescription of C. elongatus (Fisher) and a key to the genus in the West Indies (Coleoptera, Cerambycidae, Cerambycinae, Graciliini)

“…Caribbomerus is most easily recognized by the following combination of characters: long, narrow body (4-11 mm long; 0.7-1.9 mm wide); elongate, usually parallel-sided elytra (elytron length 5-9 times its width); anterior coxal cavities closed posteriorly by a procoxal process which is extremely narrow between the procoxae and then abruptly widened behind; coarsely faceted eyes; and antennae distinctly longer than body (in part, based on Martins and Galileo 2005). Other characters include: third antennomere distinctly shorter than all others (with exception of pedicel); elytral apex of most species impunctate and with integument smooth and distinctly paler than remainder; prothorax 0.16-0.25 length of body and widest at or near posterior third in most species.…”
