The species of Eupelmus (Eupelmus) Dalman and Eupelmus (Episolindelia) Girault (Chalcidoidea: Eupelmidae) in North America north of Mexico are revised. Illustrated keys are given to differentiate the three subgenera of Eupelmus and females and known males of 19 recognized species of E. (Eupelmus) and E. (Episolindelia). Five species are classified in E. (Episolindelia), including the three newly described species E. (Episolindelia) fuscipectus n. sp., E. (Episolindelia) grisselli n. sp., and E. (Episolindelia) varicauda n. sp., which are based only on females. Eupelmus rubicola (Ashmead), described originally from a unique male, is tentatively associated with females and is classified as E. (Episolindelia) rubicola n. stat. based on this association. Fourteen species are classified in E. (Eupelmus), including the four newly described species E. (Eupelmus) arizonensis n. sp., E. (Eupelmus) curticinctus n. sp., E. (Eupelmus) nitifrons n. sp., and E. (Eupelmus) pervius n. sp. Two Palaearctic species, E. (Eupelmus) stramineipes Nikol’skaya and E. (Eupelmus) microzonus Förster, are newly recorded from North America. Newly placed in synonymy under E. microzonus is E. (Eupelmus) insulae Masi n. syn. It is further suggested that E. (Eupelmus) nigricauda Nikol’skaya likely is also a junior synonym of E. microzonus. Information is also given on the identity of the Palaearctic names E. (Eupelmus) afer Silvestri, E. (Eupel- mus) martellii Masi, E. (Eupelmus) nubilipennis Förster, E. (Eupelmus) spongipartus Förster, and E. (Eupelmus) urozonus Dalman. A lectotype is designated for E. (Eupelmus) pini Taylor and under this name are placed in synonymy the Palaearctic names E. aloysii Russo n. syn., E. carinifrons Yang n. syn., E. sculpturatus Nikol’skaya n. syn., and Eupelmus suecicus Hedqvist n. syn. Four other new synonyms made are Eupelmus amicus Girault under E. (Eupelmus) cushmani(Crawford) n. syn., Eupelmus ficigerae (Ashmead) under E. (Eupelmus) dryorhizoxeni Ashmead n. syn., Eupelmus momphae Gahan under E. (Eupelmus) cyaniceps Ashmead n. syn., and Eupelmus quercus under E. (Eupelmus) cynipidis Ashmead n. syn. The subspecies Eupelmus cyaniceps scolyti Liao, described originally from China, is treated as E. (Eupelmus) scolyti Liao n. stat. and compared to E. (Eupelmus) formosae Ashmead. Eupelmus floridanus Howard is treated as a nomen dubium and the following 20 species are newly transferred from Eupelmus to other genera — Anastatus (Anastatus) ashmeadi (Melander & Brues) n. comb., Brasema aurata (Ashmead) n. comb., Brasema barda (Girault) n. comb., Brasema brevicauda (Crawford) n. comb., Brasema bruchivora (Crawford) n. comb., Brasema coccidis (Girault) n. comb., Brasema dryophantae (Ashmead) n. comb., Brasema flavovariegata (Ashmead) n. comb., Brasema fonteia (Walker) n. comb., Brasema juglandis (Ashmead) n. comb., Brasema lamachus (Walker) n. comb., Brasema limneriae (Howard) n. comb., Brasema macrocarpae (Ashmead) n. comb., Brasema neococcidis (Peck) n. comb., Brasema neomexicana (Girault) n. comb., Brasema rosae (Ashmead) n. comb., Brasema speciosa (Girault) n. comb., Brasema sphaericephalus (Ashmead) n. comb., Reikosiella (Reikosiella) biguttata (Girault) n. comb., and R. (Reikosiel- la) charitopoides (Girault) n. comb.

The location of types of Bruchus limbatus Horn, B. pruininus Horn, B. sordidus Horn, B. pauperculus LeConte, and B. distinguendus Horn is discussed, and lectotypes designated where needed. The confusion in American literature involving the names Bruchus obtectus Say, B. obsoletus Say, and B. distinguendus Horn is reviewed. Bruchus erythrocerus, inadvertently validated by Riley (1871), is synonymized with Meibomeus musculus (Say).

“…In the southeastern U.S., adult cowpea curculios have been collected from at least 21 species of plants from 10 plant families, while eggs and larvae have been collected from four species of the subtribe Phaseolinae (Fabaceae): snapbean, Phaseolus vulgaris L., deer pea, Vigna luteola L., Strophostyles umbellata (Muhlenburg ex Willdenow) Britton and S. helvula (L.) Elliott (A single larva was collected from cotton, Gossypium hirsutum L., in 1905, but Ainslee (1910) considered it an accidental occurrence) (Ainslee 1910, Arant 1938, Bissell 1938, Bissell 1939, Langston 1939, Bissell 1940, Hetrick 1947, Dupree & Beckham 1955. These alternate host plants may provide important nutritional resources and protective habitat to cowpea curculio before, during, or after the cowpea cropping season.…”

ABSTRACT Cowpea curculio, Chalcodermus aeneus (Boheman), is an important pest of cowpea, Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walpers, in the southeastern United States. This insect also feeds on other fabaceous crops and a number of wild host plants. In a field survey done in Alabama during 1992 to 1994, adults of cowpea curculio were collected on 31 alternate host plant species representing 11 plant families, and eggs and larvae were collected on three fabaceous plant species of the subtribe Phaseolinae. Before the cowpea cropping season in the spring, some of the alternate host plants of adults included narrow-leaved vetch, Vicia sativa ssp. nigra (L.) Erhardt, purple cudweed, Gnaphalium purpureum L., heartwing sorrel, Rumex hastatulus L., cutleaf eveningprimrose, Oenothera laciniata L., and moss verbena, Verbena tenuisecta Briquet. In May and June, cowpea curculios reproduced on snapbean pods, Phaseolus vulgaris L., before cowpea plants bloomed, indicating that adults from this new generation could infest cowpeas during pod formation. Adults fed on sicklepod, Senna obtusifolia (L.) Irwin & Barneby, during the cowpea cropping season. After the end of the cowpea cropping season, cowpea curculio produced an overwintering generation on Strophostyles umbellata (L.) Elliott and S. helvula (Muhlenburg ex Willdenow) Britton. Adults overwintered in clumps of broomsedge, Andropogon virginicus L. Purple cudweed, heartwing sorrel, moss verbena, and sicklepod may represent new host records for cowpea curculio. Destruction of spring alternate hosts and overwintering hosts of cowpea curculio and crop rotation of cowpeas away from snapbeans may help to reduce cowpea curculio infestation in cowpea.El gorgojo del caupi, Chalcodermus aeneus (Boheman), es una plaga importante del caupi, Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walpers, en el sureste de los Estados Unidos. Este curculi6nido tambien se alimenta de otros cultivos fabaceos y de un numero de hospederos silvestres. Gorgojos adultos fueron obtenidos durante un muestreo de campo realizado en Alabama de 1992 a 1994 de 31 especies de plantas hospederas alternativas representando a 11 familias de plantas, y huevos y larvas del gorgojo fueron colectados en tres especies de plantas fabaceas de la subtribu Phaseolinae. Algunas de las plantas alternativas hospederas para los adultos del gorgojo utilizadas antes de la cosecha de la primavera del caupf incluyeron a Vicia sativa ssp. nigra (L.) Erhardt, Gnaphalium purpureum L., Rumex hastatulus L., Oenothera laciniata L., y a Verbena tenuisecta Briquet. En mayo y en junio, los gorgojos del caupi se repr...
