“…Currently, the only publications are those by Pardo-Locarno et al (2012) in Caribbean Colombia and some nationwide surveys and taxonomic revisions twhich include some records for this department (Restrepo-Giraldo et al 2003, Suárez and Amat-García 2007, Gasca-Álvarez and Amat-García 2010, Sanabria-García et al 2012, López-García et al 2015. For the Rutelinae, we provide the second record from Colombia of Xenopelidnota anomala, which was previously identified from the Atlántico Department (García-Atencia and Martínez-Hernández 2015); this confirms the idea proposed by García-Atencia and Martínez-Hernández (2015) concerning the presence and distribution of this species in dry forest fragments of Caribbean Colombia. We also recorded the presence of Megasoma elephas, also known as elephant beetle.…”

We report an inventory of the superfamily Scarabaeoidea present at the campus of the University of Sucre, Sincelejo, Colombia. Specimens were captured between the months of May and June 2016. A total of 510 specimens were collected belonging to 3 families, 8 subfamilies, 27 genera, and 34 species. The subfamilies presenting the greatest diversity were Scarabaeinae and Dynastinae. For the first time the following 8 species were recorded for Sucre Department: Anomala valida Burmeister, 1844, Liogenys quadridens (Fabricius, 1798), Megasoma elephas (Fabricius, 1775), Omorgus suberosus (Fabricius, 1775), Phileurus didymus (Linnaeus, 1758), Phileurus valgus (Olivier, 1789), Phyllophaga menetriesi (Blanchard, 1850), and Xenopelidnota anomala (Burmeister, 1844). We highlight the importance of green zones within urban areas as possible faunistic refugia for different taxonomic groups, especially for the beetles of the superfamily Scarabaeoidea.

The pelidnotine scarabs (Scarabaeidae: Rutelinae: Rutelini) are a speciose, paraphyletic assemblage of beetles that includes spectacular metallic species (“jewel scarabs”) as well as species that are ecologically important as herbivores, pollinators, and bioindicators. These beetles suffer from a complicated nomenclatural history, due primarily to 20th century taxonomic and nomenclatural errors. We review the taxonomic history of the pelidnotine scarabs, present a provisional key to genera with overviews of all genera, and synthesize a catalog of all taxa with synonyms, distributional data, type specimen information, and 107 images of exemplar species. As a result of our research, the pelidnotine leaf chafers (a paraphyletic group) include 27 (26 extant and 1 extinct) genera and 420 valid species and subspecies (419 extant and 1 extinct). Our research makes biodiversity research on this group tractable and accessible, thus setting the stage for future studies that address evolutionary and ecological trends. Based on our research, 1 new species is described, 1 new generic synonym and 12 new species synonyms are proposed, 11 new lectotypes and 1 new neotype are designated, many new or revised nomenclatural combinations, and many unavailable names are presented. The following taxonomic changes are made:New generic synonym: The genus Heteropelidnota Ohaus, 1912 is a new junior synonym of Pelidnota MacLeay, 1819.New species synonyms: Plusiotis adelaida pavonacea Casey, 1915 is a syn. n. of Chrysina adelaida (Hope, 1841); Odontognathus gounellei Ohaus, 1908 is a revised synonym of Pelidnota ebenina (Blanchard, 1842); Pelidnota francoisgenieri Moore & Jameson, 2013 is a syn. n. of Pelidnota punctata (Linnaeus, 1758); Pelidnota genieri Soula, 2009 is a syn. n. of Pelidnota punctata (Linnaeus, 1758); Pelidnota lutea (Olivier, 1758) is a revised synonym of Pelidnota punctata (Linnaeus, 1758); Pelidnota (Pelidnota) texensis Casey, 1915 is a revised synonym of Pelidnota punctata (Linnaeus, 1758); Pelidnota (Strigidia) zikani (Ohaus, 1922) is a revised synonym of Pelidnota tibialis tibialis Burmeister, 1844; Pelidnota ludovici Ohaus, 1905 is a syn. n. of Pelidnota burmeisteri tricolor Nonfried, 1894; Rutela fulvipennis Germar, 1824 is syn. n. of Pelidnota cuprea (Germar, 1824); Pelidnota pulchella blanda Burmeister, 1844 is a syn. n. of Pelidnota pulchella pulchella (Kirby, 1819); Pelidnota pulchella scapularis Burmeister, 1844 is a syn. n. of Pelidnota pulchella pulchella (Kirby, 1819); Pelidnota xanthogramma Perty, 1830 is a syn. n. of Pelidnota pulchella pulchella (Kirby, 1819).New or revised statuses: Pelidnota fabricelavalettei Soula, 2009, revised status, is considered a species; Pelidnota rioensis Soula, 2009, stat. n., is considered a species; Pelidnota semiaurata semiaurata Burmeister, 1844, stat. rev., is considered a subspecies.New or comb. rev. and revised status: Plusiotis guaymi Curoe, 2001 is formally transferred to the genus Chrysina (C. guaymi (Curoe, 2001), comb. n.); Plusiotis transvolcanica Morón & Nogueir...

“…En los bosques secos la mayor riqueza de especies se registró durante la época de lluvia (García-Atencia et al, 2015), las metodologías casi siempre están diseñadas para colectar insectos en estado adulto, para facilitar su identificación y aun así es limitada, debido a la gran diversidad de esta clase. El resto del año, durante el largo periodo de sequía entre ocho y nueve meses, se desarrolla el estado inmaduro o larval.…”

La clase Insecta comprende más del 50% de todos los organismos vivos incluyendo plantas y otros animales terrestres. Su estudio es necesario, más aún en áreas protegidas como la Reserva Ecológica Arenillas, donde uno de los mayores problemas es la fragmentación de sus ecosistemas. Se realizó un inventario preliminar de la clase Insecta, se analizó su composición taxonómica y los gremios tróficos. Se aplicaron métodos selectivos de colecta de insectos con cebos. Se reportan 122 especies, 93 géneros, 40 familias y 11 órdenes en dos divisiones: Exopterygota y Endopterygota que con el 75% fue la más diversa. A nivel de orden Lepidoptera con 72 especies representan el 59 %. Los gremios tróficos fitófagos, nectarívoros y detritívoros representan el 58% en estado adulto y 67% en estado inmaduro, versus 11% en los gremios predador y parasitoide.
