An annotated checklist of the leaf beetles (Coleoptera, Chrysomelidae) from El Salvador, with additions from the Bechyné collection in the Royal Belgian Institute of Natural Sciences

“…Records from El Salvador are relatively rare (e.g., see Rodrigues and Mermudes 2016)). The country is undersampled for insects and this can be demonstrated by the fact that only two chrysomelid beetles are recorded from El Salvador in the ‘Biologia Centrali Americana’ series.…”
