Abstract

"Stereocephalus, which occurs east of the Andes from Venezuela to northern Argentina, is transferred from one paederine subtribe, the Dolicaonina, to another, the Lathrobiina. Three new species, S. myrigeus, S. ruhus, and S. rinnanus, all from Brazil, are described. Stereocephalus seriatipennis Lynch is redescribed and S. dilaticeps Bernhauer is placed as a junior synonym of seriatipennis. A key and illustrations are provided. Stereocephalus seriatipennis and S. rinnanus are sister species and together with S. ruhus comprise the sister group of S. myrigeus"--P. [1].
