Abstract

"The genus Rhodobaenus is redescribed and the 29 species of South America are revised. The 29 species include five of the 15 formerly considered as the nawradii group which is here broken up and incorporated with the other species. Ten of the 29 species occur also in Central America or Mexico. Rhodobaenus lebasii (Gyllenhal) is resurrected as a valid species with three new synonyms: femoralis Chevrolat, vittatipennis, and immaculatus of Champion. Additional new synonymy is recorded: ruficollis (Hustache) of aduncus (Erichson); goyaensis (Hustache) of rufirostris (Hustache); cordifer Voss of schnusei Günther; saucius (Gyllenhal) and implicatus, crucicollis, miniatus, nigricornis, bipunctatus, and quinquemaculatus of Chevrolat of suturalis (Gyllenhal). Seven new species are described: R. bivittatus, Bolivia; curvus, Colombia; nivosus, Venezuela; pullus and riparius, Ecuador; quadrus, Peru; rhinopilus, Paraguay. Lectotypes are designated for several species of Champion and Günther"--P. 5.
