Increasing the knowledge of Ecuador’s biodiversity: new species and new records in Cerambycinae and Lamiinae (Coleoptera, Cerambycidae)
Three new species and one new genus are described from Ecuador: Hemilissa striatothorax sp. nov. (Cerambycinae, Piezocerini); Rosalba luteomaculata sp. nov. (Lamiinae, Apomecynini); and Albasor formicosus gen. nov., sp. nov. (Lamiinae, Apomecynini). Hammatoderus thoracicus (White, 1858) (Lamiinae, Lamiini) is recorded from Ecuador for the first time. The female of Hesychotypa punctata Martins, 1979 is illustrated for the first time and a new Ecuadorian province record is reported. Additionally, notes on Rosalba Thomson, 1864 and Paraesylacris Breuning, 1940 are provided.
