Cacostola timtim, a new species of longhorn beetle (Coleoptera, Cerambycidae) from the seasonally dry tropical forest of Yucatán, Mexico

A new species of Cacostola Fairmaire & Germain, 1860 (Lamiinae, Onciderini) is described and illustrated. Specimens were found in a remnant patch of altered seasonally dry tropical forest in the suburbs of Mrida, Yucatn, Mexico. A full description of male holotype and variations of allotype and the other paratypes are provided. Photos of dorsal, ventral, lateral, and frontal habitus of the holotype and allotype, as well as dorsal habitus of five male paratypes, are included to illustrate the species. Field photographs of male and female specimens are also included.
