A wealth of surprises in American Cerambycidae (Coleoptera): new taxa, geographical records, and taxonomic notes
Notes on Baryssinus chemsaki Monné, 1985, notes and a new country record for Polymitoleiopus euprepes (Bates, 1885), and a new country record for Aegomorphus bivitta (White, 1855) are provided. The species-group name in Aegomorphus bivitta is corrected. The male of Pseudosparna rileyi Heffern et al., 2024 is illustrated for the first time, and its sexual dimorphism is reported. A male of Eupogonius apicicornis Bates, 1885 is illustrated. Three new species and a new genus are described: Nesozineus vandenberghei sp. nov. (Acanthoderini), from Honduras; Adetus raberi sp. nov. (Apomecynini), from Panama; and Thambos uyuca, gen nov., sp. nov. (Parmenini), from Honduras. An updated key to American genera of Parmenini is provided.
