Abstract

"The 69 species of Rhodobaenus in North America are revised and lectotypes are designated for many of Champion's species. Three species (aterrimus, mundus, and octocostatus of Champion) are transferred from Sphenophorus to Rhodobaenus. Eight new synonyms are recorded: unidentatus Champion of guttatus (Fahraeus); dentifer Champion of incertus (Champion); maculipes Champion of cinctus (Gyllenhal); niger Champion of pulchellus (Gyllenhal); triangularis Champion of quinquepunctatus (Say); elegans, corniculatus of Chevrolat, and graphicus Champion, all of auctus Chevrolat. Five taxa listed in the catalogues as varieties of tredecimpunctatus (Illiger) are considered valid species: auctus Chevrolat, nigripennis Champion, lebasii (Gyllenhal), quinquepunctatus (Say), and thoracicus (Gyllenhal). Seven new species are described: bellus and melas, Costa Rica; buchanani, inopinatus, latens, mas, and quintas, Mexico. Additional locality records for previously described species are given"--P. 121.
