New taxa of the genus Agrilus Curtis, 1825 and notes on the genus Agrilodia Obenberger, 1923 (Coleoptera: Buprestidae: Agrilinae: Agrilini: Agrilina)

Journal Title: REVISTA CHILENA DE ENTOMOLOGÍA - Year 2022, Vol 48, Issue 2

Abstract

Six new species and one new subspecies of the genus Agrilus Curtis are described and illustrated: A. arriagadai sp. nov. and A. golondrinus sp. nov. from Argentina; A. boto sp. nov., A. koikei sp. nov. and A. coronatus sp. nov. from Brazil; A. uyapi sp. nov. and A. suavis deerratus ssp. nov. from Bolivia. Additionally, the validity of the genus Agrilodia Obenberger was evaluated, recognizing a character that allows to differentiate this genus from other similar taxa. Based on the study of type and non-type specimens of Agrilodia, the following taxonomic changes are proposed: Agrilodia picta (Kerremans, 1897) comb. nov. as a senior synonym of Agrilodia leopardina Obenberger, 1943 syn. nov., and Agrilodia paraguayensis Obenberger, 1923 as a senior synonym of Agriloides giganteus Curletti and Pineda, 2019 syn. nov.
