from Argentina and Bolivia

OSVALDO R. DI IORIO

Abstract - Four species of Lissonotini had been known for the Argentine fauna of Cerambycidae: Lissonotus andalgalensis Bruch, 1908, L. flabellicornis (Germar, 1824), L. rugosus Fuchs, 1958 and L. spadiceus Dalman, 1823. Lissonotus unifasciatus Gory, 1843, known from Brazil and possibly Bolivia, is a new record for Argentina. Lissonotus flavocinctus flavocinctus Dupont, 1838 (= Lissonotus bridarolli Bosq, 1948 in litteris), only known from northern South America, is a new record for Bolivia. Lectotype and Paralectotype designations, host plants, dates of emergence, developmental times, geographic distribution and a gynandromorph of Lissonotus andalgalensis are reported. Lissonomimus auratopilosus new species, first record of this genus in Argentina, is described and illustrated. A key for the treated genera and species is provided.
