Cladistics of the Naupactus leucoloma species group, Atrichonotus, and Eurymetopus (Coleoptera: Curcullonidae)
The Naupactus leucoloma species group, Atrichonotus Buchanan (= Floresianellus Lanteri and Floresianus Hustache), and Eurymetopus Schoenherr, form a clade within the Puntomorus-Naupactus complex (Naupactini). This clade includes 19 species native to northern and central Argentina, Uruguay, Bolivia,...

| Sumario: | The Naupactus leucoloma species group, Atrichonotus Buchanan (= Floresianellus Lanteri and Floresianus Hustache), and Eurymetopus Schoenherr, form a clade within the Puntomorus-Naupactus complex (Naupactini). This clade includes 19 species native to northern and central Argentina, Uruguay, Bolivia, Paraguay, central Chile, and southern Brazil. Based on the single cladogram obtained, species assigned to the Naupactus leucoloma species group and Atrichonotus form two successive grades relative to Eurymetopus. The cladistic sequence is as follows: Naupactus albolateralis Hustache, N.tucumanensis Hustache, N. leucoloma Boheman plus N. minor (Buchanan), N. peregrinus (Buchanan), Atrichonotus pacificusKuschel, A. taeniatulus (Berg) plus A. obscurus (Hustache), A. marginatus (Hustache), A. convexifrons (Hustache), A. sordidus (Hustache), A. whiteheadi Lanteri new species, Eurymetopus oblongus (Hustache), E. globosus Lanteri, E.fallax Boheman, E. birabeniKuschel, E. vittatus Kuschel, E. bucki Kuschel, and E. unicolor (Hustache). This paper includes a discussion on the cladogram obtained and its implications for the natural classification of the group, a generic key, keys for species of Atrichonotus and Eurymetopus, a description of the new species A. whiteheadi, and a redescription of E. unicolor |
