Cerambycidae is one of the largest families of Coleoptera, with approximately 38,000 species described. Knowledge of Cerambycidae fauna in Brazil has increased in the last 50 years, but some regions, such as the Brazilian semi-arid region, remain relatively unexplored. An updated checklist of Cerambycidae from that region, based on previously published works, checklists, and catalogs, and the study of 331 specimens of 72 species, 58 genera, 26 tribes, and three subfamilies deposited in the collection of the Zoology Museum of the Universidade Estadual de Feira de Santana is provided. This list has 633 species, 303 genera, 58 tribes, of four subfamilies of Cerambycidae from 75 municipalities in nine states in the Brazilian semi-arid region. A map illustrating the distribution of the Cerambycidae species in the semi-arid region is also provided. Four new species are described: Eburodacrys boteroi sp. nov. and Coccoderus costae sp. nov. (Cerambycinae); and Aerenicopsis joseferreirai sp. nov. and Pseudomecas mourai sp. nov. (Lamiinae). The new species are included in an identification key to the respective genus. Furthermore, Antodice kyra Martins & Galileo, 1998 is new record from the Bahia State; Chevrolatella tripunctata (Chevrolat, 1862) is a new record to Brazilian semi-arid region; Colobothea rubroornata Zajciw, 1962 is a new record from Bahia State and Brazilian semi-arid region, and Odontocera bilobata Zajciw, 1965 is a new record from the Bahia State and Brazilian semi-arid region. It is evident that some regions in the Brazilian semi-arid region are poorly sampled and new inventory studies must be carried out.

Monophyly: Characters in support of the monophyly of the genus are as follows: oval shape of the dorsal border bounded by the postoccipital margin and opistosomal suture limited by the postmentum (12-2); flagellomeres located mediobasally in flagellomeres (28-0); cercus acuminated (60-1). Diagnosis: Distance between antennal sockets short, less than one-third the width of the antennal socket. Dorsal border bounded by the postoccipital margin and oval or subtriangular opistosomal suture. Palpus with four or three segments; when four, the first and second with a small proximal area fused. Antennae with the first flagellomere approximately the same length as the second flagellomere; all flagellomeres connected asymmetrically in most species. Ascoids long, showing approximately the same length as or being longer than the flagellomere, and located near the flagellomere base. Scutum with alveoli concentrated on the margins and absent in the central region. In all species, male terminalia bearing a projection at the apex of the cercus with a more accuminate shape. Description: Male. Head subcircular and eyes without an ocular bridge. Distance between antennal sockets short, less than one-third of the antennal socket width. Supraocular bristles in a single row. Two or three supracervical bristles, and the dorsal border bounded by the postoccipital margin and an opistosomal suture, oval or piriform. Labella globose and irregular with a swollen apex or elongated with an acuminate apex. Palpus with three or four segments; when with four, the first two segments are completely or partly fused. Scape cylindrical, approximately the same size as the spherical or cylindrical pedicel. The first flagellomere is nearly as long as the second flagellomere, with a pyriform or fusiform shape, and the insertion point between them is asymmetrical. Ascoids longer or of the same length as the flagellomere, arranged in an S or C shape and positioned mediobasally. Scutum with alveoli concentrated at the margins and absent in the central region, except in T. nuda and T. incrustabilis. Anepimeron with alveoli, except in T. nuda, T. piricornis, T. urbica and T. kostovi. Wing with the radial fork closer to the apex than the apex of CuA 2, with some variation. Alveoli in tergites II – VI randomly distributed or concentrated in the apical region. Owing to the wide variations in male genitalia at a specific level, it is not possible to identify many patterns for the genus. There is great variation in the shapes of the epandrium, cercus and gonostylus. Species with a projection at the apex of the cercus are usually acuminated. The gonostylus is little or highly sclerotized, and most species have an arm in the gonocoxite, which can vary in number, direction and shape. The hypandrium and gonocoxite are fused. Female: The head, antenna and wing are similar to those in males. Spermathecal ducts are sclerotized and annulated. Females of most species belonging to this genus have not been described, and given their diversity and lack of studies, the characteristics of female genitalia are not listed here for the present genus. Distribution: Worlwide distribution, with records in Australia, Austria, Belgium, Brazil, Bulgaria, Caribbean, China, Colombia, Costa Rica, Czech Republic, Denmark, Dominican Republic, England, France, Germany, Greece, Hawaii, Hungary, Indonesia, Jamaica, Japan, Madagascar, Malaya, Mexico, Micronesia, The Netherlands, Norway, New Guinea, New Zealand, Panama, Peru, Philippines, Poland, Puerto Rico, Romania, Russia, Slovakia, Spain, Suriname, Sweden, the USA and Venezuela. Comments: T h e r e d u c t i o n o f s e g m e n t s i n the maxillary palp of Trichomyia is well illustrated in phylogeny. In Phlebotominae and Bruchomyiinae, the maxillary palp shows five segments. Reduction to four segments is observed in species of Psychodinae and Sycoracinae and in some species of Trichomyiinae, and reduction to three segments is observed only in species of Trichomyiinae (Bravo, 2000). Based on Psychodinae fossils, Azar & Nel (2003) proposed that there is a gradation between species from five to four palp segments, because they observed a weak groove in the segments of the palp, which probably resulted from the fusion of the two segments. The phylogeny of Trichomyiinae proposed here (Fig. 8) indicates sequential reduction from four to three segments in Trichomyia. First, segments one and two of the maxillary palp were partly fused, with the first segment overlapping the second one (17-1). Further reduction to three segments occurred posteriorly (16-0)., Published as part of Araújo, Maíra Xavier, Bravo, Freddy & Carvalho, Claudio José Barros De, 2023, First phylogeny of Trichomyia (Diptera: Psychodidae: Trichomyiinae) based on morphological data of adults, pp. 871-900 in Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society 198 (3) on pages 882-890, DOI: 10.1093/zoolinnean/zlad004, http://zenodo.org/record/8147516, {"references":["Curtis J. 1839.

Aedeagus convergent, with apex unfused. Hypandrium and gonocoxite fused, and post-hypandrial plate expanded and bifurcated. Female: Females of most species of the genus have been described and present similar characteristics to one another, mainly in terms of the genitalia; females were not analysed in the present work. For more information, see Duckhouse (1972, 1980). Distribution: Australia, New Zealand (Wellington), South Africa and southern South America (Argentina, Chile). Comments: Following the proposition of Trichomyia species Group A by Duckhouse (1965), all discussions were permeated by which species were included in this group and whether it is monophyletic. Large Trichomyia species from southern South America, South Africa and Australia were included in Group A, which was later formalized by Duckhouse (1985) as subgenus Trichomyia (Gondwanotrichomyia) and proposed as genus Gondwanotrichomyia. The inclusion of T. urbica in Group A (Duckhouse, 1965; Omelková & JeŽek, 2012) was not corroborated in this analysis (Fig. 8). Meanwhile, Omelková & JeŽek (2012) included T. carlestolrai from Spain and the Neotropical species of the subgenus Opisthotrichomyia in Group A; however, the authors do not provide arguments for the latter suggestion, which is not supported by the results of our cladogram (Fig. 8). Duckhouse (1980) did not include G. capsulata in Gondwanotrichomyia, although it should have been included based on the presence of all diagnostic characters, except one: G. capsulata lacks the median projection that interconnects the cerci (character 56-1), which can be considered as secondary loss., Published as part of Araújo, Maíra Xavier, Bravo, Freddy & Carvalho, Claudio José Barros De, 2023, First phylogeny of Trichomyia (Diptera: Psychodidae: Trichomyiinae) based on morphological data of adults, pp. 871-900 in Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society 198 (3) on pages 879-881, DOI: 10.1093/zoolinnean/zlad004, http://zenodo.org/record/8147516, {"references":["Duckhouse DA. 1985.

TRICHOMYIA (BRACHIOTRICHOMYIA) BRAVO & ARAÚJO, 2013 Brachiotrichomyia Bravo & Araújo, 2013: 330. Type species: Trichomyia inermis Barretto, 1954, by original designation. Species included: Trichomyia armata Barretto, 1954; Trichomyia braziliensis Satchell, 1956; Trichomyia inermis Barretto, 1954; Trichomyia plumata Araújo & Bravo, 2013; Trichomyia pseudodactylis Quate, 1996; Trichomyia quatei Bravo, 2001; and Trichomyia risaraldensis Bejarano, 2009. Comments: Two synapomorphies allowed the recovery of Brachiotrichomyia: the basal starting point of the bifurcation of the aedeagus, close to the ejaculatory ducts (82-0), and feathered setae of the arm of gonocoxite. This subgenus was proposed by Bravo & Araújo (2013) to include some species, such as Opisthotrichomyia and Syntrichomyia, that present four segments on the palpus, with the first two partly fused. These species have gonocoxites projected dorsally and fused basally and an elongated arm with bristles lined on the inner margin. The gonostylus is C-shaped, but can be reduced in some species. The aedeagus is curved and fused at the apex, with an ovoid appearance. It includes species from Costa Rica, Colombia, Brazil and Panama. Other characteristics recovered in the phylogeny include: a long distance from the clypeus to the antennal socket (longer than or as long as the clypeus); wing with the base of M 2 with microtrichia; and male genitalia bearing hypoproct with an acuminated apex., Published as part of Araújo, Maíra Xavier, Bravo, Freddy & Carvalho, Claudio José Barros De, 2023, First phylogeny of Trichomyia (Diptera: Psychodidae: Trichomyiinae) based on morphological data of adults, pp. 871-900 in Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society 198 (3) on page 892, DOI: 10.1093/zoolinnean/zlad004, http://zenodo.org/record/8147516, {"references":["Araujo MX, Bravo F. 2013.

TRICHOMYIA PEDICILLATA SATCHELL, 1956 Trichomyia pedicillata Satchell, 1956: 153–154, fig. 6A–G. Material examined: Two male (BMNH) Panama, Canal Zone, Barro Colorado Island, 9°9ʹN, 79°51ʹW, 7 – 14 April 1993, J. Pickering leg. Comments: The description of the species does not mention the presence of the key diagnostic characteristic of the subgenus: bristles on tergite VII. However, Alexander et al. (2001) associated this characteristic with the species, albeit without a formal description of the structure or material analysed. Therefore, Araújo & Bravo (2012) did not include it in Septemtrichomyia until further observations were made. In material found at the Natural History Museum, London, and identified by Quate in 1998, tergite VII had highly sclerotized lateral lobes and a scar indicating the presence of elongated bristles. According to these observations, T. pedicillata must be included in Septemtrichomyia.
