Paratypes in EBCC, CIUM and MNRJ as indicated. Diagnosis. Urgleptes martini sp. nov. is distinguished from all known Urgleptes species by the combination of the lateral band of dark brown pubescence extending from the humerus to the posterior third of the elytra, and the five elongated maculae of dark brown pubescence extending transversely from the base of the lateral band to almost the suture (united or separated laterally from each other). There are several species in Mexico and Central America that have a similar pubescent pattern on prothorax and elytra, such as Urgleptes cazieri, U. celtis, U. charillus (Bates, 1885), U. clerulus (Bates, 1881), U. dorotheae Gilmour, 1960, U. euprepes, U. fasciatus (Bates, 1881), and E. pareuprepes Gilmour, 1960. However, in all these species, between the end of the central third and the beginning of the posterior third, there is a continuous transverse band of dark brown pubescence, usually irregular and extending, obliquely or not, from the lateral margin to the suture or almost to the suture. In addition, all these species lack a well-defined continuous dark-brown lateral band from the humerus to almost the posterior third of the elytra. Of these species, U. martini sp. nov. is more similar to U. celtis. However, in addition to the differences in the pubescence pattern of the elytra mentioned above, U. celtis clearly has a narrower mesoventral process and the femora, especially meso- and metafemora, are more widened and slightly less pedunculate than in U. martini sp. nov. (See figures 12–15). Remarks. The size of the specimens of the type series ranges from 4.0 to 6.4 mm in length and 1.3 to 2.1 mm in width. The pubescent pattern is constant, although the dark-brown pubescent maculae on the elytra may be lighter and smaller in some specimens. The integument of most of the body can vary from light brown to dark brown, as can be seen in the images of the abdomen of the female and male in figures 10 and 11. Etymology. We dedicate this species to Martín Zurita, a young Mexican entomologist and great companion and friend of the first, third, and fourth authors, who unfortunately passed away recently. We honor his memory by doing what he loved so much., Published as part of Noguera, Felipe A., Monné, Miguel A., Toledo-Hernández, Víctor H. & Gutiérrez, Nayeli, 2023, New species of Hyperplatys Haldeman, 1847 and Urgleptes Dillon, 1956 (Coleoptera Cerambycidae) from Mexico, pp. 575-584 in Zootaxa 5284 (3) on pages 579-582, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5284.3.8, http://zenodo.org/record/7929751

After describing Phrynidius jonesi Gutiérrez, Toledo & Noguera, 2020 (Coleoptera, Cerambycidae, Lamiinae), the authors had the opportunity to study a conspecific individual of this species and recognize that the holotype had been erroneously determined as a male when in fact it was a female. Here, we rectify this error and provide morphological information for the identification of both sexes. Additionally, we record Phrynidius armatus Linsley, 1933 from Chiapas, Mexico. Finally, we document P. cristinae Gutiérrez et al. 2020 feeding on a fungus, which represents the first record for any species of the genus Phrynidius with this adult feeding habit.

ABDOMEN: Ventrites coarsely punctate, punctures slightly finer, sparser from ventrite 1 to 5, except almost smooth on posterior region; with minute, sparse, yellow and white setae, and a few short, decumbent, thick, white and yellow setae interspersed, except apex of ventrites 1 to 4 with fringe of short, thick, decumbent yellow setae. DIMENSIONS (mm): Total length, 6.30; prothoracic length, 1.90; anterior prothoracic width, 1.35; posterior prothoracic width, 1.45; maximum prothoracic width, 1.65; humeral width, 2.00; elytral length, 3.95. TYPE MATERIAL: Holotype male from GUATEMALA, Izabal: Morales, Finca la Firmeza, Sierra de Caral, FUNDAECO, 600 m, 15.407148, -88.696255, 27-28.V.2019, Skillman, Wappes, and Monzón leg. (FSCA, formerly FWSC). ETYMOLOGY: The new species is dedicated to Frederick W. Skillman, Jr. (FWSC). REMARKS: Morrisia skillmani, sp. nov., differs from M. pulchra Santos-Silva et al., 2019, and M. squamosa (Chemsak and Noguera, 1993) by the lower eye lobes with 10 rows of ommatidia (fig. 3C). In M. pulchra the lower eye lobes have five rows of ommatidia (fig. 3B), and M. squamosa seven (fig. 3A). Furthermore, the elytra (fig. 3I) and pronotum are more coarsely punctate than in M. pulchra and M. squamosa (fig. 3G–H). This is the first record of the genus in Guatemala (fig. 2).

This species differs from N. pallidulus in coloration, body size, shape of the last abdominal sternite and male genitalia. Individuals of N. wappesi are all black with elytra greenish, usually smaller, with the last sternite uniformly convex, sides curved and apical margin emarginate (fig. 25) and parameres strongly sclerotized (dark color), with the intern margin curved inward and apices slightly wider (figs. 14–15). In N. pallidulus, individuals are usually bicolored (orange and black), usually larger in size, with the last sternite depressed apically, sides and apical margin straight. From congeners, this species is easily separated by the greenish-black elytra; last sternite with sides curved, apical margin emarginate, and parameres strongly sclerotized (dark color), with the internal margin curved inward and apices slightly wider. Variation. The total length varies in males and females from 7–9 mm. Length and abundance of setae varies; in some specimens the pronotal disk and elytra bear abundant, long erect setae, and in others the setae are scarce and short. Remarks. We studied material collected in Quintana Roo, Mexico which at first we considered could be conspecific with N. wappesi; however, some morphological differences seem to indicate that those individuals could belong to another species. We think it is necessary to have a greater number of individuals for study to confirm that, thus we decided not to include those specimens in our description. Etymology. We are pleased to dedicate this species to James E. Wappes, who collected most of the material used to describe the species and also for his contributions to the knowledge of the American cerambycids.

Nemognathomimus angelicae sp. nov. (Figs. 29–37, 38–40, 44–49) Holotype male. Length: 8 mm; width: 2 mm. Form small; narrow, elongated; integument shining black, pronotum orange with a longitudinal ovoid black macula to each side on apical half; with semi-erect setae clothing entire body. Head 1.1X longer than wide; front trapezoidal, widest distally, medially depressed to behind clypeus, from where it widens in posterior part, forming a “V”, each half slightly convex transversally, with little deep punctures that are contiguous-confluent, integument areolate-rugose in appearance; setae sparse; anterior part of clypeus trapezoidal, with apex narrower, posterior part subtriangular, microrugose, without punctures; genae 0.3X eye length, with apical margins rounded and notched in superior third; vertex longitudinally convex, with little deep punctures that are contiguous-confluent, with abundant suberect setae not obscuring the integument; neck abruptly constricted; eyes large, 1.4X longer than wide; antennae 0.8X as long as body, last segment reaching third abdominal segment, first four segments and half of fifth with shining integument and clothed with dark sub-erect setae, remaining segments with integument microrugose, opaque, clothed with shorter, subrecumbent setae; antennal formula (proportion) based on length of third segment: scape = 0.86, pedicel = 0.02, IV = 0.67, V = 0.62, VI = 0.67, VII = 0.62, VIII = 0.52, IX = 0.52, X = 0.48, XI = 0.52, segments 5–11 with transverse sensorial pits in apex. Pronotum campanuliform, base 2.3X wider than apex, sides slightly curved in apical half, hind angles acute, basal margin widely bisinuate, apical margin truncate, disc strongly convex, with small punctures contiguousconfluent; clothed with suberect setae; orange color with a longitudinal ovoid black macula on each side in apical half, contiguous in midline nearly to apex and becoming separated towards base. Scutellum triangular, black, with small punctures contiguous-confluent. Elytra 2.5X longer than wide; sides almost straight, slightly narrower near middle; apices acuminate; with punctures moderately deep on base and becoming finer toward apex, punctures separated by two or three times their diameter, each puncture bearing one suberect dark setae. Prosternum with very sparse setae; procoxal process laminar; procoxae contiguous; mesosternum finely densely punctate, punctures contiguous-confluent, pale setae moderately dense; width of mesocoxal process 0.8X width of mesocoxa; mesocoxa with an obtuse dentiform projection contiguous to trochanter; metasternum finely, densely punctate and densely clothed with pale suberect setae, except sides of metathoracic discrimen that are almost glabrous and impunctate. Legs densely clothed with pale suberect setae. Abdomen with basal segments finely, densely punctate and densely clothed with pale setae that become sparser toward last segment; last segment with apex truncate, angles rounded. Genitalia with tegmen in lateral view slightly curved; parameres parallel, strongly sclerotized (dark color), with internal margin slightly curved inward on basal half, external margin curved entirely, impunctate dorsally and with sparse moderately deep punctures ventrally, with long setae near apex and short setae ventrally; penis in lateral view curved, with apex acuminate. Allotype female. Length: 6.9 mm; width: 1.6 mm. Form similar to male except as follows: body slightly narrower; orange color except antennae, base and apex of femora, tibiae and tarsi black; head with corono-frontal suture pigmented with dark brown; pronotum narrower, base 2.1X wider than apex; elytra 2.8X longer than wide, with setae bright yellow; ventral region with shorter and sparse setae; last abdominal segment slightly angulate at middle of apex. Type material. Holotype male, allotype and one male paratype from: MEXICO, Hidalgo, 16 Km N Los Duraznos, 22-VII-1999, Alt. 1031 m, 20°50'38'' N, 99°12'38'' O, Col. A.M. Corona (EBCC). Six paratypes as follows: MEXICO, Hidalgo, Parc Nas. Los Marmoles [Parque Nacional Los Mármoles] 4.8 km N Trancas, 20° 49' 15'' N 99° 15' 28'' W 1905 m 20 July 1999, R.L.Westcott (2 males, 2 females, LGBC); Hidalgo vic. Jacala Km 2, road to San Nicolas, 1323 m 20° 59' 659'', 99° 10' 953'' 18 June 2004, R.L.Westcott (1 male, 1 female, LGBC). Diagnosis. This species is similar in form and coloration pattern to N. michelbacheri Chemsak & Giesbert, 1986, but it is distinguished from that species by the longer rostrum in males (Figs. 38, 41), pronotum narrower and curved in the apical half (Figs. 44, 47); elytra with sides almost straight (Figs. 40, 43); obtuse dentiform projection on the mesocoxa (Figs. 45, 48) and the last abdominal sternite with apex straight (Figs. 46, 49). From the rest of the species in the genus it may be easily separated by the obtuse dentiform projection on the mesocoxa. Remarks. One male paratype from Jacala, Hidalgo presents a different color pattern than the holotype. The pronotum lacks a well-defined black macula in the apical half, instead the integument is almost entirely black, except the base which is orange. In addition, the integument of elytra is black on both margins and the apex, and the rest is orange. Etymology. We dedicate this species to Angélica M. Corona, who collected part of the material used to describe the species and also for her contributions to the study of Mexican insects.
