Se describen 36 especies nuevas de Photinus y 1 de Paraphotinus . Las nuevas especies proceden de la Ciudad de Mexico (2), Estado de Mexico (15), Hidalgo (6), Morelos (2), Puebla (11) y Tlaxcala (1). Se actualiza la informacion de 64 especies del centro de Mexico de los generos Aorphalus Zaragoza-Caballero y Gutierrez-Carranza, Aspisoma Laporte, Aspisomoides Zaragoza-Caballero, Bicellonycha Motschulsky, Cratomorphus Motschulsky, Lucidota Laporte, Paraphotinus Zaragoza-Caballero nov. est., Phaenolis Gorham, Photinus Laporte, Photuris Dejean, Pleotomus LeConte, Pyractomena Melsheimer, Pyropyga LeConte y Pyropygodes Zaragoza-Caballero. Se presenta una clave para identificar tribus, generos y especies de esta region, asi como una diagnosis para el reconocimiento de los generos y especies. Las diagnosis genericas se complementan con la mencion de la especie tipo, quien la designo, literatura donde se ha hecho mencion del genero y las especies que se han registrado en los estados mencionados, asi como su distribucion en el pais. Ademas, se proponen los siguientes cambios nomenclaturales: nuevos estatus: Paraphotinus aulophallus (Zaragoza-Caballero y Gutierrez-Carranza, 2018b), P. furcatus (Zaragoza-Caballero, 2000a), P. tlapacoyaensis (Zaragoza-Caballero, 1996) y P. tuxtlaensis (Zaragoza-Caballero, 1995a); nueva combinacion: Photinus palaciosi comb. nov. = Macrolampis palaciosi Zaragoza-Caballero, 2015; y combinaciones restauradas: Photinus lunicollis Gorham, 1880 y Photinus producta Gorham 1881.

Data from the literature and from specimens preserved at the Colección Nacional de Insectos (CNIN) Instituto de Biología, UNAM were used to compile a checklist of the fauna of Coleoptera of the state of Morelos, México. A sum of 70 families, 167 subfamilies, 361 tribes, 1,022 genera, and 2,606 species are recorded; from this 24 species are new records for Morelos. The State of Morelos ranks fourth in Coleoptera species richness for Mexico, following Veracruz (3,176 spp.), Oaxaca (2,148 spp.) and Chiapas (1,734 spp.). The checklist presented here provides a summary that can serve as a basis for future progress in the knowledge of Mexican Coleoptera.

ResumenSe presenta un inventario de especies de Elateridae (Insecta: Coleoptera: Elateroidea) en la Estación de Biología Chamela, Jalisco, México. La identificación se realizó con base en evidencia morfológica y molecular (ADN mitocondrial del gen citocromo oxidasa subunidad I [COI]). El trabajo de campo se realizó entre 2009 y 2012. Se recolectaron 544 individuos pertenecientes a 46 especies, 25 géneros, 7 subfamilias y 11 tribus; se obtuvieron 106 secuencias de varias de las morfoespecies discriminadas. Treinta y ocho especies fueron discriminadas con información molecular, y se encontraron 10 casos de discordancia entre evidencia molecular y morfológica. La subfamilia Elaterinae presentó la mayor riqueza de especies (18 spp.), seguida de Agrypninae (16 spp.) y Cardiophorinae (6 spp.). Las subfamilias con menor número de especies fueron Cebrioninae (2 spp.), Lissominae (2 spp.), Semiotinae (1 sp.) y Thylacosterninae (1 sp.). Los géneros con mayor riqueza de especies fueron Conoderus (6 spp.), Megapenthes (5 spp.) y Esthesopus (4 spp.). Se obtuvieron 27 nuevos registros de especies para Jalisco, 5 nuevos registros para México y 7 especies potencialmente nuevas para la ciencia. Este estudio resalta la importancia de emplear diferentes fuentes de caracteres para obtener un mejor conocimiento de la riqueza de especies en estudios faunísticos, especialmente en grupos altamente diversos.AbstractA species inventory of Elateridae (Insecta: Coleoptera: Elateroidea) from the Estación de Biología Chamela, Jalisco, Mexico, is presented. The identification was made based on morphological and molecular evidence (mtDNA gene cytochrome oxidase subunit I (COI)).. Fieldwork was carried out between 2009 and 2012. We obtained 544 individuals belonging to 46 species, 25 genera, 7 subfamilies and 11 tribes, and 106 sequences of several discriminated morphospecies were obtained. Thirty eight species were discriminated with molecular information, finding 10 cases of discordance between molecular and morphological evidence. The subfamily Elaterinae had the highest species richness (18 spp.), followed by Agrypninae (16 spp.) and Cardiophorinae (6 spp.). The subfamilies with lowest number of species were Cebrioninae (2 spp.), Lissominae (2 spp.), Semiotinae (1 sp.) and Thylacosterninae (1 sp.). The genera with the highest number of species were Conoderus (6 spp.), Megaphenthes (5 spp.) and Esthesopus (4 spp. each). Twenty-seven of the species collected represent new records for Jalisco, 5 for Mexico, and 7 more are potentially new to science. This study highlights the importance of employing different character sources to have a better knowledge about the species richness in faunistic studies, especially in groups with high number of species.

Entre los organismos se establecen diferentes interacciones. En el caso de los coleopteros y pseudoescorpiones es la foresia, que consiste en el transporte del segundo por el primero. En este trabajo se describe la relacion entre Lustrochernes grossus y Parachelifer scabriculus con el elaterido Chalcolepidius approximatus . Se revisaron 87 ejemplares de C. approximatus de las colecciones del Museo de Zoologia Alfonso L. Herrera de la Facultad de Ciencias y de la Coleccion Nacional de Insectos, Instituto de Biologia, ambas de la Universidad Nacional Autonomade Mexico. Los aracnidos fueron procesados mediante la tecnica de Hoff con modificaciones de Wirth y Marston. En 7 coleopteros se obtuvieron 18 pseudoescorpiones debajo de los elitros, 10 en L. grossus de Morelos, Jalisco y Guerrero, y 8 en P. scabriculus de Morelos unicamente. La presencia de los pseudoescorpiones en los elateridos se debe a que ambos habitan debajo de la corteza de los arboles y probablemente aqui establecieron la relacion. Este es el primer registro de P. scabriculus asociado con elateridos mexicanos y el primero de L. grossus con C. approximatus en Morelos y Guerrero.

Coleoptera ,Species Specificity ,Animals ,Phylogeny - Abstract
A morphology-based phylogenetic analysis of the family Phengodidae (Coleoptera) is given. Thirty-six terminals, six genera and 60 morphological characters are included. To test the monophyly of phengodid subfamilies the terminals that belong to superfamily Elateroidea Drilocephalus Pic (Dascillidae), Pterotus LeConte (incertae sedis), Vesperelater Costa (Elateridae), Photinus Laporte (Lampyridae), Pseudotelegeusis Wittmer and Telegeusis Horn (Telegeusidae) are used as outgroups, with the remaining 30 terminals corresponding to 26 specific and four generic levels. The matrix was analyzed under a parsimony criterion under a heuristic search performed in TNT v. 2.0. One parsimonious tree was obtained. In this study two principal groups are recognized in the family Phengodidae. This study suggests for the first time a close relationship between the Telegeusidae and the subfamily Penicillophorinae.
