Caenocentron

Genus Caenocentron (Schmid 1982) Previously, the genus Cnodocentron was divided into two subgenera: Cnodocentron (Oriental in distribution) and Caenocentron (Neotropical and Nearctic in distribution). However, Vilarino et al. (2021) demonstrated separate evolutionary histories for the two subgenera, and elevated each to the genus level. Eight of the nine species now constituting Caenocentron are endemic to the Neotropics (Vilarino et al. 2021). Two species were previously known from Panama. Herein, we record two additional species as new to Panama.
