Agra arboreal beetles of Neotropical forests: pusilla group and piranha group systematics and notes on their ways of life (Coleoptera Carabidae Lebiini Agrina)

摘要

Revisions of two new species groups of the genus Agra Fabricius are presented with the following species described as new: pusilla group - Agra cruciaria >sp. n. (Brazil), Agra grace >sp. n. (Ecuador,Perú), Agra max >sp. n. (Brazil), Agra minasianus >sp. n. (Brazil),Agra notpusilla >sp. n. (Brazil), Agra pseudopusilla >sp. n. (Brazil); piranha group - Agra ce >sp. n. (Perú), Agra risseri >sp. n. (Bolivia,Brazil), Agra maia >sp. n. (Bolivia), Agra piranha >sp. n. (Ecuador); Agra tiputini >sp. n. (Ecuador). Species of these two groups have adults that are the smallest in the entire genus, although this does not indicate they are closely related based on other attributes. All species are Amazonian in distribution.
