Revision of the genus Harpasus Mulsant (Coleoptera, Coccinellidae, Chilocorini)

摘要

Harpasus Mulsant, 1850 was studied based on the morphology of the exoskeleton and genitalia. The type material of Harpasus aureus Almeida & Carvalho, 2006, H quadrifolium Gonzalez, Correa & Almeida, 2008 and a homotype of H. zonatus (Mulsant, 1850) were examined. The lectotype ofH. eversmanni (Mulsant, 1850) was designated and two new species were described, Harpasus unifasciatus sp. nov. (Teresópolis, RJ, Brazil) and Harpasus ferrugineus sp. nov. (Puerto Carreno, Vichada, Colombia). Herein a diagnosis for the genus and its seven species, identification key and information about biological aspects are presented.
