Abstract

Four new species are described: Caribbomerus jaliscanus sp. nov. (Cerambycinae, Graciliini), from Mexico; Championa zarazagai sp. nov. and Championa chihuahuaensis sp. nov. (Cerambycinae, incertae sedis), both from Mexico; and Scopadus selkingi sp. nov. (Lamiinae, Acanthomerosternoplini), from Panama. We also propose keys for the following genera: Neocompsa Martins, 1965; Placoclytus Chemsak \& Linsley, 1974; Nyssicus Pascoe, 1859; Championa Bates, 1880, and Scopadus Pascoe, 1857. Additionally, the differences between Hypexilis Horn, 1885 and Caribbomerus Vitali, 2003 are provided, Caribbomerus howdeni (Napp \& Martins, 1984) is synonymized with Hypexilis pallida Horn, 1885, and new records are registered.
