Abstract

The subfamily Cerambycinae includes, at present 716 genera and 3889 species in the Neotropical region (Monné & Bezark, 2009). Trachyderini Dupont, 1836, one of the largest tribes of Cerambycinae, is widely distributed in the Americas, especially in the Neotropics where 441 species belonging to 133 genera are recorded, about 11% of the diversity of the subfamily (Monné & Bezark, 2009; Eya, 2010).
