ABSTRACT
The descriptions of two species of Lamiinae, Lepturges (Lepturges) batesi sp. nov. (Acanthocinini) and Onocephala chicomendes sp. nov. (Onocephalini) and an addendum of Cerambycinae and Lamiinae to the list of species of Cerambycidae in the Itatiaia National Park are presented. The data are based on fieldwork conducted over the last six years. Eighteen species of Cerambycinae and 21 of Lamiinae are recorded, with a total of 39 new distribution records.

A taxonomic revision based on the study of the external morphology and the terminalia of Phygopoda Thomson, 1864 and Pseudophygopoda Tavakilian & Peñaherrera-Leiva, 2007 is presented. The genera and their species are redescribed. Five synonymies are proposed: Panamapoda Clarke, 2014 and Paraphygopoda Clarke, 2014 = Pseudophygopoda Tavakilian & Peñaherrera-Leiva, 2007; Paraphygopoda viridimicans (Fisher, 1952); Paraphygopoda nappae Clarke, 2014; and Paraphygopoda longipennis (Zajciw, 1963) = Pseudophygopoda albitarsis (Klug, 1825). The genus Phygopoda is composed of five species: Phygopoda fugax Thomson, 1864; Phygopoda fulvitarsis Gounelle, 1911; Phygopoda ingae Peñaherrera-Leiva & Tavakilian, 2004; Phygopoda jacobi Fuchs, 1961; and Phygopoda nigritarsis Gounelle, 1911. Pseudophygopoda is now composed of three species: Pseudophygopoda subvestita (White, 1855), Pseudophygopoda panamensis (Giesbert, 1996) comb. nov., and Pseudophygopoda albitarsis (Klug, 1825) comb. nov. New geographical records are reported for six species. A key to the species of Phygopoda and Pseudophygopoda, photographs, plates of drawings, and maps of the geographical distribution of the species are provided.

The genus Trypanidius Blanchard, 1846 includes 15 species in the Neotropical Region, nine of which occur in South America. In this contribution, the genus and South American species are redescribed and Trypanidius mimicavus sp. nov. is described from Bolivia. New distributional data are given for T. andicola Blanchard, 1846; T. dimidiatus Thomson, 1860; and T. notatus (Fabricius, 1787). All species are illustrated and a key to all species is provided.

Host plants of Cerambycidae and Vesperidae (Coleoptera, Chrysomeloidea) from South America. This paper offers a contribution to the knowledge on host plants of Cerambycidae and Vesperidae (Coleoptera, Chrysomeloidea) from South America. A total of 211 species of longhorn beetles belonging to 111 genera, 49 tribes, five subfamilies and two families are presented with records of host plants. Data on 259 species of host plants distributed among 188 genera and 69 families are listed with the beetle species.
