According to Bates (1885) (translated): “Black, shiny, almost glabrous; elytra with eburneous semiband medially; frons short and wide, irregularly reticulate-punctate; prothorax ovate-elongate, strongly narrowed and depressed toward base, not depressed anteriorly, pronotum rugose-punctate (wrinkles short, interrupted by punctures); elytra alveolate-punctate on anterior half, smooth on posterior half with silvery-silky macula near suture, centrobasal crest obtuse, slightly elevated; antennomere III with long spine, with apex slightly thickened; antennomere IV without spine.” Giesbert and Chemsak (1997) redescribed and illustrated E. cribellatus. However, their redescription and illustration (Fig. 16) do not agree with the holotype (see photographs on Bezark 2022a) and specimens examined by us. Information by Giesbert and Chemsak (1997), not agreeing with the holotype and specimens examined, between parentheses: body proportionally stouter (slender); maximum width of the prothorax on middle (after middle); and elytra with somewhat narrow and distinctly oblique densely punctate area after eburneous band (very wide and not oblique).</p> <p>Currently, the species is known from Costa Rica and Panama (Monné 2022a; Tavakilian and Chevillotte 2022).</p> <p>Material examined.

B. Baldwin leg. (TAMU, formerly DHCO).</p> <p>Etymology. The new species is dedicated to Brian Baldwin, friend of the first author and collector of the holotype.</p> <p>Remarks. Pentanodes baldwini new species is similar to P. xanthocollis (Chemsak, 1977) (see photographs on Bezark 2022a), but differs as follows: head and prothorax black; antennomere III almost pedunculate-clavate; pronotum coarsely longitudinally striate; elytral centrobasal crest absent; elytral eburneous macula not reaching suture. In P. xanthocollis, the head and prothorax are orangish, antennomere III gradually widened from base to apex, pronotum finely longitudinally striate, elytral centrobasal crest present, and the elytral eburneous macula reaching suture. Pentanodes baldwini new species differs from P. clavatus new species by the scape shorter and wider (longer and slender in P. clavatus), absence of the centrobasal crest on the elytra (present in P. clavatus), and elytral punctures more abundant, especially on basal half (sparser in P. clavatus).</p> <p>LAMIINAE Latreille, 1825 ACROCININI Swainson, 1840</p> <p>Oreodera Audinet-Serville, 1835</p> <p>Remarks. According to Souza et al. (2020): “According to the parsimony analysis, the monophyly of Acrocinini, including Acrocinus, Macropophora and Oreodera, is supported by six synapomorphies: prothorax with a conspicuous suture surrounding the lateral tubercle …; pronotum with linear coarse punctuation at the posterior margin …; protibia cylindrical …; protibia with a projection near sulcus at inner face ….; protibia without a pair of apical spurs at inner margin …; and protarsomere II longer than wide …;” and “Among the synapomorphies for Acrocinini, containing Acrocinus, Macropophora and Oreodera, the protibia without spurs is the most remarkable diagnostic character of the tribe.” Although the prothoracic suture surrounding the lateral tubercle is conspicuous in many species of Oreodera, it is slightly distinct, as reported by Souza et al. (2020), or even entirely absent in some species. Furthermore, the apex of the protibiae has a short but distinct spur in some species of Oreodera (Fig. 18–19); however we did not find any species of Oreodera with two spurs on the apex of the protibiae, as occurs in all Acanthoderini examined by us. These differences, which do not fully agree with the concept of Acrocinini by Souza et al. (2020), may indicate that they are variable in Acanthoderini. However, a more detailed study of Acanthoderini will be needed to establish whether Oreodera really belongs to Acrocinini, in this case with corrections on the concept of this tribe, or if, in fact, that the features pointed out are just extreme variations on Acanthoderini, with intermediate conditions of the features in some genera, especially in Oreodera.</p> </div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/0E45161CFFC99F4EFF14DDA5D636F997	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Novantinoe falsa is similar to N. noguerai Santos-Silva and Le Tirant, 2016 (see photographs on Bezark 2022a), but differs as follows: anterolateral tubercles of the pronotum more elevated and slightly inclined toward outside; elytral punctures finer; elytral apex not spiniform; and profemora without spiniform projections ventrally.

It differs from N. fabiolae Botero, Heffern and Santos-Silva, 2018 (see photographs on Bezark 2022a), especially by the wider prosternal process (Fig. 38), with its narrowest area about as wide as the diameter of antennomere III (narrowest area distinctly narrower (Fig. 39) than the diameter of antennomere III in N. fabiolae), pronotum slightly contrasting in color with elytra (strongly contrasting in N. fabiolae), elytra without dark longitudinal band along suture (present in N. fabiolae), and scutellum about as long as wide (longer than wide in N. fabiolae).
