2. Body strongly flattened. Elytra distinctly dilated laterally towards apices..............................Planophileurus Chapin
- Body not strongly flattened. Elytra not noticeably dilated .......................................................................................... 3
3. Apex of metatibia with 3 large teeth. Tubercles or horns of frons located at sides of head...... Homophileurus Kolbe
- Apex of metatibia with 1–2 large teeth. Tubercles or horns located on sides of head or not ...................................... 4
4. Tubercles or horns of frons located nearer center of head, far from lateral edge. Pronotum lacking fovea or anterior declivity; longitudinal furrow variable, usually lacking 2 small tubercles at anterior end.......... Hemiphileurus Kolbe
- Tubercles or horns located near lateral margin of head. Pronotum with anterior, foveate cavity or broad declivity; longitudinal furrow strong, usually with 2 distinct tubercles at anterior end .................................. Phileurus Latreille
5. Head and pronotum lacking tubercles, horns, carinae, or fovea. Claw with onychium bisetose ( Cyclocephalini View in CoL ) .... 6
- Head and/or pronotum (whether males or females) with distinct tubercles, horns, carinae, or fovea. Claw with ony- chium bisetose to multisetose ...................................................................................................................................... 9
