ABSTRACT
We present new records for 42 species of longhorn beetles (Cerambycinae) in the Amazon Region, including the first report of Tomopteropsis cerdai Peñaherrera-Leiva & Tavakilian, 2003 in Brazil (Rondônia). New state records are provided for Amapá (one species), Amazonas (six species), Pará (one species), Rondônia (seven species), Roraima (13 species), and Acre (17 species). The new records expand the known distribution of the species and illustrate the important role played by inventories like the thematic network “Biodiversidade de Insetos na Amazônia” (Rede BIA) in helping us understand the biodiversity of the Amazon region.
KEY WORDS:
Amazon basin; Biodiversity; Brazil; longhorn beetles
INTRODUCTION
Cerambycidae, commonly known as longhorned beetles or longhorned woodboring beetles, is one of the largest families of Coleoptera, with more than 38,000 valid species (Tavakilian and Chevillotte 2022Tavakilian G, Chevillotte H (2022) Base de données Titan sur les Cerambycidés ou Longicornes. http://titan.gbif.fr
http://titan.gbif.fr...
). Although cerambycids are distributed worldwide, most species are restricted to the Neotropics (Monné et al. 2017Monné ML, Monné MA, Wang Q (2017). General Morphology, Classification and Biology of Cerambycidae. In: Wang Q (Ed.) Cerambycidae of the world. Biology and Pest Management. Taylor and Francis, Boca Raton, 1-70.). In Brazil, ca. 4,400 species are known, 1,500 of which are in the Brazilian Amazon (Monné and Monné 2021Monné MA, Monné ML (2021) Cerambycidae. In: Catálogo Taxonômico da Fauna do Brasil. PNUD. http://fauna.jbrj.gov.br/
http://fauna.jbrj.gov.br/...
).
Cerambycid adults are free-living beetles that may or may not need to feed. Lifespan varies from a few days to a few months, depending on whether they feed or not. The larvae of most species feed and develop inside plants. There are exceptions: the larval stages of a few species are free-living in the soil and feed on plant roots. Many cerambycid larvae feed on dead plants and play a major role in recycling vegetable matter, whereas others feed on life plants - varying from very stressed to healthy (Hequet 1996Hequet V (1996) Longicornes de Guyane. Crestig Editeur, Silvolab Orstom, Cayenne, 36 pp., Monné et al. 2017Monné ML, Monné MA, Wang Q (2017). General Morphology, Classification and Biology of Cerambycidae. In: Wang Q (Ed.) Cerambycidae of the world. Biology and Pest Management. Taylor and Francis, Boca Raton, 1-70.).
Eight subfamilies are usually recognized in Cerambycidae: Cerambycinae, Dorcasominae, Lamiinae, Lepturinae, Necydalinae, Parandrinae, Prioninae and Spondylidinae (Haddad et al. 2018Haddad S, Shin S, Lemmon AR, Lemmon EM, Svacha P, Farrell B, McKenna DD (2018). Anchored hybrid enrichment provides new insights into the phylogeny and evolution of longhorned beetles (Cerambycidae). Systematic Entomology 43(1): 68-89. https://doi.org/10.1111/syen.12257
https://doi.org/10.1111/syen.12257...
), but recent evidence have supported the treatment of Necydalinae and Parandrinae as part of Lepturinae and Prioninae, respectively, reducing the number of subfamilies to six (Nie et al. 2021Nie R, Vogler AP, Yang XK, Lin M (2021) Higher-level phylogeny of longhorn beetles (Coleoptera: Chrysomeloidea) inferred from mitochondrial genomes. Systematic Entomology 46(1): 56-70. https://doi.org/10.1111/syen.12447
https://doi.org/10.1111/syen.12447...
). Cerambycinae and Lamiinae are the most species-rich subfamilies in the Neotropical Region (Monné et al. 2017Monné ML, Monné MA, Wang Q (2017). General Morphology, Classification and Biology of Cerambycidae. In: Wang Q (Ed.) Cerambycidae of the world. Biology and Pest Management. Taylor and Francis, Boca Raton, 1-70.). In this contribution, we focus on the subfamily Cerambycinae, presenting 42 new state records for Acre, Amapá, Amazonas, Pará, Rondônia and Roraima, including the first report of Tomopteropsis cerdaiPeñaherrera-Leiva & Tavakilian, 2003Peñaherrera-Leiva AY, Tavakilian GL (2003) Nouvelles espèces et nouveaux genres de Rhinotragini (Coleoptera, Cerambycidae). I. Coléoptères 9(13): 163-214. in Brazil.
MATERIAL AND METHODS
The specimens are deposited at the Invertebrate Collection of the Instituto Nacional de Pesquisas da Amazônia, Manaus (INPA) and the Museu Nacional, Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro, Rio de Janeiro (MNRJ). Most of the material was collected under Rede BIA project, using malaise traps or manual collecting methods. Some specimens were already deposited in the Invertebrate Collection of INPA.
The species were determined based on taxonomic revisions and original descriptions as presented in the Species diagnosis subsection for each species. Some specimens were identified by comparison with other specimens deposited at INPA. Information on their known distribution was gathered from Monné (2022Monné MA (2022) Catalogue of the Cerambycidae (Coleoptera) of the Neotropical Region. Part I. Subfamily Cerambycinae. https://cerambycids.com/catalog
https://cerambycids.com/catalog...
) and Tavakilian and Chevillotte (2022Tavakilian G, Chevillotte H (2022) Base de données Titan sur les Cerambycidés ou Longicornes. http://titan.gbif.fr
http://titan.gbif.fr...
).
Information on each specimen examined is provided below, followed by the institution where the specimen is deposited. Photographs of specimens were taken using a Leica DFC 500 digital camera attached to a Leica MZ16 stereoscope and images were edited using the computer software Leica LAS 3D Viewer and LAS Montage v. 4.7. The photographs were further edited in Adobe Photoshop.

DISCUSSION
Our knowledge of the Cerambycidae fauna in the Amazon Region has greatly improved in recent years due to the thematic network “Biodiversidade de Insetos na Amazônia” (Rede BIA). The objective of this project, carried out by research groups from several institutions, is the study of the insects of the Amazon basin. The headquarters of the project are located at Instituto Nacional de Pesquisas da Amazônia (INPA), Manaus, Brazil. This is the second publication on the Cerambycidae collected by Rede BIA. In the first publication, we described a new species of Cerambycidae from Acre (Unachlorus rafaeliMonné & Monné, 2018Monné ML, Monné MA (2018) New species and distribution notes of Cerambycidae (Coleoptera) for the state of Acre and the Amazon basin, Brazil. Zootaxa 4442(3): 458-468. https://doi.org/10.11646/zootaxa.4442.3.7
https://doi.org/10.11646/zootaxa.4442.3....
), and provided three new country records for Brazil and 32 new state records for the Brazilian states of Acre, Amazonas and Roraima (Monné and Monné 2018Monné ML, Monné MA (2018) New species and distribution notes of Cerambycidae (Coleoptera) for the state of Acre and the Amazon basin, Brazil. Zootaxa 4442(3): 458-468. https://doi.org/10.11646/zootaxa.4442.3.7
https://doi.org/10.11646/zootaxa.4442.3....
).
The new records presented here include one species widely distributed across the Neotropical Region: Juiaparus mexicanus, with records from Mexico to southern Brazil (Rio Grande do Sul) (Monné 2022Monné MA (2022) Catalogue of the Cerambycidae (Coleoptera) of the Neotropical Region. Part I. Subfamily Cerambycinae. https://cerambycids.com/catalog
https://cerambycids.com/catalog...
). Given the wide distribution of this species, its occurrence in Acre and Amapá was expected. The new records here presented are important because they confirm the hypothesis that these species are continuously distributed across different biomes. These beetles can use a wide variety of species of plants as hosts (Monné 2022Monné MA (2022) Catalogue of the Cerambycidae (Coleoptera) of the Neotropical Region. Part I. Subfamily Cerambycinae. https://cerambycids.com/catalog
https://cerambycids.com/catalog...
), suggesting that their dispersal capabilities are dependent on the availability of their host plants rather than on environmental conditions.
The new record of Tomopteropsis cerdai in Brazil (Rondônia) is particularly important because this species was only formally known by the holotype, a female specimen from the French Guiana (Peñaherrera-Leiva and Tavakilian 2003). The new record suggests this species is widely distributed across the Amazon Forest. Another important aspect of our finding is that it is a male: now we know that males have the femoral club markedly wider than females (Fig. 16).
Our knowledge on the distribution of 11 species has been considerably improved by our findings. Austroeme modesta, previously known to occur only in the Brazilian state of Goiás and Uruguay, is recorded for the first time in the Amazon Region. The distribution of 10 other species is now known to be wider in South America than previously thought: Ceragenia bicornis, Coccoderus longespinicornis, Diorus biapiculatus, Ectenessa spinipennis, Glyptoscapus pallidulus, Haruspex lineolatus, Ozodes infuscatus, Paranyssicus conspicillatus, Praxithea borgmeieri and Thecladoris tylonotoides. The large number of new records presented in this study expands the distribution of 42 species of Cerambycinae and highlights how little we know about the distribution of this important group of beetles in the Neotropical Region.
