Abstract

A list of checkered beetles (Coleoptera: Cleridae) collected at Finca Las Piedras (Madre Dios, Peru) is presented. Eight new country records for Peru, field observations and taxonomic notes are presented, and distributions are updated for all species herein. The species Phyllobaenus cylindricollis (Gorham, 1886), formerly not known from South America, is supplemented with data from additional geographic regions. Taxonomic problems involving Phyllobaenus cylindricollis (Gorham, 1886), the genus Plocamocera, Enoclerus bipartitus (Schenkling, 1915), E. flavibasisChapin, 1927 (status restored) and E. dichrousChapin, 1927 are reviewed and include the assessment of type specimens.
