The subfamily Donaciinae (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae) in Mexico

The subfamily Donaciinae is distinguished from the rest of the leaf beetles by the aquatic larvae and semiaquatic adults. In Mexico, there are records for Donacia Fabricius, Neohaemonia Székessy, and Plateumaris Thomson. The study of this subfamily in Mexico is poor; thus, in the present work, a dic...

description The subfamily Donaciinae is distinguished from the rest of the leaf beetles by the aquatic larvae and semiaquatic adults. In Mexico, there are records for Donacia Fabricius, Neohaemonia Székessy, and Plateumaris Thomson. The study of this subfamily in Mexico is poor; thus, in the present work, a dichotomic key for the genera distributed in the country, a diagnosis, and photographs for the species are provided, with the objective of providing a tool that facilitates the identification of the Mexican Donaciinae that could be found in collections or in material from recent collects and thus increase the taxonomic and ecological knowledge of this subfamily. In addition, Neohaemonia flohri (Jacoby) is reported for the first time in Tlaxcala.

López-Pérez, Sara Coleópteros acuáticos Donacia Neohaemonia Plateumaris Aquatic beetles Donacia Neohaemonia Plateumaris The subfamily Donaciinae is distinguished from the rest of the leaf beetles by the aquatic larvae and semiaquatic adults. In Mexico, there are records for Donacia Fabricius, Neohaemonia Székessy, and Plateumaris Thomson. The study of this subfamily in Mexico is poor; thus, in the present work, a dichotomic key for the genera distributed in the country, a diagnosis, and photographs for the species are provided, with the objective of providing a tool that facilitates the identification of the Mexican Donaciinae that could be found in collections or in material from recent collects and thus increase the taxonomic and ecological knowledge of this subfamily. In addition, Neohaemonia flohri (Jacoby) is reported for the first time in Tlaxcala. La subfamilia Donaciinae se caracteriza del resto de los crisomélidos porque sus larvas son acuáticas y los adultos semiacuáticos. En México se han registrado los géneros Donacia Fabricius, Neohaemonia Székessy y Plateumaris Thomson. El estudio de esta subfamilia en México es limitado, por lo que en el presente trabajo se presenta una clave para los géneros distribuidos en el país y una diagnosis e ilustraciones de las especies con el objetivo de proveer una herramienta que facilite la identificación de los Donaciinae mexicanos que pudieran encontrarse en colecciones o en material de recientes colectas, y así incrementar el conocimiento taxonómico y ecológico de esta subfamilia. Se reporta a Neohaemonia flohri (Jacoby) por primera vez en Tlaxcala.
