Abstract

The bethylid genus Solepyris Azevedo (Scleroderminae) is studied and revised. Five species are recognized, including three previously described ones: †S. electromexicanus Brazidec and Perrichot, S. montuosus Azevedo, and S. unicus Azevedo. Additionally, two new species are described and illustrated: S. maleku sp. nov. from Costa Rica and S. pataxo sp. nov. from Brazil. An emended diagnosis and a detailed discussion regarding the morphological diagnostic characters of this genus are also presented. A taxonomic key for all species is provided.
