Abstract

The species of the genus Monomachus Klug occurring in the Americas are revised. The genus is found from Chile and Argentina north to the Mexican states of Oaxaca and Chiapas. A total of 20 species are considered to be valid and 9 are described as new: M. atratussp. nov., M. aurifersp. nov., M. cultratussp. nov., M. exulsp. nov., M. intonsussp. nov., M. paulussp. nov., M. satyrussp. nov., M. serratussp. nov., and M. velatussp. nov. The species M. bicolor Szépligeti, M. cubiceps Schrottky, M. eurycephalus Schletterer, M. fuscator (Perty), M. glaberrimus Schletterer, M. klugii Westwood, M. megacephalus Schletterer, M. pallescens Schletterer, M. porteri Brèthes, M. segmentator Westwood, and M. variegatus Schletterer are redescribed. Monomachus lateralis Westwood is considered a nomen dubium stat. nov.; a lectotype is designated for M. cubiceps; and Monomachus fuscator andinus Schulz is treated as a junior synonym of M. fuscator, syn. nov. A key to the species of the New World and a checklist of the world species is provided. Monomachus fuscator and M. eurycephalus are parasitoids of the coffee pest Chiromyza vittata Wiedemann (Diptera: Stratiomyidae, Chiromyzinae).

Résumé

Nous avons fait la révision des espèces du genre Monomachus Klug qui habitent les Amériques. Le genre se répartit depuis le Chili et l'Argentine jusqu'aux états mexicains d'Oaxaca et du Chiapas vers le nord, en tout, 20 espèces valides, dont 9 sont décrites pour la première fois: M. atratussp. nov., M. aurifersp. nov., M. cultratussp. nov., M. exulsp. nov., M. intonsussp. nov., M. paulussp. nov., M. satyrussp. nov., M. serratussp. nov. et M. velatussp. nov. Nous décrivons de nouveau les espèces M. bicolor Szépligeti, M. cubiceps Scrottky, M. eurycephalus Schletterer, M. fuscator (Perty), M. glaberrimus Schletterer, M. klugii Westwood, M. megacephalus Schletterer, M. pallescens Schletterer, M. porteri Brèthes, M. segmentator Westwood et M. variegatus Schletterer. Nous considérons M. lateralis Westwood comme un nomen dubium, stat. nov.; nous avons désigné un lectotype pour M. cubiceps; et nous traitons M. fuscator andinus Schulz comme un synonyme plus récent de M. fuscator, syn. nov. Nous avons dressé une clef d'identification des espèces du Nouveau Monde et une liste des espèces à l'échelle mondiale. Monomachus fuscator et M. eurycephalus sont des parasitoïdes du ravageur du caféier Chiromyza vittata Wiedemann (Diptera: Stratiomyidae, Chiromyzinae).
