MacGown, J.A. & Hill, J.G. (2023). A new species of Hypothyce from Alabama, United States of America. ZooKeys 1168: 1-10.

Abstract

A new species, Hypothyce rayi MacGown & Hill, sp. nov. (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae: Melolonthinae: Melolonthini), is described from east central Alabama, USA. Three other species of Hypothyce, H. burnei Skelley, H. mixta Howden and H. osburni (Cartwright) are known to occur in the United States. We discuss differences between these species and provide an updated identification key to the genus.
