Abstract

A phylogenetic analysis based on adult morphology that includes some genera included in the tribe Anomalini is presented, to redefine the genus Anomala Samouelle, 1819, and evaluate its phylogenetic situation. The parsimony analysis, based on 46 species of 18 genera from several areas of the world, allowed us to test the monophyly of some genera and evaluate their taxonomic position, and to reveal that the generic limits are not clear.

This brief paper describes new Arizona state distribution records for Haroldiellus sallei (Harold) (Scarabaeidae: Aphodiinae: Aphodiini) and Phyllophaga crinita (Burmeister) (Scarabaeidae: Melolonthinae: Rhizotrogini), as well as new USA country records (Arizona and Texas, respectively) for Haroldiataenius limbatus (Bates) (Scarabaeidae: Aphodiinae: Eupariini) and Amithao erythropus (Burmeister) (Scarabaeidae: Cetoniinae: Gymnetini).

By R.D. Gordon and D.M. Anderson
The Florida Entomologist, 64 (1): 119-138 , 1981

The species are: Phyllophaga latifrons (LeConte), Anomala marginata (F.), Cyclocephala parallela Casey, Dyscinetus morator (F.), Ligyrus subtropicus (Blatchley), and Euphoria sepulchralis (F.). Descriptions and illustrations of the larvae of all these species are presented as well as descriptions and illustrations of the adults of all species except Euphoria sepulchralis (F.).
