The Neotropical longhorned beetle tribe Hemilophini has been reviewed by Martins & Galileo (2014a, b) and currently contains 542 species (Monné 2017). Some of the most conspicuous longhorned beetle taxa are found in this tribe, for example species with a pair of cephalic horns (Phoebe Audinet-Serville, 1835), or others that strongly resemble to nox...

... specimen of the new species was collected in La Guardia (17°52'59"S; 63°19'04"W), in a fragment of primary forest of ~10 hectares at an elevation of 480 meters (Fig. 1). The forest fragment is situated in the Andrés Ibáñez province, between the city of Santa Cruz de la Sierra (distance to western limit ~7 km), La Guardia village (distance to eastern limit ~500 m) and Piraí River (distance ~600 m) ( Fig. 1). A second specimen was collected 5 km SSE of Buena Vista (Robin Clarke and Sonia Zamalloa col., ...

... distribution. Icimauna espinozai sp. nov. has been collected from sub-Andean Amazon (Buena Vista) and Chiquitano (La Guardia) forest at the Bolivian orocline in Santa Cruz department (Fig. 1C). The mean annual rainfall in Buena Vista amounts to 2,101 mm with a mean annual temperature of 24.1°C ( Abrahamczyk et al. 2013). Navarro & Ferreira (2011) made reference to the forest in Buena Vista as pluviseasonal sub-Andean Amazon forest with the indicator tree species Swietenia macrophylla King 1886 (Meliaceae) and Terminalia ...

Additionally, both ecosystems may contain elements from the relatively close Andean forests in the west and subtropical deciduous Gran Chaco forests in the south (see Fig. ...

... The beating tray sampling in a transect of 300 m and with an effort of six hours during two days revealed three species that were unknown to science (25% of the collected species), two of them were already described (see Perger & Santos-Silva 2018a, b). Although present-day expeditions in the Amazon area are not as difficult as those in Bates' times and a vast number of Amazon species have been described since then, the current study indicates that particularly Bolivian forests in the Amazon area still have high potential for the discovery of unknown, ecologically interesting long-horned beetle taxa (see also Perger & Santos-Silva 2010;Santos-Silva & Perger 2017). ...

Mimolaia batesi sp. nov. from Bolivian Yungas forest is described and illustrated. The new species likely displays Batesian mimicry associated with slender Lycidae species having black elytra and orange/reddish pronotum laterally.

Some of the most conspicuous long-horned beetle taxa are found in this tribe, for example species with a pair of cephalic horns (Phoebe Audinet-Serville), or others that strongly resemble noxious Lycidae (e.g. Apeba Martins & Galileo, Calocosmus Chevrolat, or Icimauna Martins & Galileo) (see Lingafelter 2013;Galileo 2014a, 2014b;Santos-Silva and Perger 2017). ...
