(FSCA).</p> <p>Etymology. The new species is named in honor of Frederick W. Skillman Jr. (FWSC), one of the collectors of the holotype.</p> <p>Remarks. Bebelis skillmani sp. nov. is similar to B. cuprina (Belon, 1903) (Figs 35–39), but differs as follows: dorsal surface with short and thick white setae interspersed, which are distinctly erect on the elytra; anterior and posterior white pubescent bands on the pronotum not aligned on anterior third; anterior half of the pronotum with oblique white pubescent bands and maculae centrally; lower eye lobes shorter than genae (Fig. 34); and pubescence on the sides of the metaventrite not forming dense yellowish-brown band (Fig. 32).

Breuning (1960) considered D. geometrica as a subspecies of Bebelis acuta, status maintained until today. According to Breuning (1971) on D. geometrica (translated): “As the typical form [B. acuta], but the antennae a little less strong, the pronotum as long as wide, the blackish bands of the pronotum not very distinct, the blackish lateral ones situated a little higher, the dark curved band before middle of the elytron reaching the suture a little further back and no white stripe on the mesanepisternum.” However, all the differences pointed out by Breuning (1971) are not true or, sometimes, they are just variations found both in specimens from southern South America (Figs 53–55) and in species from Mexico and Central America (Figs 56–58). Accordingly, Dorcasta geometrica is synonymized with Bebelis acuta.</p> <p>Later, Belon (1903) described Dorcasta laetabilis based on a single specimen from Bolivia, and compared it with D. geometrica (translated): “ D. laetabilis is of a somewhat larger size; the prothorax is weakly concave close to the posterior angles that are not acutely projected; the subconvergent oblique lines of the pronotum are slightly shorter and hardly exceed the middle; the circum-scutellar macula of the elytra is more triangular than semicircular, clearly less elongated, covered with a fine persistent and fairly tight pubescence, grayish in appearance, under which the dark and is less dark, the tomentose white fascia which borders in behind the circum-scutellar macula is relatively larger; the same is true of the flexuous white band which outlines the external lateral spot and separates it from the fulvous-testaceous median region and its two extensions toward the humerus and toward the dorsal area; finally, a single white line extends on each side of the suture without interruption until the apical slope which it does not exceed.” All these differences pointed out by Belon (1903) are variable in specimens from South America, Mexico, and Central America; even the posterolateral angles of the prothorax may or may not be acutely projected in specimens from these three regions. Accordingly, Dorcasta laetabilis is synonymized with B. acuta.</p> <p>Material examined (all specimens from MZSP). COSTA RICA, San José: La Caja, 8 km W.

Pascoe (1975) described Bebelis picta based on syntypes from Brazil (Rio de Janeiro). Bates (1885) described Dorcasta obtusa based on syntypes from Mexico and Guatemala. Gahan (1895) recorded D. obtusa from Saint Vincent Island (Saint Vincent and the Grenadines), in the West Indies, and Leng &amp; Mutchler (1914) reported it from Cuba. Fisher (1947b) described D. schwarzi from Cuba and reported that it differs from D. obtusa because it is possible to see in the figure provided by Bates (1885) that the former has black oblique bands near elytral apex, while they are absent in the latter. However, the oblique dark band on the posterior area of the elytra may or may not be distinct, and is present at least in a syntype of D. obtusa. This band is also present in a syntype of B. picta. Breuning (1971) synonymized D. obtusa with B. picta, and separated it from D. schwarzi as follows in his key (translated): “eyes strongly emarginate,” leading to B. schwarzi; and “eyes subdivided,” leading to B. picta. However, this difference does not exist. Comparing specimens of B. picta (Figs 59–61) from continental America with specimens from Cuba, identified as D. schwarzi (Figs 62–64), it is possible to see that there are no differences between these species. Accordingly, they are synonymized. As the number of references to B. picta is very large, see Monné (2021) and Tavakilian &amp; Chevillotte (2021) for full references on it.</p> <p>Material examined (all specimens from MZSP).

However, Bebelis zeteki is not equal to B. modesta and differs as follows: dorsal surface of the head has a narrow pubescent band on each side, from antennal tubercles to prothorax, and the area between them is dark; area behind upper eye lobes with narrow longitudinal pubescent band; anterior third of the elytra with two narrow, parallel-sided white pubescent bands from humerus to suture, with contrasting pubescence between them, and posterior quarter with oblique white pubescent band not connected to the former; posterior quarter of the elytra with dark pubescent spots; and outer apical angle of the elytra acute and distinctly projected. In B. modesta, the dorsal surface of the head and the area behind upper eye lobes are entirely covered by uniform pubescence, not forming bands or exposing dark areas, the elytra have a continuous and sinuous white pubescent band, from humerus to near apex, there are no dark pubescent spots on posterior area of the elytra, and the outer apical angle of the elytra is not distinctly projected.</p> <p>It is possible that B. zeteki is a junior synonym of B. elongata (Lameere, 1893). Comparing photographs of the holotypes of the two species, the differences are small and practically restricted to details of the pubescence on the pronotum and elytra, suggesting that they belong to the same species. However, without examining specimens it is not possible to be sure.</p> </div>	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/03F12B63046F0D787591FC5B79C3F972	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Apparently, they are all synonyms, and were not included in the key. It is also possible that B. cuprina is also synonym of B. elongata.</p> <p>Note 2: There are specimens agreeing with B. cuprina with outer angle slightly projected, as well as specimens with outer angle not projected. The specimens with outer angle projected were not included in the key.</p> <p>Note 3: It is not possible to separate B. lignosa and B. occulta. They probably are a single species, and were not included in the key.</p> <p>Note 4: Apparently, B. puncticollis (Fisher, 1947) and B. leo Monné &amp; Monné, 2009 are synonyms of B. mexicana, and were not included in the key.</p> </div>	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/03F12B6304610D777591FDB679D4FAC3	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
