Property Value
dbo:abstract
  • Zenocolaspis is a genus of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae. It is known from North America and South America. There are at least two described species in Zenocolaspis. The genus is very similar to Colaspis (also known as Maecolaspis), but the body is smaller and the eyes are strongly convex and prominent externally. The genus was established by the Czech entomologist Jan Bechyné in a monograph titled "Evaluación de los datos sobre los Phytophaga dañinos en Venezuela (Coleoptera)" before his death in 1973, but the work (including the description of the genus) was unpublished until October 1997. However, as early as 1968 it was indicated that some species from Colaspis had been moved to Zenocolaspis, before the formal description of the latter was published. (en)
