GODINEZ-CORTES, Sergio; ROMERO NAPOLES, Jesús y CASTELLANOS, Ignacio. Species of the Bruchidae family (Coleoptera) at Zimapán, Hidalgo, Mexico: new records, host plants, and key for their identification. Acta Zool. Mex [online]. 2017, vol.33, n.2, pp.266-313. ISSN 2448-8445.
Results of field collects and the BRUCOL database, we present and illustrate 27 know bruchids species, recorded in the municipality of Zimapán, Hidalgo, México. Their host plants, new distributions, and the type of vegetation where it can be find are presented, addressing important aspects of their biology such as oviposition and voltinism. The most relevant results is a new record of the genus Abutiloneus and nine new species records to Hidalgo, México: Abutiloneus idoneus Bridwell, 1946; Acanthoscelides aequalis (Sharp, 1885), Acanthoscelides speciosus (Schaeffer, 1907); Meibomeus hidalgoi Kingsolver & Whitehead, 1976; Merobruchus porphyreus Kingsolver, 1988; Mimosestes humeralis (Gyllenhal, 1833); Mimosestes janzeni Kingsolver & Johnson, 1978; Sennius discolor (Horn, 1873) and Stator vachelliae Bottimer, 1973; two new host plants, Acacia farnesiana (L.) Willd. for M. humeralis and M. janzeni, and Senna guatemalensis (Donn. Sm.) H. S. Irwin & Barneby variety hidalgensis H. S. Irwin & Barneby for S. discolor and S. fallax; and a new host plant recorded in Mexico for Megacerus maculiventris (Fåhraeus, 1839), Ipomoea purpurea (L.) Roth. Finally, a taxonomic key is provided to identify the bruchid species. This study offers insights to the taxonomic-faunal knowledge of this group of insects and lays the basis for future studies.
