Abstract

Keys to species, descriptions, synonymy, host plants, and geographical distributions are presented for the three species in the genus Decellebruchus (Borowiec 1987); of those, D. walker (Pic 1912) was the only species included at the time of the genus denomination, D. atrolineatus (Pic 1921) is transferred to this genus, and D. lunae is described as a new species. The shortest and most parsimonious phylogenetic tree for genera with pectinate antennae had a length of 33, consistency index 87, and retention index 81.
