Abstract

Lectotypes are designated for Odonteucoila chapadae and Coneucoela brasiliensis (type-species of the respective genera); four new synonymies and fourteen new combinations are proposed. Odonteucoila auct. is considered polyphyletic. The re-defined genus Odonteucoila is placed in the Chrestosema group of genera and appears to have a strictly Neotropical distribution.
