Ophraella Wilcox, 1965: 43 View in CoL

(type species Galleruca notata Fabricius, 1801 , by original designation).

Remarks

This genus contains 14 described species, occurring from Canada to Mexico. See Figs 37–39 View Figs 37–45 for habitus illustrations. See LeSage (1986) for a key to the species. However, realize that two additional species have been named subsequent to that key ( Futuyma 1990, 1991). Another species, O. godmani ( Jacoby, 1886) , occurring in Mexico and Guatemala, is also included in the genus, but this generic placement is extremely questionable. Several South American species have also been included in the genus ( Bechyné 1997), but we also doubt this placement.
