Platymorpha Jacoby, 1888: 602 View in CoL (type species Platymorpha variegata Jacoby, 1888 , by original designation).

Remarks

This genus includes three described species. They occur in Mexico and Central America. See Figs 106 View Figs 100–108 , 176 View Figs 176–179. 176 , and 177 for habitus illustrations and morphological details. The preapical notch of the male middle tibia, characteristic of the section Phyllecthrites, is very small or absent in some species of this genus. The following key enables correct identification, whether or not the notch is interpreted to be present. Chthoneis smaragdipennis Jacoby, 1888 , formerly included in Platymorpha , is herein transferred to Trachyelytron gen. nov.
