Key to males of the Neotropical species of Cephalosphaera View in CoL View at ENA and Neocephalosphaera
This key is a result of the modification of those by Rafael (1992) and Souza & Ale-Rocha (2009). The initial for genera were adapted from Skevington & Yeates (2001) and Rafael & Skevington (2010).
