Cidoria flava Amyot & Serville, 1843

Figs. 8A, B

Distribution: Cidoria flava is known from French Guiana (Maldonado 1990) and Peru (Zhang & Weirauch 2014), and it represents a new generic and species record from Colombia. All known specimens are restricted to the Amazon basin.

Remarks: Cidoria flava is probably a nocturnal Harpactorini species because it has been collected at lights (Bérenger 2007). Mejía-Soto et al. (2022) suggested that C. flava might be a Ploeogaster species. Zhang & Weirauch (2014) included a specimen identified as Ploeogaster sp. (UCR_ENT 00001516, RCW_636), which given its pronotal structure, fits what has been described as Cidoria (Mejia-Soto et al. 2022) . This specimen was nested within the Ploeogaster clade in the analysis of Zhang & Weirauch (2014). Future studies might corroborate this, leading to the synonymy of Cidoria and Ploeogaster .
