Genus Golinca Thomson, 1878

Golinca Thomson, 1878: 31 [original description]

Type species. Cetonia bifrons Olivier, 1789: 82 [by original designation].

Gender. Masculine.

Species included. 4 species.

Remarks. When describing Golinca, THOMSON (1878) did not state the gender of the genus name and as such it has not been subsequently established with the combination of specific epithets. We assume that Thomson derived Golinca from the generic names Goliathus and Inca , two genera of which Incini species were previously combined with. Therefore, the gender of the genus should be regarded as masculine, like in Inca (see above).

Distribution. The genus is found in Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Costa Rica ( SOLÍS 2007), Ecuador, French Guiana, and Peru ( Fig. 6 ).
