Remarks. Hamaederus rusticus was described based on six syntypes (five males and one female – MNHN; one specimen – BMNH) from Brazil (Goiás). Currently, it is known from Brazil (Amazonas, Pará, Mato Grosso, Mato Grosso do Sul, Goiás, São Paulo), French Guiana, and Bolivia (Santa Cruz) ( Monné 2021; Tavakilian and Chevillotte 2021).

According to the key proposed by Martins and Monné (2002) (translated): “Scape without apical cicatrix,” leading to H. plicatus ( Olivier, 1790) , H. mirim ( Martins and Monné, 2002) , H. fasciatus ( Martins and Monné, 1975) , and H. pisinnus (Martin and Monné, 1975) / Scape with apical cicatrix,” leading to H. rusticus and other species; and “Scape finely and densely punctate, without rugosities; apical region just with carina.” However, H. rusticus ( Fig. 62 ), as well as H. fasciatus ( Fig 24, 28 ), have an apical cicatrix on the apex of the scape.
