Remarks.

In Kimsey and Bohart (1991: 297), under the name Brugmoia [= Euchroeus ] torrida ( Mocsáry, 1889). The generic name Euchroeus Latreille was conserved by the International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature (ICZN, Opinion 1906). The name candens was considered as a junior secondary homonym of Chrysura candens Germar, 1817 (currently Chrysura candens ) by Mocsáry (1889). Since the two respective species have been considered as belonging to different genera after 1889, the name Euchroeus candens must be considered as a valid name ( Madl and Rosa 2012: 84).
