Remarks. Fabricius (1802) (not 1801—see date in Bousquet (2016)) described Cerambyx bidens from “ America meridionali” (no further details) based on unknown number of specimens. Zimsen (1964) reported the existence of two specimens: “ Cerambyx bidens Syst. El. II p. 271—25 “in America meridionali D. Smidt Mus. D. de Schestedt”.—Copenhagen 1 specimen. (Kiel 1 specimen).” Erichson (1849) described C. castanopterum based on a single specimen from Guyana. Bates (1870a) described S. femorale based on syntypes male and female (at least a couple) from Brazil (Lower Amazons). Fragoso (1995) synonymized C. castanopterum and S. femorale with Sphallotrichus bidens , and designated a specimen from Brazil (Pará, Tapajós) as lectotype of S. femorale .

Currently, it is known from Venezuela (Aragua, Bolívar, and Tachira), Colombia, French Guiana, Guyana, Brazil (Amapá, Amazonas, Pará, Mato Grosso, Maranhão, Bahia, Minas Gerais, São Paulo, and Santa Catarina), and Bolivia (Santa Cruz) ( Monné 2024a; Tavakilian & Chevillotte 2023).
