Updated catalog and generic keys of the Leiodidae (Insecta: Coleoptera) of the Neotropical region (“ Latin America ”: Mexico, the West Indies, and Central and South America) Author Peck, Stewart B.

Type genus: Choleva Latreille. Distribution: Worldwide. Note 1: Jeannel (1936) offered the first extensive revision of the subfamily (as family at that time), which subdivisions were afterwards revised in several instances. Note 2: Antunes-Carvalho et al. (2019) offer a phylogenetic analysis of the subfamily. Note. Tribe LEPTODIRINI Lacordaire , wrongly reported for the Neotropics: The genus Neotropospeonella Pace, 1985: 542 , 1987: 195 and the species N. decui Pace, 1985: 542 , 1987: 197 were described from Cueva del Guacharo, Caripe, Venezuela and placed in the tribe Lepdodirini Lacordaire [1854 (1849)], where the subtribe Neotropospeonellina Perkovsky [1997] was proposed. Perreau, 2003: 212 , 216 synonymized this genus and species into Oryotus ravasinii Müller [1922] , a troglobitic species of Italy , and recognized the Venezuelan record as an error based on a mislabelled specimen. Therefore, all these taxa do not occur in the Neotropics.
