Electraugochlora Engel, new status Electraugochlora Engel, 2000. Type species: Augochlora (Electraugochlora) leptoloba Engel, 2000 by original designation. Not examined. Comments. We made some efforts to include this species in our analysis based on the original description, but the results were very unstable, probably due to the large amount of missing data. According to the original description and a revised phylogeny of Augochlorini ( Goncalves et al. in press ), A. leptoloba could be a sister group with all other Augochlora . However, the uncertainty on several morphological attributes of this species and the lack of the acute angle of epistomal sulcus, a distinctive feature of Augochlora , are indicative for us to consider Electraugochlora as a separate genus.
