Genus
Scaphisoma
Leach, 1815
Remarks:
This genus comprises less species in North America that
Baeocera
, while the opposite is in the Old World. To date, 23 species of
Scaphisoma
have been reported from the
USA
(
Newton
et al.,
2001
), including
S. americanum
(
Löbl, 1987
)
originally placed in the subsequently synonymized
Caryoscapha
(see
Leschen & Löbl, 2005
). The following four species have been listed from
Arizona
in
Löbl (2018)
:
S. commune
Löbl, 1997
based on probably a mislabelled specimen of
S. convexum
Say, 1825
(see
Casey, 1893
),
S. desertorum
Casey, 1893
,
S. pusillum
LeConte, 1860
, and
S. rufulum
LeConte, 1860
.
