New records of the genus Anaides Westwood, 1842 (Coleoptera, Hybosoridae, Anaidinae) from the Chocó Biogeographic Region of Colombia

Abstract

During a recent expedition in the moist lowland Chocó forests from Colombia, three species of Anaides Westwood, 1842 were collected. These specimens represent important extensions to their distribution and are notable records for the Chocó Biogeographic Region of Colombia, and for the country itself. Anaides fossulatus Westwood, 1842 is recorded for the first time in the Colombian Chocó region, Anaides planus Ocampo, 2006 is confirmed for Colombia, and the distribution of Anaides longeciliatus Balthasar, 1938 is extended to Colombia.
