Species of Coelosis may be distinguished by the tridentate protibiae, head of male with a horn, elytra with distinct rows of punctures, clypeus usually narrow and bidentate at its apex, and mandibles tridentate. Adults are nocturnal and attracted to lights. The genus contains seven species and is widely distrubuted in the New World ( Endrödi 1976, 1985). Six of them are reported in Brazil, and two species occur in the Brazilian Amazon.
