Key to tribes of Neotropical Metrodorinae View in CoL
1. Body depressed dorso-ventrally ( Figs. 121A View FIGURE 121 , 122A View FIGURE 122 , 125A View FIGURE 125 ). Vertex not projected between the eyes, slightly tapering and truncated anteriorly ( Figs. 121B View FIGURE 121 , 123B View FIGURE 123 , 124B View FIGURE 124 ). Mid-femur strongly expanded, dorsal and ventral margins of mid-femur lobed or foliaceous ( Figs. 121F View FIGURE 121 , 123F View FIGURE 123 ). Species camouflage frequently resembling lichens or bryophytes........... Amorphopini View in CoL
- Body not depressed dorso-ventrally ( Figs. 1A View FIGURE 1 , 15A View FIGURE 15 , 59 View FIGURE 59 ). Vertex variable in shape, projected or not between the eyes ( Figs. 1D View FIGURE 1 , 51B View FIGURE 51 ). Mid-femur thin, not strongly expanded, dorsal and ventral margins of mid-femur without lobes or foliaceous ( Figs. 10E View FIGURE 10 , 43E View FIGURE 43 ). Species rarely camouflage between lichens or bryophytes................................................ 2
2. Vertex whole expanded “horn-like” ( Figs. 77B View FIGURE 77 , 78B View FIGURE 78 ). Head in lateral view strongly oblique ( Figs. 77D View FIGURE 77 , 78A View FIGURE 78 , 80B View FIGURE 80 ), and in frontal view, scutellum very narrow ( Figs. 77C View FIGURE 77 , 80A View FIGURE 80 ). Fore and mid femora with almost straight upper and lower margins ( Figs.80D, E View FIGURE 80 ). Lower margin of the lateral lobes of the pronotum poorly projected to the sides and without any type of armature ( Figs. 80C View FIGURE 80 , 81B View FIGURE 81 , 83B View FIGURE 83 )............................................................. Metopomystrini trib. nov.
- Vertex not prolonged as a whole; if any head extension is observed, it is only the extension of the medial carina of the vertex, which is mostly wide in frontal view; scutellum variable ( Figs. 1D View FIGURE 1 , 10A View FIGURE 10 , 29A View FIGURE 29 ). Fore and mid femora with undulated upper and lower margins ( Figs. 10D View FIGURE 10 , 22D View FIGURE 22 , 29D View FIGURE 29 ). Lower margin of the lateral lobes of the pronotum moderately or well-projected towards the sides, with variable shapes, generally triangular, with or without spines ( Figs. 29C View FIGURE 29 , 45C View FIGURE 45 , 57C View FIGURE 57 , 67C View FIGURE 67 , 74C View FIGURE 74 )............. 3
3. Carinae of the vertex not produced at all, and medial carina low ( Figs. 108B View FIGURE 108 , 120A View FIGURE 120 ). Frontal costa straight and scutellum narrow ( Figs. 102C View FIGURE 102 , 104C View FIGURE 104 , 105C View FIGURE 105 , 112C View FIGURE 112 )......................................................... Otumbini trib. nov.
- Carinae of the vertex produced in different levels, mostly conspicuous, with lateral carinae forming more or less pronounced horns and medial carina visibly compresso-elevated ( Figs. 1A View FIGURE 1 , 16B View FIGURE 16 , 29B View FIGURE 29 ). Frontal costa rounded or divergent, rarely straight ( Figs. 1D View FIGURE 1 , 16A View FIGURE 16 , 29A View FIGURE 29 ).................................................................................. 4
4. Vertex almost 1.5 times wider than the eye, medial carina not strongly expressed, and vertex usually concave ( Figs. 85E View FIGURE 85 , 86C View FIGURE 86 , 89C View FIGURE 89 ). Scutellum narrow ( Figs. 87C View FIGURE 87 , 91C View FIGURE 91 , 97A View FIGURE 97 ). Median carinae of pronotum slightly elevated in some sections, pronotal disc mostly flat but with mid-sized undulations ( Figs. 86A View FIGURE 86 , 89A View FIGURE 89 , 91A View FIGURE 91 , 96A View FIGURE 96 ). Most species slender and winged.............................................................................................. Garciaitettigini trib. nov.
- Vertex approximately two times (or more) wider than the eye, medial carina strongly expressed, and vertex convex ( Figs. 1D View FIGURE 1 , 16A View FIGURE 16 , 29A View FIGURE 29 ). Scutellum mostly wider (rarely narrow) ( Figs. 7A View FIGURE 7 , 22A View FIGURE 22 , 34A View FIGURE 34 ). Median carinae of pronotum arcuate, mostly forming a crest in different shapes ( Figs. 10B View FIGURE 10 , 16B View FIGURE 16 , 22B View FIGURE 22 ). Most species robust and apterous....................... Metrodorini
