The species does not fit in any previously proposed species-group of Scolytocis . Here, we propose the Sc. insularis species-group to encompass this single species, the group defined by the combination of the following features: biconcave prosternum; outer edge of metatibiae slightly rounded, without a clear distinction between outer and apical edges. The prosternum is also biconcave in species of the Scolytocis danielssoni and the Scolytocis fritzplaumanni species-groups. However, in the Sc. danielssoni species-group the species are comparatively larger and have a rugose border along the posterior pronotal edge. In the Sc. fritzplaumanni group the species are also larger than Sc. insularis and bear a smooth border along the posterior pronotal edge. Metatibiae with slightly rounded outer edge are also seen in species of the Scolytocis bouchardi and the Scolytocis lawrencei species-group, but they have triconcave and tumid prosternum, respectively, and are exclusively neotropical.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/22905A8414B2517C9D6F3D7EDEC07344	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
