Genus Glaresis Erichson, 1848: 925 View in CoL

Type species. Glaresis rufa Erichson, 1848 , by monotypy.

Species covered. The species treated here are the South American species attributable to the Glaresis inducta group in Gordon & Hanley (2014). Although G. fritzi was noted at that time to be the only species in the group that possessed teeth on the metatrochanter and metafemur, both of the new species described here are similarly armed. They differ from all members of the species group except G. arenata Gordon from California, United States of America, in having the tubercles at the setal bases on the elytral striae more rounded than linear. The only change necessitated to the description of the species group to accommodate the new species is that the external median tooth of the mesotibia, referred to as a postmedian lateral protuberance, can no longer be considered to be present in all species.
