Key to determine Renda View in CoL from related genera (modified from Asiain et al., 2007)
1. Lateral border of head (temple) forming lateroventral furrow ( Figs. 19 View FIGURES 11–19 , 54 View FIGURES 53–61 ); ventral surface with expanded, umbilicate punctures ( Fig. 21 View FIGURES 20–24 ); elytral hind margin with depression or notch ( Fig. 59 View FIGURES 53–61 ) ........................... Plochionocerus View in CoL
1’. Lateral border of head (temple) without lateroventral furrows (convex; Figs. 25–29 View FIGURES 25–34 ); with superior temporal carina (at superior level of eye) and/or inferior temporal carina (at inferior level of eye) delimiting flattened or concave internal area ( Figs. 30–34 View FIGURES 25–34 ); ventral surface lacking expanded, umbilicate punctures; elytral hind margin without depression or notch....................................................................................................................................... 2
2(1’). Head elongate, more than 1.5x as long as wide (1.54–2.00x); prosternum slightly elongate (length/width ratio 1.04–1.20); pronotal hypomeron with fine, sparse setae throughout or in posterior 2/3 ( Fig. 57 View FIGURES 53–61 ); tibiae with brush of pale setae in their basal half or in their basal 2/3 ( Fig. 60 View FIGURES 53–61 ); body blue or green metallic color ................ Agrodes View in CoL
2’. Head oval, elongate or quadrate, less than 1.5x as long as wide; prosternum transverse (length/width ratio 0.65– 0.88); pronotal hypomeron with fine, sparse setae in anterior third ( Fig. 58 View FIGURES 53–61 ); tibiae with brush of pale setae in all lateral borders ( Fig. 61 View FIGURES 53–61 ); body shiny black, except in five species with green, blue or metallic reflections on body ...........................................................................................................................................................................
