Key to New World Tillinae genera updated and modified from Opitz (2002)

1. Frons with a pair of protruding horns arising immediately above eyes................................ Bostrichoclerus View in CoL

- Frons without a pair of horns............................................................................ 2

2. Last antennomere as long as to much longer than length of preceding antennomeres combined ( Fig. 1 View FIGURE 1 -E); eyes strongly emar- ginate...................................................................................... Monophylla View in CoL

- Last antennomere not enlarged, never as long as or longer than the length of preceding antennomeres combined, all antennom- eres approximately the same length ( Figs. 1 View FIGURE 1 A–D, 1-F); eyes emarginate ( Figs. 2 View FIGURE 2 -C, 2-D) or not....................... 3

3. Head subquadrate, enlarged; clypeus conspicuously wide; antennomeres 5–11 or 6–11 subquadrate, conspicuously wider than antennomeres 1–4 ( Fig. 1 View FIGURE 1 -G) or 1–5 ( Fig. 1 View FIGURE 1 -H); body relatively slender; elytra subparallel; integument smooth to glossy................................................................................................... Cylidrus

- Head not subquadrate, if conspicuously enlarged throughout its length, distal antennomeres approximately the same width as remaining antennomeres ( Figs. 1 View FIGURE 1 -A, 1-B, 1-D); body slender to robust; elytra subparallel or not; integument smooth to coarsely punctate............................................................................................. 4

4. Antennae strongly serrate ( Fig. 1 View FIGURE 1 -D) to pectinate ( Fig. 1 View FIGURE 1 -C).................................................... 5

- Antennae filiform ( Fig. 1 View FIGURE 1 -A) to moderately serrate ( Fig. 1 View FIGURE 1 -B)................................................... 7

5. Last antennomere as preceding antennomere in shape; antennomeres 4–10 strongly serrate ( Fig. 1 View FIGURE 1 -D); length of specimens approximately 10 mm or more...................................................................... Bogcia View in CoL

- Last antennomere flattened laterally, ovoid; antennomeres 4–9 or 4–10 moderately serrate ( Fig. 1 View FIGURE 1 -F) to pectinate ( Fig. 1 View FIGURE 1 -C); length of specimens less than 8 mm ....................................................................... 6

6. Antennae composed of 11 antennomeres ( Figs. 1 View FIGURE 1 -F).................................................. Barrotillus

- Antennae composed of 10 antennomeres ( Fig. 1 View FIGURE 1 -C)................................................... Callotillus View in CoL

7. Tarsal claws with one inner denticle (see Figs. 41, 44, 51 in Opitz, 2002)................................ Onychotillus

8. Basal denticle of tarsal claw digitiform in shape (see Fig. 28 in Opitz, 2002)............................ Araeodontia View in CoL

- Basal denticle of tarsal claw triangular in shape (see Figs. 27, 29 in Opitz, 2002)................................... 9

9. Elytral punctations coarse, extending to apex ( Fig. 3 View FIGURE 3 -B)............................................... Lecontella View in CoL

- Elytral punctations feebly to moderately coarse, not extending to apex ( Fig. 3 View FIGURE 3 -A); if punctations extend to apex, then these are shallow and feebly impressed.......................................................................... 10

10. Diameter of ommatidia narrow ( Figs. 2 View FIGURE 2 -A, 2-B); integument in two colors: testaceous to ferruginous and brunneous to black; eyes weakly emarginate and elongate-ovoid, in lateral view much taller than wide ( Fig. 2 View FIGURE 2 -B); small species, length less than 8 mm ...................................................................................... Cymatoderella View in CoL

- Diameter of ommatidia wide ( Figs. 2 View FIGURE 2 -C, 2-D); integument unicolored to variously colored; eyes weakly to moderately emarginate, in lateral view form variable, ranging from much taller than wide to almost round ( Fig. 2 View FIGURE 2 -D); species 4–40 mm in length.....................................................................................
