Abstract

Two beetles, Ceratophila (Vovidesa) chipjonesi, new species, and Pharaxonotha perezi, new species, (Coleoptera: Erotylidae: Pharaxonothinae) are described from the male cones of the New World cycad Ceratozamia santillanii Pérez-Farr. & Vovides (Cycadales: Zamiaceae). Morphological analysis and keys are provided for distinguishing these from related beetles inhabiting Ceratozamia in Mexico.
