Abstract

A new species of Colobothea (Lamiinae: Colobotheini), Colobothea carlosi sp. nov. is described from Colombia. Five new country records for Colombia are provided: Callichroma gounellei Achard, 1910; Lagocheirus araneiformis parvulus Casey, 1913; Leptostylus batesi Casey, 1913; Steirastoma lituratum Bates, 1885 and Sangaris ordinale Monné & Monné, 2009. Additionally, 30 new departmental records are provided, expanding the geographical distribution knowledge for the department of Sucre on the Caribbean side of Colombia.
