Abstract

Larvae of the genera Chlorota Burmeister and Chasmodia Macleay (Scarabaeidae: Rutelinae: Rutelini) are described for the first time based on the larvae of Chlorota cincticollis Blanchard and Chasmodia collaris (Blanchard). The pupa of C. cincticollis is also described. A key to the larvae of 19 American genera of Rutelini and a list of the described species are provided.
