          Abstract

          Foi realizada uma análise comparativa com base na morfologia detalhada do adulto de sete gêneros: Caryedes Hummel, 1827, Ctenocolum Kingsolver & Whitehead, 1974, Gibbobruchus Pic, 1913, Meibomeus Bridwell, 1946, Merobruchus Bridwell, 1946, Penthobruchus Kingsolver, 1973 e Pygiopachymerus Pic, 1911), reunidos no agrupamento Merobruchus. Esse grupo está incluído em Acanthoscelidina Bridwell, maior subtribo de Bruchinae, e com limites imprecisos. Este estudo possibilitou descrever novos caracteres, levantar uma nova hipótese de relacionamento entre os gêneros, e apresentar uma diagnose para o grupo e seus gêneros, além de uma chave dicotômica. Também foi possível registrar pela primeira vez para o Brasil Caryedes godmani (Sharp, 1885) e C. longifrons (Sharp, 1885) e Dioclea virgata (Rich.) Amshoff (Papilionoideae) como uma nova planta hospedeira para C. godmani.

          Translated abstract

          A comparative analysis was carried out based on the detailed morphology of adults of seven genera: Caryedes Hummel, 1827, Ctenocolum Kingsolver & Whitehead, 1974, Gibbobruchus Pic, 1913, Meibomeus Bridwell, 1946, Merobruchus Bridwell, 1946, Penthobruchus Kingsolver, 1973, and Pygiopachymerus Pic, 1911, joined in the Merobruchus group. This group is included in Acanthoscelidina Bridwell, the largest subtribe of Bruchinae, and with imprecise limits. This study describes new characters, suggests a new hypothesis for the relationships among the genera, proposes diagnoses of the group and its genera, and provides a dichotomous key. It was also possible to record Caryedes godmani (Sharp, 1885) and Caryedes longifrons (Sharp, 1885) for the first time from Brazil and Dioclea virgata (Rich.) Amshoff (Papilionoideae) as a new host plant for C. godmani.
