Platyphora Gistel, 1857 from Itatiaia National Park, southeastern Brazil: new synonymy and new records (Insecta, Coleoptera, Chrysomelidae)Abstract
Platyphora Gistel, 1857 is the largest genus in Chrysomelinae with about 450 species of which 181 occur in Brazil. The Itatiaia National Park is one of the most important Conservation Units of the Atlantic Rainforest and 36 Platyphora species are recorded from the park. We have recorded 38 species of Platyphora. The synonymy of Platyphora fraterna (Stål, 1857) and Platyphora fasciatomaculata (Stål, 1857) is proposed. Platyphora bilimbata (Stål, 1857), P. carolina (Stål, 1858) and P. semiviridis (Jacoby, 1903) are new records for the park; additional distributional records are provided for 18 species. Of the 38 species, 24 are illustrated for the first time.

Resumo
Platyphora Gistel, 1857 é o gênero em Chrysomelinae com maior número de espécies, cerca de 450, onde 181 ocorrem no Brasil. O Parque Nacional do Itatiaia é uma das mais importantes unidades de conservação da Mata Atlântica e apresenta 36 espécies de Platyphora registradas. Neste trabalho registramos 38 espécies de Platyphora. É proposta a sinonímia entre Platyphora fraterna (Stål, 1857) e Platyphora fasciatomaculata (Stål, 1857). Platyphora bilimbata (Stål, 1857), P. carolina (Stål, 1858) e P. semiviridis (Jacoby, 1903) são novos registros para o parque e são assinalados novos registros de distribuição para 18 espécies. Das 38 espécies, 24 são ilustradas pela primeira vez.

Introduction
The family Chrysomelidae contains about 40,000 species in 12 subfamilies: Bruchinae, Cassidinae, Chryptocephalinae, Chrysomelinae, Criocerinae, Donaciinae, Eumolpinae, Galerucinae, Lamprosomatinae, Sagrinae, Spilopyrinae and Synetinae (Bouchard et al. 2011, Chaboo et al. 2014). Chrysomelinae consists of 150 genera and about 3,000 species, with 544 species recorded in Brazil (Chaboo et al. 2014, Reid 2014, Sekerka 2016). Platyphora Gistel, 1857 is among the most species-rich genera in Chrysomelinae, with about 450 species, 181 of them recorded for Brazil (Blackwelder 1946, Daccordi 1994, Sekerka 2016, Sampaio & Monné 2017).
Itatiaia National Park (PNI) is the oldest national park in Brazil, established in 1937, and one of the most important Conservation Units of the Atlantic Rainforest (ICMBio 2013). The Atlantic Rainforest is one of the most relevant eco-regions in the world, a biodiversity hotspot, and is considered one of the most threatened biomes on the planet (Morellato & Haddad 2000). Concerning the beetle fauna in the PNI, knowledge of the species of Chrysomelinae is limited. A single paper published by Zikán & Zikán (1967) listed 77 species of Chrysomelinae; of these, 34 are members of Platyphora. Of these species, two were synonymized by Bechyné (1948, 1950a) and five species and one subspecies had previously been recorded for the park: P. notaticollis (Stål, 1858), P. congener (Stål, 1858), P. manhumirima Bechyné, 1958, P. pastica bourcieri (Guérin-Méneville, 1855), P. placida (Stål, 1858) and P. quadrisignata (Germar, 1823) (Bechyné 1951a, Bechyné & Bechyné 1965). Sampaio & Monné (2017) proposed the synonymy of Platyphora cliens (Stål, 1858) and Platyphora congener (Stål, 1858). Thirty-six species of Platyphora are recorded for the PNI.
This contribution presents a revision of the literature on Platyphora species from Itatiaia National Park, providing new distribution data and illustrations of the species. This information gives us a better understanding of which species are being protected within the national park.
Material and Methods
The Itatiaia National Park (PNI) is located between 22º19’-22º45’ S and 044º15’-044º50’ W, and covers part of southwestern Rio de Janeiro, in the county of Itatiaia, and southeastern Minas Gerais, in the counties of Itamonte, Alagoa and Bocaina de Minas. The park is surrounded by the Mantiqueira Range Environmental Protection Area, which provides an ecological buffer zone for the park (ICMBio 2013).

The species were identified based on the original description, redescriptions, and by comparition with type material. In total, 842 specimens and photographs of 22 types (11 holotypes and 11 syntypes), provided by the curators of the respective collections, and the paratype of P. manhumirima Bechyné, 1958 from MZSP were studied. The list of species is presented in alphabetical order, and all references are included in a catalog list, with the information presented in the following format: author, publication year, and page. This is followed by the type of study, indicated by one of the following abbreviations: biological data (biol.); catalogue (cat.); geographical distribution (distr.); host plant (host); key to aberration (key ab.); checklist online (check.) and synonym (syn.).
Results
Of the 36 species of Platyphora previously recorded for Itatiaia National Park, P. fulgora (Stål, 1858) was erroneously recorded by Zikán & Zikán (1967); this species occurs only in Colombia. A total of 38 species of Platyphora are recorded for the park. The synonymy of Platyphora fraterna (Stål, 1857) and Platyphora fasciatomaculata (Stål, 1857) is proposed. Platyphora bilimbata (Stål, 1857), P. carolina (Stål, 1858) and P. semiviridis (Jacoby, 1903) are new records for the PNI, and new additional records are provided for 18 species. The study of P. nigripes (Stål, 1857) and P. vidanoi Daccordi, 1994 were restricted to the literature, and of P. jucunda (Stål, 1857) to photographs of the type. Of the 38 species, 24 are illustrated for the first time; and a complete list of bibliographic references for the species is also provided for the first time.

The original descriptions of Doryphora fraterna Stål, 1857 and Doryphora fasciatomaculata Stål, 1857 are very similar, and only some differences were related to the color of the dorsum. Comparisons of photographs of the syntypes of D. fraterna (Figures 3D-3I) and of the holotype of D. fasciatomaculata (Figures 3K-3M), and the comparative examination of 77 specimens helped us to determine that the differences between these taxa are due only to intraspecific variation (Figures 3D-4A). Also, the male genitalia of specimens from various localities (Minas Gerais, Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo, Santa Catarina and Rio Grande do Sul) were dissected and no differences were observed. Therefore, Doryphora fasciatomaculata is here considered a synonym of Doryphora fraterna.
