Abstract

The first record of Heterocerus woodruffi Pacheco, 1975 (Coleoptera: Heteroceridae) in Peru is presented. The discovery raises the number of Heteroceridae species in the Peruvian fauna to six. H. woodruffi has since been recorded in Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Paraguay, and now in Peru. The article features images of the male H. woodruffi and its aedeagus.
