This tool is designed to allow identification of Diabrotica species that originate from North and Central America to users lacking an expertise in taxonomy of Diabrotica. The tool treats and provides identification support for all North and Central American species of the genus recognized after our study. This includes newly proposed synonyms (Derunkov & Konstantinov in press) and species that are not yet described (Derunkov and Konstantinov in preparation). After all these changes we recognized 112 valid Diabrotica species and subspecies in North and Central America. Each species is fully illustrated, treated with a fact sheet, and included in the key.
