| - The 13 species of Anthonominae assigned to the genus Loncophorus Chevrolat are hypothesized to form a monophyletic group on the basis of morphological characters of the adult weevils and host plant relationships. Other adult morphological characters are cited as evidence supporting a hypothesis of phylogenetic relationships among the species. The genus Loncophorus is limited in geographical distribution to the Neotropical region and appears to be restricted to hosts in the plant family Bombacaceae. Characters by which members of the genus are distinguished from other Anthonominae and diagnoses and descriptions of each of the species, as well as a key and illustrations, are presented as aids for identification. Four new species, L. costalimai (Brazil), L. crossi (Mexico), L. martinsi (French Guiana, Brazil, Paraguay) and L. myrmecodes (Panama) are described. Anthonomus santarosae Clark is newly placed in Loncophorus as L. santarosae (Clark [1986]), new combination. A neotype is designated for L. daviesii (Swederus). Lectotypes are designated for L. obliquus Chevrolat, L. humeralis Chevrolat, L. petiminosus Germar, L. chevrolati Gyllenhal, L. fortis (Champion) and L. fusiformis (Champion). The name Loncophorus marshalli Costa Lima is placed in new synonymy under L. obliquus Chevrolat, and L. fluminensis Costa Lima is placed in new synonmy under L. pustulatus (Champion [1903]). Loncophorus verruciger Champion is transferred to Atractomerus as A. verruciger (Champion), new combination.
