Abstract

Numerical analyses were performed on three nominal species of the family Tristiridae. The synonymy existing between Philippiacris Liebermann and Elasmoderus Saussure is corroborated. Philippiacris rabiosus Liebermann is placed in synonymy under Elasmoderus lutescens (Blanchard) as a morphotype. The new combination Elasmoderus wagenknechti (Liebermann) is proposed, and a new species from Chile, Elasmoderus minutus, is erected.

Résumé

On a effectué des analyses numériques de trois espèces nominales de la famille des Tristiridae. La synonymie existante entre Philippiacris Liebermann et Elasmoderus Saussure est confirmée. Philippiacris rabiosus Liebermann est placé en synonymie sous Elasmoderus lutescens (Blanchard) comme morphotype. On propose la nouvelle combinaison Elasmoderus wagenknechti (Liebermann) et on décrit une nouvelle espèce du Chili, Elasmoderus minutus.
