Abstract

The tenebrionid tribe Amphidorini LeConte from the state of Arizona is herein reviewed. Amphidorini is represented in Arizona by four genera. Trogloderus LeConte and Neobaphion Blaisdell are each represented by a single species, Embaphion Say by three species, and Eleodes Eschscholtz by 34 species. Keys for genus and species identification are provided along with species accounts containing diagnoses, distributional ranges, and images. A complementary on-line dynamic checklist, available on the Symbiota Collections of Arthropods Network (SCAN), is presented.
