Family Chrysomelidae

The leaf beetles

reviewed and corrected by E.G. Riley, June 1993, February 1997; with additions by R.W. Flowers, July 1995

Blatchley (1923-1924) first published lists of Florida leaf beetles and a few records of their host plants. The following list for Florida was compiled from the list of J. Wilcox in Arnett's NABFP 1983 Checklist, plus additional records from more recent literature and from specimens in various collections as noted. The taxonomic arrangement follows that of Lawrence and Newton (1995). Flowers et al. (1994) have added data on more species and their host plants. Blatchley (1923-24) recorded 268 species and 15 varieties from the state. Balsbaugh and Hays (1972) recorded 342 species and subspecies from Alabama. We here record 378 species (excluding the Bruchinae) from Florida, of which 45 are considered to be endemic and seven are immigrant species.
