Abstract
Abstract. One new genus and three new species are described from Ecuador: Contractus setosus, gen. nov., sp. nov.; Contractus bicolor gen. nov., sp. nov.; and Rhopalophora rufipennis sp. nov. The new genus is included in a previous key of American Rhopalophorini. A key to South American species of Rhopalophora is provided. The shape of the scape of Rhopalophora pulverulenta Guérin-Méneville, 1844 and R. neivai Mendes, 1940 is discussed.
