Description

Anidrytus Gerstaecker, 1858: 256.

Type species: Anidrytus bipunctatus Gerstaecker, 1858.

This genus contains 54 species distributed from México to South America (Strohecker 1997). The reported distribution in México is restricted to the southern states of Chiapas and Yucatan. Very little is known about the biology of the Mexican species; one specimen of A. mexicanus Strohecker was collected in a bromelid plant. Although Strohecker (1997) made a catalogue of all known species, he did not provide a key for their identification, which is mainly based on a comparison of male genitalia. McHugh & Pakaluk (1997) described immature stages. Two species in México, and probably one unnamed species.
