Species of Simopelta View in CoL View at ENA

Mackay & Mackay (2008) revised the genus and provide a key to species, while Longino (2013) provides a key to Costa Rican species, including many that are undescribed. The large number of new Simopelta species from Costa Rica alone suggests that the true species diversity of the genus is much greater than presently known.
