Genus Pyesia Clark, 1865

Pyesia Clark, 1865: 260 (type species Galeruca laticornis Germar, 1823, by monotypy).

Remarks

After our transferal of two species to Pyesexora gen. nov., Pyesia now contains 13 described species. See Fig. 64 for a habitus illustration. However, Pyesia continues to be a heterogeneous assemblage of species. The following key will enable some of them to be identified as this genus, but perhaps not all of them. Future taxonomic investigation will probably lead to additional species being removed from Pyesia and transferred to other genera (some likely to Uaupesia Bechyné, 1957).
