Tachistodes Casey, 1914: 286. Type species: Acupalpus pauperculus Dejean, 1829 designated by Lindroth (1968: 934). Etymology. Uncertain, possibly from the generic name Tachys [q.v.] and the Greek - odes (likeness), alluding to the resemblance of adults of the species included by Casey in this group to those of Tachys [masculine].

Four North American species, one of them extending into the Bahamas.
