A543879EFFB4FFBDFF24509C866EFDDD.taxon	materials_examined	Type species. Lepturges laetabilis Bates, 1872 The genus Sympagus was described by Bates (1881) for Lepturges laetabilis Bates, 1872 from Nicaragua. Tippmann (1960) described Sympagus favorabilis from Peru, and Monné (1985) transferred Nyssodrys buckleyi Bates, 1885 to Sympagus. Hovore & Toledo (2006) revised Sympagus, transferred Stenopsilus bimaculatus Gilmour, 1959 to the genus and described Sympagus cedrelis from Mexico and Sympagus monnei from Panama. Monné & Botero (2015) described Sympagus birai from Panama and provided a key to the species. Here we describe Sympagus cooperi sp. nov. from Ecuador, raising the number of species in the genus to eight.	en	Monné, Marcela L., Monné, Miguel A.

A543879EFFB4FFBDFF2452C58240F967.taxon	discussion	Comments. Sympagus cooperi Monné & Monné sp. nov. (Fig. 1) is similar to S. birai Monné & Botero, 2016, S. laetabilis (Bates, 1872) and S. cedrelis Hovore & Toledo, 2006 in having the pronotum with a dark-brown, median, longitudinal vitta, extending from the vertex to the elytral base, and a similar elytral coloration pattern. The new species differs from S. birai in the pronotum, which has a large round dark-brown spot on each side of the median vitta. It differs from S. laetabilis in having the prothorax armed with an acute, lateral tubercle situated in the posterior third; and differs from S. cedrelis in having the outer angle of the elytra strongly projected. In S. cedrelis the elytral apices are rotundate-truncate or feebly emarginate, and the outer angle is obtusely angulate, or at most, feebly dentate.	en	Monné, Marcela L., Monné, Miguel A.
