After examination of specimens in collections, the <em>D. agenor</em> species group will consist of seventeen species, a leap from the former nine species: <em>D. agenor</em> (Harold, 1869), <em>D. amplicollis</em> (Harold, 1869), <em>D. belus</em> (Harold, 1880), <em>D. centralis</em> (Harold, 1869), <em>D. deyrollei</em> (Harold, 1869), <em>D. sagittarius</em> (Harold, 1869) stat. rev., <em>D. tristis</em> (Luederwaldt, 1923), <em>D. triquetrus</em> (Luederwaldt, 1923), <em>D. validipilosus</em> (Luederwaldt, 1931), <em>D. fornicatus</em> (Luederwaldt, 1931) [transferred to <em>D. lucasi</em> species group and to which <em>D. bosqi</em> (Pereira, 1941) is considered to be a new synonym], <em>D. inachoides</em> (Felsche, 1901) [transferred from the group <em>fisus</em> (<em>Selenocopris</em>)], <em>D. simplicicornis</em> (Luederwaldt, 1935) [transferred from the group <em>fisus</em> (<em>Selenocopris</em>)], <em>D. subaeneus</em> (Castelnau, 1840) [transferred from the <em>D. carbonarius</em> species group], <em>D. rafanunezi</em> sp. nov. from Mato Grosso, <em>D. henripittieri</em> sp. nov. from Venezuela and <em>D. enioi</em> sp. nov. from Guatemala and Costa Rica. This review was based on external morphology and characters of the male genitalia (aedeagus and internal sac). Descriptions of new species and redescriptions were made after examining the type-specimens of the already described species. Lectotype designations, species revalidations, redescriptions and new species descriptions are provided.</p>}, number={1}, journal={European Journal of Taxonomy}, author={Montoya-Molina, Santiago and Vaz-de-Mello, Fernando Z.}, year={2021}, month={Feb.}, pages={1-64} }
