Nineteen new species of Cymatodera Gray are described: C. mexicana, C. cicatricula, C. matehualacaligoides, C. brailovskyi, C. durangoensis, C. monticola, C. paucipunctata, C. anulata, C. christina, C. copei, C. oxchuc, C. merickeli, C. romeroi, C. cellulosa, and C. acutipennis from México; C. doda from México, Nicaragua and Costa Rica; C. carinipennis from México and Guatemala; C. rileyi from México, Honduras, and Belize, and C. wilsoni from Costa Rica. These species are figured, along with the type of C. kolbei Schenkling, and a lectotype is designated for the latter. I include a brief discussion on the prevalence and evolution of brachyptery in Cymatodera.
本文描述了19种新的隐翅虫属（Cymatodera Gray）物种：来自墨西哥的墨西哥隐翅虫（C. mexicana）、瘢痕隐翅虫（C. cicatricula）、马特瓦拉卡隐翅虫相似种（C. matehualacaligoides）、布拉伊洛夫斯基隐翅虫（C. brailovskyi）、杜兰戈隐翅虫（C. durangoensis）、山地隐翅虫（C. monticola）、少点隐翅虫（C. paucipunctata）、环纹隐翅虫（C. anulata）、克里斯蒂娜隐翅虫（C. christina）、科普隐翅虫（C. copei）、奥克斯楚克隐翅虫（C. oxchuc）、梅里克利隐翅虫（C. merickeli）、罗梅罗隐翅虫（C. romeroi）、纤维素隐翅虫（C. cellulosa）和尖翅隐翅虫（C. acutipennis）；来自墨西哥、尼加拉瓜和哥斯达黎加的多达隐翅虫（C. doda）；来自墨西哥和危地马拉的隆脊隐翅虫（C. carinipennis）；来自墨西哥、洪都拉斯和伯利兹的莱利隐翅虫（C. rileyi），以及来自哥斯达黎加的威尔逊隐翅虫（C. wilsoni）。文中对这些物种进行了图示，并展示了申克林隐翅虫（C. kolbei Schenkling）的模式标本，同时为后者指定了一个选模标本。此外，本文还对隐翅虫属中短翅现象的普遍性和进化进行了简要讨论。
