The tribe Macrodactylini (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae: Melolonthinae) is reviewed from southern South America. A total of 13 genera and 33 species were found in the study area consisting of Argentina from Neuquén south and Chile from IV Región de Coquimbo south. The following three new genera are described: Extenuoptyophis, Insimuloissacaris, and Neuquenodactylus. The following 11 new species are described: Ampliodactylus elguetai, Ampliodactylus guinezi, Ampliodactylus inusitus, Ampliodactylus panguipullensis, Extenuoptyophis horridulus, Extenuoptyophis metropolitensis, Insimuloissacaris nahuelbutensis, Issacaris falsa, Issacaris sola, Neuquenodactylus ramus, and Phytholaema fenestra. The species Schizochelus modestus Philippi, 1861 is transferred to the genus Ampliodactylus. Lectotypes are designated for the following five species-group names (species names given in their original combination): Dicrania aeneobrunnea Philippi, 1861, Modialis prasinella Fairmaire & Germain, 1860, Phytholaema elaphocera Redtenbacher, 1868, Phytholaema herrmanni Germain, 1901, and Schizochelus modestus Philippi, 1861. Neotypes are designated for the following four species-group names (species names given in their original combination): Acanthosternum splendens Philippi, 1861, Areoda mutabilis Solier, 1851, Issacaris petalophora Fairmaire, 1889, and Phytholaema flavipes Philippi, 1861. The genera Modialis Fairmaire & Germain, 1860 and Phytholaema Blanchard, 1851 are here transferred to the tribe Macrodactylini. The species-group names Phytholaema pallida Saylor, 1937 and Phytholaema peccans Blackwelder, 1944 are placed in synonymy with Phytholaema herrmanni Germain, 1901. Descriptions or diagnoses, keys, and distributional data are given for all species.
对南美洲南部的巨爪鳃金龟族(鞘翅目:金龟科:鳃金龟亚科)进行了综述。在研究区域(包括内乌肯省以南的阿根廷和科金博大区四以南的智利)共发现13个属和33个物种。描述了以下3个新属:细弱爪鳃金龟属、拟隐鳃金龟属和内乌肯爪鳃金龟属。描述了以下11个新物种:埃尔盖塔巨爪鳃金龟、吉内兹巨爪鳃金龟、奇异巨爪鳃金龟、潘吉普尔巨爪鳃金龟、粗野细弱爪鳃金龟、大都会细弱爪鳃金龟、纳韦尔瓦皮拟隐鳃金龟、假隐鳃金龟、孤立隐鳃金龟、分支内乌肯爪鳃金龟和窗斑植鳃金龟。1861年的菲氏适度裂爪鳃金龟被转移到巨爪鳃金龟属。为以下5个物种组名称(物种名称以其原始组合给出)指定了选模:1861年的青铜褐双角鳃金龟、1860年的草绿饰鳃金龟、1868年的鹿角植鳃金龟、1901年的赫尔曼植鳃金龟和1861年的菲氏适度裂爪鳃金龟。为以下4个物种组名称(物种名称以其原始组合给出)指定了新模:1861年的华丽棘胸鳃金龟、1851年的多变阿雷奥鳃金龟、1889年的花瓣隐鳃金龟和1861年的黄足植鳃金龟。1860年的饰鳃金龟属和1851年的植鳃金龟属在此被转移到巨爪鳃金龟族。1937年的苍白植鳃金龟和1944年的有害植鳃金龟这两个物种组名称被置于1901年的赫尔曼植鳃金龟的异名之下。给出了所有物种的描述或诊断、检索表和分布数据。
