The differences between Estoloides Breuning, 1940, Tigrinestola Breuning, 1949, and Pseudestoloides Breuning & Heyrovsky, 1961 are discussed. A lectotype for Lypsimena tigrina Skinner, 1905 is designated. A new genus and two new species are described from Mexico: Tigrinestola nearnsi sp. nov., and Allotigrinestola sundbergi, gen. nov., sp. nov. A key to the four genera treated in this work, as well as to species of Tigrinestola are presented.
讨论了1940年的埃斯托洛德属(Estoloides Breuning)、1949年的虎纹埃斯托洛德属(Tigrinestola Breuning)和1961年的拟埃斯托洛德属(Pseudestoloides Breuning & Heyrovsky)之间的差异。指定了1905年斯金纳(Skinner)的虎纹丽步甲(Lypsimena tigrina)的选模标本。描述了来自墨西哥的一个新属和两个新物种:新物种纳恩斯氏虎纹埃斯托洛德(Tigrinestola nearnsi sp. nov.),以及新属新物种桑德贝里氏异虎纹埃斯托洛德(Allotigrinestola sundbergi, gen. nov., sp. nov.)。给出了本研究中涉及的四个属以及虎纹埃斯托洛德属各物种的检索表。
