Revisiting pollinating Cyclocephala scarab beetles (Coleoptera: Melolonthidae: Dynastinae) associated with the soursop (Annona muricata, Annonaceae).

The soursop (Annona muricata L., Annonaceae) is an important fruit crop in several countries of South America, including Brazil, and the presence of the scarab beetles in this orchads can reduce pollination deficits and increase the productivity. For this reason, we report Cyclocephala celata Dechambre, 1980 as a flower visitor and potential pollinator of the soursop. Additionally, this work presents an updated list of Cyclocephala species found on A. muricata, corrects some misidentifications, and provides comments and an identification key for all taxa cited as floral visitors of this crop.
