Demotina is a genus of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae. [4] [5] [6] [7] There are over 50 described species in Demotina. The genus is native to Asia, Australia and Oceania, though one species ( Demotina modesta ) is an adventive species in the southeastern United States in North America. [7] Some species are known to be parthenogenetic. [8]

Contents

Species of Demotina described from Fiji and Vanuatu differ from the Asian species by the presence of emarginations on the middle and hind legs, a characteristic of the Typophorini. Because of this and other differences, the species from Fiji and Vanuatu are provisionally transferred to the genus Parademotina by Gómez-Zurita (2024). [9]

Species

These species belong to the genus Demotina:

Asian species: [10] [11] [12] [8]

Australian species:

Oceanian (Fiji/Vanuatu) species: [31] [32] [33] [34]
