Synonyms:
Colaspis is a genus of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae. It is one of the largest genera in the subfamily, containing over 200 species, and it is known from both North and South America. A number of species from this genus are considered to be pests, such as the grape colaspis. Some species are known from the fossil record from the Eocene of Colorado in the United States.
Paria is a genus of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae. There are about 40 described species in Paria in North and South America, 19 of which are known north of Mexico. The genus is very similar to Typophorus.
Rhabdopterus is a genus of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae. There are about 70 described species in Rhabdopterus from North and South America, eight of which are found north of Mexico. The Nearctic species may not be congeneric with the type species, which is South American.
Spintherophyta is a genus of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae. Most species in the genus are found in Central and South America, but there are also a few North American species.
Typophorus is a genus of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae. There are at least 52 described species in Typophorus. Similar genera include Paria and Tijucana. Typophorus itself is probably polyphyletic.
Prionodera is a genus of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae. It is known from Central and South America.
Metaxyonycha is a genus of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae.
Alethaxius is a genus of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae. It is distributed from Mexico to northern South America, and it is also found in the West Indies. The genus was originally named Aletes by Félicien Chapuis in 1874. However, this name was preoccupied by Aletes Carpenter, 1857, so the genus was renamed to Alethaxius by Édouard Lefèvre in 1885. According to Flowers (1996), it is very likely that Alethaxius is polyphyletic and represents at least three different genera.
Percolaspis is a genus of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae. It is distributed in South America and Central America, though it has also been reported from southern Florida in the United States. It is associated with the plant families Rubiaceae and Fabaceae in Central America.
Freudeita is a genus of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae. They are found in South America. The genus is dedicated to the German entomologist Heinz Freude.
Antitypona is a genus of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae. They are found in Central America and South America.
Nycterodina is a genus of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae. It is known from South America.
Chalcophana is a genus of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae.
Nodocolaspis is a genus of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae. They are known from Central America and South America. The genus was first established by the Czech entomologist Jan Bechyné in 1949, as a relative of Nodonota containing species formerly placed in Colaspis.
Endocephalus is a genus of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae. They are distributed in South America.
