GeografÃ-a e Informática Map 1. Mexican Alticinae diversity per State tending into the Neotropical Region. Neothona Bechyné is clearly a Neotropical element. Paranaita Bechyné is a South American genus previously only known as far north as Panama and its distribution this far north is somewhat surprising, more detailed and verification of the Mexican distribution records would be useful. Nesaecrepida Blake has an apparent Caribbean (Neotropical) affinity and the record in this study of the type species N. asphaltina in the Yucatan demonstrates the Caribbean affinities ofthat part of Mexico. Exoceras Jacoby is particularly widely distributed even through- out many Caribbean islands in almost an arc from the northern South American continent. Given the extent of the known distribution of all of the above genera it is not really surprising to find them also in Mexico. The most unusual distribution with no obvious explanation is Terpnochloms Fainnaire represented in Mexico by T. americana, also known from Venezuela, but the genus has a very strange disjunct distribution and is also in Madagascar, central and southern Africa. Among the other genera listed from Mexico in the Ap- pendix the majority are of primarily Neotropical affin- ity. Genera such as Alfica Geoffroy, Chaetocnema Stephens, Dibolia Latreille, Epitrix
