Abstract: The taxa of Clythra Fabricius, 1798 (nowadays Clytra Laicharting, 1781)
introduced by Carl Peter Forsberg (1821a) are reviewed. The primary type
specimens of all species were examined. Mastostethus ruficauda (Forsberg, 1821),
comb. nov. is transferred as a valid species to Megalopodidae. The following new
synonymies are proposed: Clytra duodecimmaculata duodecimmaculata (Fabricius,
1781) = Clythra gigas Forsberg, 1821, syn. nov.; Coptocephala plagiocephala
(Fabricius, 1792) = Clythra bipunctata Forsberg, 1821, syn. nov.; Tituboea
biguttata (Olivier, 1791) = Clythra sexpunctata Forsberg, 1821, syn. nov.;
Tituboea macropus (Illiger, 1800) = Clythra coalita Forsberg, 1821, syn. nov.;
Tituboea octopunctata (Fabricius, 1787) = Clythra quadrisignata Forsberg, 1821,
syn. nov. Colour photographs of all taxa described by Forsberg are also
provided.
