New synonymy is proposed as follows: Pityophthorus Eichhoff ( = Pityophthoroides Blackman), Scolytodes Ferrari ( = Ctenophorus Chapuis), Araptus pallidus (Blackman), n. comb. (? = Neodryocoetes portoricensis Schedl, Neodryocoetes devius Schedl), Corthylus letzneri (Ferrari) ( = Corthylus strigilatus Eggers, Corthylus columbianus Schedl, Corthylus ater Schedl), Corthylus spinifer Schwarz ( = Corthylus guayanensis Eggers), Hypothenemus brunneus (Hopkins) ( = Hypothenemus cryphalomorphus Schedl, Stephanoderes bituberculatus Eggers), Monarthrum parvum (Eggers) ( = Monarthrum praeclarum Wood), Phloeoborus punctatorugosus Chapuis ( = Phloeoborus breviusculus Chapuis), Phloeotribus pilula Erichson ( = Phloeotribus australis Schedl), Phloeotribus setulosus Eichhoff (Phloeotribus dubius Eichhoff, Phloeotribus spinipennis Eggers), Pityophthorus, pulicarius (Zimmermann) ( = Pityophthorus cubensis Schedl), Pityophthorus subsimilis Schedl ( = Pityophthorus subimpressus Bright), Premnobius cavipennis Eichhoff ( = Premnobius latior Eggers), Scolytus propiguus Blandford ( = Scolytus penicillus Schedl), Xyleborus dryographus (Ratzeburg) ( = Xyleborus linearis Schedl), Xyleborus horridus Eichhoff ( = Xyleborus flohri Schedl).Xyleborus tonsus (Hagedom), n. comb., was transferred to Xyleborus from Dryocoetes. Pityophthorus aquilus Blackman and Pityophthorus cascoensis Blackman, n. status, were removed from synonymy. Scolytodes chapuisi, n. n., is proposed for Scolytodes ( = Ctenophorus) laevigatus Chapuis, 1869 (nec Ferrari 1867). The following species are named as new to science: Araptus crassus (Panama), A. obesus (Brazil), Cnesinus prominulus (Mexico), Conophthorus conicolens (Mexico), Microcorthylus vicinus (Mexico), Pityophthorus alnicolens (Mexico), P. assitus (Mexico), P. concinnus (Mexico), P. indigens (Colorado), P. leechi (California), P. solatus (Mexico), P. speciosus (Mexico), Pseudopityophthorus denticulus (Texas), Pseudothysanoes securus (Mexico), P. turnbowi (Texas), Pycnarthrum fulgidum (Colombia), Scolytodes fulmineus (Venezuela), S. radiatus (Costa Rica), Xyleborinus tribuloides (Mexico), Xyleborus devexus (Florida, Puerto Rico), and X. laticeps (Venezuela).
