Abstract:

Three species of Brueelia from the Picidae are recognized and discussed; two of which are newly discribed: B. goertae from Mesopicos goertae; and B. guatemalensis from Phloeoceastes guatemalensis. Nirmus supercilosus Nitzsch, is placed in Picicola not Brueelia, in which it was included by Hopkins and Clay (1952: 62). Specimens from 8 genera and 15 species of Picidae were examined. A key is given and all species are illustrated.
