Abstract:
The genus Oreophoetes Rehn, 1904, is revised. Diagnoses are given for all species included and synonyms are listed. Bacteria nigripes Scudder, 1875, is reduced to a subspecies of O. peruana (Saussure, 1868). A lectotype is designated for Bacteria peruana Saussure, 1868. The egg of Oreophoetes mima (Giglio-Tos, 1898) is described for the first time. A new genus and species of this tribe from Northern Peru, Oreophoetophasma hennemanni. gen. n., sp. n., is described.
