Colaspis Diduma
''Colaspis'' is a genus of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae. It is one of the largest genera in the subfamily, containing over 200 species, and it is known from both North and South America. A number of species from this genus are considered to be pests, such as the grape colaspis ('' Colaspis brunnea''). Some species are known from the fossil record from the Eocene of Colorado in the United States. Taxonomy In some publications for the Neotropical realm, ''Colaspis'' is also known as ''Maecolaspis''. This alternative name was created by the Czech entomologist Jan Bechyné in 1950, due to an error relating to the type species of ''Colaspis'': Bechyné incorrectly considered ''Colaspis testacea'' to be the type species of ''Colaspis'', rather than ''Chrysomela flavicornis''. As a result, '' Metaxyonycha'', which shared the same type species, was synonymised with ''Colaspis''.

Johan Christian Fabricius
Johann Christian Fabricius (7 January 1745 – 3 March 1808) was a Danish zoologist, specialising in "Insecta", which at that time included all arthropods: insects, arachnids, crustaceans and others. He was a student of Carl Linnaeus, and is considered one of the most important entomologists of the 18th century, having named nearly 10,000 species of animals, and established the basis for the modern insect classification. Biography Johann Christian Fabricius was born on 7 January 1745 at Tønder in the Duchy of Schleswig, where his father was a doctor. He studied at the gymnasium at Altona and entered the University of Copenhagen in 1762. Later the same year he travelled together with his friend and relative Johan Zoëga to Uppsala, where he studied under Carl Linnaeus for two years. On his return, he started work on his , which was finally published in 1775. Throughout this time, he remained dependent on subsidies from his father, who worked as a consultant at Frederiks H ...

Zenocolaspis
''Zenocolaspis'' is a genus of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae. It is known from North America and South America. There are at least two described species in ''Zenocolaspis''. The genus is very similar to '' Colaspis'' (also known as ''Maecolaspis''), but the body is smaller and the eyes are strongly convex and prominent externally. The genus was established by the Czech entomologist Jan Bechyné in a monograph titled "Evaluación de los datos sobre los Phytophaga dañinos en Venezuela (Coleoptera)" before his death in 1973, but the work (including the description of the genus) was unpublished until October 1997. However, as early as 1968 it was indicated that some species from ''Colaspis'' had been moved to ''Zenocolaspis'', before the formal description of the latter was published.
