Abstract

Falsoceratoprion pecki Ferreira and Ivie, new species from Cuba, is the first extant and second species of the genus Falsoceratoprion Ferreira, 2022. The new species is diagnosed, described, illustrated, and compared with the fossil species Falsoceratoprion fumagalliae Ferreira, 2022. A key to the West Indian Lycidae genera is provided. The record of Metapteron testaceipenne Pic, 1922 in Cuba is found to be incorrect and this species, along with the genus Metapteron Bourgeois, 1905, is removed from the West Indian fauna.
