The genus Lygofuscanellus Scudder is redefined and the status of the stridulitrum as a taxonomic character discussed. A key to species is included. Two new species, L. elegans and L. ozophoroides, are described from South and Central America. Ozophora baliocoris Slater is transferred to Lygofuscanellus. The type species of Lygofuscanellus (alboannulata Champion) is redescribed and additional distributional data given. Dorsal views of L. alboannulatus and L. elegans are included.
