Descrição
Resumo:The type collection of the superfamilies Scarabaeoidea, Buprestoidea, Byrrhoidea, Elateroidea, Cleroidea, Cucujoidea, Tenebrionoidea (except Tenebrionidae family), Chrysomeloidea and Curculionoidea (Coleoptera) deposited in the Natural Sciences Museum of Barcelona, Spain, has been organised, revised and documented. It contains 533 type specimens belonging to 170 different taxa. Of note is the considerable number of species of different families described by Francesc Español, and specimens from the Curculionidae family described by Manuel González. In this paper we provide all the available information related to these type specimens, giving the following information for each taxon, species and subspecies: the original and current taxonomic status, original citation of type materials, exact transcription of original labels, and preservation condition of specimens. Moreover, the differences between original descriptions and labels are discussed. When a taxonomic change has occurred, the references that examine these changes are included at the end of the taxa description.
