Contribution to the study of Rhinotragini (Coleoptera, Cerambycidae). I. Change in the status of the subgenera of Ommata White, 1855, and revision of Agaone Pascoe, 1859. All subgenera of Ommata are elevated to genera regarding the diversity of characters found in each one. Agaone is reviewed, and a new species described: A. punctilla sp. nov. from Brazil (Minas Gerais, Espírito Santo, Rio de Janeiro). Cantharoxylymna Linsley, 1934 is considered a junior synonym of Agaone. Grupiara gen. nov. is described to allocate Ommata (Agaone) viridis Gounelle, 1911.
