- <abstract abstract-type="main" id="syen12070-abs-0001"> <title>Abstract</title> <p id="syen12070-para-0001">The genus, <italic>Cladispa</italic> Baly 1858, is transferred from the tribe Imatidiini (= Cephaloleiini Chapuis, 1875) to Spilophorini Chapuis, 1875 based on the review of type material, newly collected specimens and molecular phylogenetic analysis. The type species, <italic>C. quadrimaculata</italic> Baly, 1858, is redescribed, and two new species, <italic>C. amboroensis</italic><bold>sp.n.</bold> from Bolivia (Santa Cruz Department) and <italic>C. ecuadorica</italic><bold>sp.n.</bold> from Ecuador (Pastaza Province), are described and figured. The morphology of <italic>C. amboroensis</italic><bold>sp.n.</bold> immature stages is broadly consistent with other Spilophorini. Field observations document that both <italic>C. quadrimaculata</italic> and <italic>C. amboroensis</italic><bold>sp.n.</bold> are trophic specialists on Orchideaceae. Keys to <italic>Cladispa</italic> species and Spilophorini genera are provided. Trophic associations of other Cassidinae and Orchideaceae are discussed.</p> <p id="syen12070-para-0002">This published work has been registered in ZooBank, <ext-link ext-link-type="uri" xlink:href="http://zoobank.org/urn:lsid:zoobank.org:pub:42A1ECF3-2030-4938-8F3D-FE7EC36F303A" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">http://zoobank.org/urn:lsid:zoobank.org:pub:42A1ECF3‐2030‐4938‐8F3D‐FE7EC36F303A</ext-link></p> </abstract>
