Abstract
Except for designating Bruchus pruininus Horn as its type-species, Bridwell did not indicate what bruchid species should be assigned to his genus Stator. This genus is now found to include also Bruchus limbatus Horn, B. sordidus Horn, B. subaeneus Schaeffer, B. pythonicus Pic, and Statorbeali, a new species from Texas. These six species are keyed; each is described, its male genitalia are figured, and its distribution is given. The known range of the genus is from Texas to California (and Hawaii), and south into Mexico.Keywords
