Brachypnoea
Brachypnoea is a genus of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae. It is mostly found in the Neotropical realm, though there are also eight known species in the Nearctic realm. The genus was originally named "Noda", named by Chevrolat in Dejean's Catalogue in 1836. However, this was preoccupied by "Noda" Schellenberg, 1803, a genus in Diptera. Two replacement names were made for "Noda": "Brachypnoea", by Gistel in 1848, and "Nodonota" by Édouard Lefèvre in 1885. Since "Brachypnoea" was published first, it has priority over "Nodonota".
