Abstract

The Chrysomelidae fauna of Plummers Island, Maryland consists of 161 species. This represents 43% of the known Maryland fauna. Work conducted in 1997 and 1998 showed a species turnover rate of 72.6% but a decline in species richness of only 2.1%. Nine species have been collected nowhere else in Maryland. Tricholochmaea decora decora (Say) is reported from Maryland for the first time.
