Abstract
The larva and pupa of Homophileurus tricuspis Prell (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae: Dynastinae: Phileurini) are described for the first time based on specimens from Colombia. A key to the known third-stage larvae of New World Phileurini species is provided. Notes on the natural history and distribution of H. tricuspis in Colombia are also included. Homophileurus Kolbe consists of nine species.
