RESUMO
Seventy four species of Cerambycidae (Coleoptera) were reared from forty eight host plants found into Yungas, Chaco and Prepuna phytogeografical provinces. The host plants belong Anacardiaceae, Asclepiadaceae, Bignoniaceae, Cactaceae, Cucurbitaceae, Euphorbiaceae, Juglandaceae, Leguminosae sensu lato (Caesalpinaceae, Fabaceae, Mimosaceae), Loranthaceae, Rhamnaceae, Rutaceae, Salicaceae, Sapindaceae, Solanaceae, Ulmaceae and Vitaceae. Some species of Cerambycidae and their host plants show similar distribution patterns: from northeastern Brazil through Paraguay and reach the Argentina at both sides of the Chaco Provine: at the east, along the river systems through Buenos Aires, and the at the west into forests of the Yungas Province or into North Sierra Chaco, a probably relictual community. Others species are restricted to the South America area of Prosopis, that comprise the Chaco, Monte and Espinal biogeographical provinces, and live in host plants of chaquenian lineage mainly Leguminosae sensu lato and Ulmaceae.

The host plants of Cerambycidae (Coleoptera) in the Province of Espinal (Chaquenian Dominion) and the province of Buenos Aires are mainly exotics, cultivated or naturalized, the last ones growing spontaneously and forming little forests. Forty two species of Cerambycidae are reported using these plants and other native species as hosts. Hylotrupes bajulus, originally introduced and a serious pest of furniture, is reported for first time in spontaneous pine forests in Sierra de la Ventana, south of the province of Buenos Aires.

New host plants and localities are recorded for 84 species of Cerambycidae of Chaco Province (Chaquenian Dominion) and Paranaense Province (Amazonian Dominion) in northeastern Argentina and Brazil. Host plants belong to Anacardiaceae, Asclepiadaceae, Apocynaceae, Bignoniaceae, Bombacaceae, Cactaceae, Caesalpinaceae, Capparidaceae, Casuarinaceae, Fabaceae, Mimosaceae, Moraceae, Nyctaginaceae, Polygonaceae, Rhamnaceae, Rutaceae, Sapindaceae, Sapotaceae and Ulmaceae. First records for Argentina and host plants: Compsocerus barbicornis Serville 1834, Desmiphora lenkoi (Lane 1959), Neocompsa serrana (Martins 1962) and Trachysomus dromedarius (Voet 1778). First host plants records of rare or uncommon Argentine species of Cerambycidae are Methia tubuliventris Gounelle 1913, Paraleptidea femorata Gounelle 1913 and Oncideres pepotinga Martins 1981.
