It includes photographs of both sexes from nearly all the species, in dorsal, ventral and lateral views, emphasizing the morphological characteristics of diagnostical value. It also includes determination keys for most of taxa to make easier the verification of the determinations. The Subfamily Lamiinae in Cuba includes 97 species, 23 of them with systematical and/or distributional changes: - 15 species were synonymized: Spalacopsis grandis (Chevrolat, 1862), Ataxiastehliki Chemsak, 1969, Eupogonius griseus Fisher, 1926, Eupogonius bierigi Melzer 1933, Leptostylus bahamicus Fisher, 1925, Leptostylus biustus var. cubanus Fisher, 1926, Leptostylus caymanensis Fisher, 1948, Styloleptus biustus var.
