Systematics and nomenclature

The genus Cheguevaria is of uncertain relationships, though possibly related to Amydetinae, and has been given placement as the sole member of its own subfamily, after previously being considered as incertae sedis within the Lampyridae.[2] The genus name is in homage to Marxist revolutionary leader Che Guevara.[1]
