Acromis is a genus of beetles belonging to the family Chrysomelidae.[2] The three species of this genus are found in Southern America.[2] These species exhibit subsociality, where the females lay clusters of eggs that she guards until they hatch, the larvae mature, pupate, and young adults disperse.[3]

Acromis sparsa (Boheman, 1854)
Acromis spinifex (Linnaeus, 1763)
Acromis venosa Erichson, 1847
