A comprehensive inventory of Cerambycidae (longhorn beetles) species from Vila Dois Rios, Ilha Grande, Brazil, reveals 50 previously unrecorded species for the island. This study, based on field collections from 2008, literature reviews, and museum records, identifies three subfamilies: Prioninae (6%), Cerambycinae (14%), and Lamiinae (80%). The latter dominates with 40 species across ten tribes, highlighting its ecological significance. Detailed catalographic data, distribution maps, illustrations, and examined material are provided for each species, offering critical insights into the biodiversity of this UNESCO World Heritage Site.
