Plistonax is a genus of beetles in the family Cerambycidae. Plistonax is a Neotropical genus of flat-faced long-horned beetles (tribe Acanthoderini). Orginnally, scientists described Plistonax with nine species but lacked clear diagnostic traits, leading to unstable classification. Plistonax is polyphyletic, where Plistonax insolitus emerged as a lone lineage.
