In 1893, Gestro founded the genus Ceroplophana, only including the simultaneously described species C. modiglianii Gestro. He considered the genus — based on the only known specimen — closely related to Peperonota Westwood, Didrepanephorus Wood-Mason, and Dicaulocephalus Gestro. For rutelines, the males in these genera have strikingly developed secondary sexual characters. Gestro's species was the first representative from an insular locality of this South-East Asian group (Si Rambé, Batakland, North Sumatra; this locality is mentioned on the map in the report of the explorer who collected the material, Modigliani, 1891). Recently I could study seven ♂ of modiglianii from West Malaysia. They show striking differences from Gestro's description. Gestro's...

A revision of the genus Parastasia in the Indo-Australian region (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae: Rutelinae)

Palavras-chave: 42.75.

Ano: 1977

URL: http://www.repository.naturalis.nl/record/318707

A revision is presented of the species in the genus Parastasia. All known species are described, 11 new species are established, the parameres of most species are figured, the taxonomic levels of several taxa are changed, and 21 new synonymies are proposed. For many taxa lectotypes are designated and many specimens bearing incorrect or dubious type labels are degraded to their true status. Some aspects of distribution and dispersal are shortly discussed. A tentative key and a check list are added.

A taxonomic revision of the Hybosorine genera Microphaeochroops Pic, Microphaeolodes Kuijten, Mimocoelodes Pic, Pantolasius Lansberge and Phaeochridius Lansberge is given. Microphaeochroops nigrosetosus, Microphaeochroops varius, Microphaeolodes mulumontis and Pantolasius bandaharae are proposed as new species, and Microphaeolodes as a new genus. Lectotypes are designated for Microphaeochroops peninsularis Arrow, Phaeochridius derasus (Harold) and Phaeochridius haroldi Fairmaire. Phaeochridius haroldi Fairmaire is synonymized with Phaeochridius derasus (Harold); Phaeochridius benderitteri Pic and Phaeochridius cinereicollis Arrow are synonymized with Phaeochridius uniformis Arrow.

A taxonomic revision of the scarabaeoid genus Hybosorus is given, including descriptions, nomenclatorial notes, figures of genital apparatus and other relevant parts, a key, and notes on distribution and bionomics. Lectotypes are designated for Hybosorus carolinus LeConte, H. crassus Klug, H. nitidus Lansberge, H. pinguis Westwood, H. roei Westwood, and Hybosoroides alluaudi Benderitter. Hybosorus arator (Illiger), H. carolinus LeConte, H. nitidus Lansberge (nov. syn.), H. illigeri var. nossibianus Fairmaire, H. pinguis Westwood, H. roei Westwood, H. arator subsp. arator (Illiger) sensu Endrödi, 1957 (nov. syn.) and H. arator subsp. palearcticus Endrödi (nov. syn.) are considered synonyms of H. illigeri Reiche. Problems concerning the type-species and some...

Revision of the genus Phaeochroops Candèze (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae, Hybosorinae)

Palavras-chave: 42.75.

Ano: 1983

A revision of the species of Phaeochroops Candèze is given. The species recognized before this study are redescribed and seven new species are defined, viz., P. colopacilis (Vietnam), freenae (Malaya), seres (Vietnam), ninbin (Vietnam), lakhonicus (Thailand), longisetosus (India) and vulturius (Sumatra). For nine species lectotypes are designated, viz., P. gigas Arrow, punctulatus Arrow, indicus Arrow, opacicollis Arrow, rattus Arrow, batuensis Arrow, mentaweiensis Arrow, niasianus Arrow, vulpecula Arrow. Five forms are considered synonyms, viz., P. niasianus Arrow, batuensis Arrow and mentaweiensis Arrow are synonyms of rattus Arrow (P. mentaweiensis already synonymized by Arrow, 1942) ; recticollis Pic is a synonym of silphoides Fairmaire ; punctulatus...

Revision of the Indo-Australian species of the genus Phaeochrous castelnau, 1840 (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae, Hybosorinae), with notes on the African species

A revision of the Indo-Australian species and notes on the African species of Phaeochrous are given. Nine new species and three new subspecies are described, viz., Phaeochrous australicus (Australia), compactus (Sri Lanka), elevatus (South India, Sri Lanka), enigmaticus (Java, Bangla Desh, China), lobatus (Philippines), madrassicus (South India), pletus (Timor), portuum (Papua New Guinea), pseudintermedius (Vietnam, South China), P. dissimilis subsp. vietnamicola (Vietnam, South China), emarginatus subsp. buruensis (Moluccas), intermedius subsp. occidentalis (North India, Bhutan). A neotype for Phaeochrous emarginatus Castelnau is designated. Two species hitherto considered synonyms of P. emarginatus are recognized as species and subspecies respectively,...

Rutelarcha, Lutera and Cyphelytra: notes on taxonomy and Nomenclature, Diagnoses, and keys (Coleoptera: Rutelinae, Rutelini)

Palavras-chave: Coleoptera; Scarabaeidae; Phaeochrous; Revision; New subspecies; Key; 42.75.

Ano: 1978

Rutelarcha, Lutera and Cyphelytra are restated as genera, in the subtribus Rutelina; Arrow (1917) considered them synonyms of Parastasia, in the Parastasiina. Machatschke's (1972) new name Parastasia pauliana for Parastasia nigromaculata (Ohaus) (= Lutera) therefore is superfluous, and merged into synonymy. Lectotypes are designated for Cyphelytra ochracea and Rutelarcha quadrimaculata. The genera and species are diagnosed in a table, keys and descriptions, and some diagnostic characters are figured.
