+
+Diagnosis.
+
+Himatolabus pubescens
+
+can be recognized in general by its conspicuous pubescence that consists of abundant white and yellow setae. It can be distinguished from other species of
+
+Himatolabus
+
+by the pubescence that is irregularly distributed dorsally and by the lack of distinct postocular lobes.
+
+
+
+
+Description.
+Length 4.0–
+6.8 mm
+. Integument reddish brown. Vestiture consisting of abundant, white to pale yellow setae; on elytra setae abundant, short, recumbent and curved. Head slightly narrowed from base to eyes; median carina slightly elevated, longitudinal, extending from vertex to middle of eye; surface of head strongly punctured below median carina. Rostrum shorter than head, constricted at antennal insertion; broadly expanded apically, about 2.0× width of frons; lateral apical angles with a blunt tooth. Antennae inserted dorsolaterally at basal 1/3 of rostrum. Pronotum width 1.3× length, widest at base; strongly arcuate laterally, converging to recurved apex; disc convex, with distinct, round impressions on median lateral area, surface with large, dense, moderately deep punctures. Elytra as long as wide, width at base 1.3–1.4× pronotal width; apex broadly rounded; striae shallowly impressed, inconspicuous, with moderately large and moderately deeply impressed punctures; interstriae rugose, weakly elevated, with scattered, fine punctures.
+
+
+Natural history.
+This species exhibits considerable variation over its range in terms of color, size and pubescence, and is the most widespread species of
+
+Himatolabus
+
+in North America (
+Hamilton 1992
+). Adults have been recorded on hazelnut (
+
+Corylus americana
+Walter
+
+), speckled alder (
+
+Alnus rugosa
+(DuRoi) Sprengel
+
+), gray alder (
+
+Alnus incana
+(Linnaeus) Moench
+
+), oak (
+
+Quercus
+spp.
+
+), and common yarrow (
+
+Achillea millefolium
+Linnaeus
+
+). However, it is most commonly associated with oak. The thief weevil,
+
+Pterocolis ovatus
+
+, is documented to be a nidus-kleptoparasite of
+
+H. pubescens
+
+when they use oak as their host plant (
+Hamilton 1992
+).

+Diagnosis.
+
+Homeolabus analis
+
+can be distinguished from
+
+Synolabus
+species
+
+by the larger size and by the untoothed prothoracic femora. It is most similar superficially to
+
+S. nigripes
+
+given the occasional overlap in size (between the range 4.0–
+4.5mm
+) and the red dorsum, but can be distinguished by the black thoracic sterna (red in
+
+S. nigripes
+
+). This species can be distinguished from
+
+H. pubescens
+
+by the glabrous body.
+
+
+
+
+Description.
+Length
+3.2–6.7mm
+. Integument black to reddish black; pronotum, elytra, abdomen, and sometimes base of head reddish orange, varying from yellow orange to dark reddish brown. Vestiture evident on head and lateral areas of elytra, rest of surface glabrous. Head with sides parallel from base to eyes; surface densely punctured, with median groove flanked on each side by 1 impressed groove, grooves extending from areas near antennal insertions to above eyes, areas between grooves elevated into 2 divergent carinae. Rostrum about half as long as head, constricted at antennal insertion; apex expanded and inflated, width about 1.7–1.8× width of frons; submentum of male with 2 blunt teeth, of female without teeth. Antennae inserted dorsolaterally on basal 1/3 of rostrum. Pronotum width 1.3× length, widest at base; weakly arcuate laterally, strongly converging to sinuate apex; disc evenly convex, not impressed; surface shining, smooth, with widely scattered, very minute punctures. Elytra width at base 1.2× pronotal width, broadly rounded apically; striae not impressed, with large, shallowly impressed, widely separated punctures in nearly regular rows; interstriae smooth, shining, with obscure, fine, minute punctures and lines.

+
+
+
+
+Diagnosis.
+
+Eugnamptus angustatus
+
+exhibits great color variation, which has caused early taxonomic confusion and resulted in the description of a number of synonyms (
+Hamilton 1990
+). Four different morphs exist within this species; the color variation can be recognized as: the typical form (42%) (
+Fig.9–12
+), the dark-colored form (33%, only females), the pale-legged-color form (20%) and the red-headed-color form (5%).
+Pierce (1913)
+proposed these various morphs to be different species, however they are now recognized as synonyms.
+
+Eugnamptus angustatus
+
+can be recognized by the elytral integument that is always dark, by the punctures of the interstriae that are much smaller than those of the striae, and by the head with small and widely spaced setigerous punctures.
+
+
+
+
+Description.
+Length
+2.5–4.4mm
+(head excluded). Integument reddish brown to black; pronotum sometimes light red or reddish brown; legs light brown or reddish; elytra always dark. Head convex at upper level of eyes; surface with very small, weakly impressed, widely separated punctures. Rostrum arcuate, in male shorter than pronotum, in female as long as pronotum; sides in dorsal view parallel from eyes to antennal insertion. Pronotum length 1.1× width, widest at middle, moderately arcuate laterally, converging to truncate apex; disc with fairly large, shallow, round punctures, interpuncture space smooth, shining. Elytra length 1.8× width, width about 2.0× pronotal width; striae distinct, not impressed, with round, moderate, impressed punctures; interstriae much wider than striae, flat; strial and interstrial punctures each with 1 long, erect seta.
+
+
+Natural history.
+This species is often collected from oak (
+
+Quercus
+Linnaeus spp.
+
+) and is known to mine dead oak leaves. They have also been recorded on walnut (
+
+Juglans
+Linnaeus spp.
+
+), dogwood (
+
+Cornus
+Linnaeus spp.
+
+), hickory (
+
+Carya
+Nuttall spp.
+
+), sassafras (
+Sassafras
+Boehmer spp.), black gum (
+
+Nyssa
+Linnaeus spp.
+
+), and the common persimmon (
+
+Diospyros virginiana
+Linnaeus
+
+).
+Hamilton (1980)
+recorded the life history of this species in northern
+Ohio
+on sassafras (
+Sassafras albidum
+(Nuttall) Nees von Essenbeck). The adults emerge in late May to early June and mate on mature sassafras trees, feeding preferentially on young developing leaves. After mating, the females will relocate to the ground to oviposit in dead leaves from the previous fall leaf drop. Larvae develop within the leaf as full depth leaf miners and reach the 4
+th
+instar in 3–4 months; once they mature, they leave the mines to pupate in the soil and overwinter. In the lab, females have been observed to oviposit in the leaves of oak (
+
+Quercus
+spp.
+
+) and sweetfern (
+
+Comptonia peregrina
+(Linnaeus) Coulter
+
+).

+
+Eugnamptus puncticeps
+
+can be recognized by the head with numerous, dense setigerous punctures, by the elytra that are never dark, and by the males and females that are of approximately the same size, a character that distinguishes this species from the rest of the genus. According to
+LeConte (1876)
+, the antennae are also stouter than those of
+
+E. angustatus
+
+.
+
+
+
+
+Description.
+Length 3.0–4.0mm (head excluded). Integument reddish brown to yellowish to brown throughout, with variable dark areas on the rostrum and the distal part of the appendages. Head slightly longer than wide, with numerous, rather dense setigerous punctures. Rostrum length 1.25× length of head, slightly wider than frons apically. Frons slightly convex, sometimes with weak median linear impression, wider than rostral base. Antennae inserted slightly behind middle of rostrum; club short, much shorter than funicle, apical segment slightly longer than penultimate segment. Pronotum as wide as long, slightly wider than distance across eyes, with dense, setigerous punctures subequal to those of head; nearly parallel-sided, narrowed only slightly basally and apically, dorsal surface weakly flattened, sometimes with weak, mid-dorsal impression behind middle. Elytral length about 3.0× pronotal length, width <2.0× pronotal width at base, widening only slightly near apical 2/3; striae round to quadrate, moderately impressed; interstriae weakly convex, as wide as or slightly wider than striae, punctures very small, <0.25× those of striae. Sexual dimorphism present, exhibiting all sexual dimorphism of the genus except eyes of males and females are approximately the same size.

+Natural history.
+According to

+, this species has only been collected on dwarf sumac (
+
+R. copallina
+
+), mostly in June, July and August. Among the
+Wisconsin
+specimens, a series of this species was reported on smooth sumac (
+
+Rhus glabra
+Linnaeus
+
+): “very active, on tips of leaflets of
+
+Rhus glabra
+
+, excavating lower surface, leaving circular scars visible above and below, upper epidermis undamaged, limy hill prairie, 5 pm, cloudy, 74F” (label data from vouchered specimen series in WIRC; A. Williams collector). A specimen was collected by “sweeping bluff prairie”, and another by “sweeping prairie/savannah”. This species is wide ranging but apparently not locally abundant (
+Hamilton 1990
+).

+
+) or dwarf sumac (

+R. copallina
+
+) or by sweeping prairie habitats where its plant associations are found. It has can also be collected at UV light.

Head arcuate laterally from base to eyes; surface smooth, with few very small, widely separated, shallow, minute punctures and with two deeply impressed arcuate grooves along each eye; median area impressed from antennal insertion to above upper level of eyes. Rostrum a little shorter than head, constricted at antennal insertion; surface densely punctured, rugose; submental area in males with conspicuous median tooth, in females with swelling. Antennae inserted dorsolaterally near base of rostrum. Pronotum width about 1.5× length, widest at base; arcuate laterally, converging to recurved apex; disc evenly convex, with minute, impressed punctures, interpuncture space smooth and shining. Elytra width at base about 1.3–1.4× pronotal width, broadly rounded apically; striae not impressed, with large, shallowly impressed punctures in regular rows; interstriae about 3.0× strial width.

+Diagnosis.
+
+Pterocolus ovatus
+
+can be easily recognized by the metallic blue-green to blue-black integument, by the distinct lateral carina on the pronotum with the prothoracic pleuron strongly excavated beneath it, by the antennae inserted close to the eyes, and by the elytra that are individually rounded apically.
+
+
+
+
+Description.
+Length
+2.8–3.2 mm
+. Body bright metallic blue or green; antennae, rostrum, and legs somewhat darker. Vestiture consisting of inconspicuous, fine setae. Head densely punctured on vertex. Rostral length about 0.7× pronotal length, constricted at antennal insertion, diverging to broad apex; surface shining, with 2 longitudinal rows of close punctures near lateral margin, area between rows very finely, sparsely punctured. Frons much narrower than dorsal tip of rostrum. Pronotal width about 1.3× length, widest at junction of elytral humeral angles; disc strongly convex, with dense, evenly spaced punctures, each bearing 1 short, recumbent hair-like seta; interpuncture spaces shining, smooth, much narrower than diameter of puncture. Elytral width 1.2× length; striae moderately impressed, with moderate, deeply impressed punctures; interstriae about 2.0× strial width, shining, smooth, with 1 irregular row of medium-sized punctures, each bearing 1 recumbent, fine seta. Visible abdominal tergites with large, strong, dense punctures.

+
+Auletobius cassandrae
+
+can be recognized by the deeply impressed, round to quadrate, weakly-rowed elytral punctures, by the antennae that are inserted in basal ¼ of rostrum, by the head that is constricted behind the eyes, by the bicolored pubescence that is yellow and white with the irregular white cross bands on the elytra, by the smaller size (around 2.0 mm), and by the small bulbous area on declivity of each elytron that bears an inconspicuous setose sex patch in the males.
+
+
+
+
+Description.
+Length
+1.8–2.2mm
+. Integument dark reddish brown; head and pronotum usually darker than elytra. Elytral vestiture consisting of yellow and white setae, the white setae forming irregular cross bands; vestiture of head and pronotum consisting of setae all white or intermixed with yellow. Head strongly convex, transversely impressed behind eyes; surface with small, close, rather weakly impressed punctures. Rostral length about 1.4× pronotal length, in lateral view nearly straight and distinctly flattened apically; in dorsal view narrower basally, more-or-less parallel-sided anteriad antennal insertion and sometimes slightly constricted at apical ¼; surface glabrous, minutely reticulate, with scattered, fine, shallow punctures. Antennae inserted in basal ¼ of rostrum. Pronotum very slightly longer than wide, widest at middle; weakly arcuate laterally, very weakly constricted before apical margin; disc convex, with large, deeply impressed, close punctures; interpuncture space shining. Elytral length 1.4× width, width at base 1.6× pronotal width; striae with punctures large, deeply impressed, placed in even rows; interstriae as wide as or slightly narrower than striae, shining, with scattered minute points; disc weakly impressed on basal quarter, somewhat inflated behind; on declivity each elytron bears an inconspicuous setose sex patch in males. Sexual dimorphism present in elytra.

+
+Haplorhynchites aeneus
+
+can be recognized by the abundant erect pubescence, by the generally larger size, and by the black integument. It can be distinguished from other
+
+Haplorhynchites
+species
+
+by the dense, random punctures on the elytra. It may also be confused with
+
+Auletobius ater
+
+, but it can be distinguished by the antennae that are inserted in or just in front of the basal 1/3 of the rostrum, which is inserted near the middle of the rostrum in
+
+A. ater
+
+.
+
+
+
+
+Description.
+Length
+3.9–6.6mm
+. Integument black, venter and tip of rostrum with faint greenish luster. Vestiture consisting of abundant, erect setae. Head conical, with moderate punctures; interpuncture space forming irregular longitudinal ridges. Rostrum slightly arcuate, in male only 1.3× pronotal length, in female as long as head + pronotum; sides in dorsal view expanded in apical 1⁄5, width at apex about 1.25× width of frons. Antennae inserted at or just in front of basal 1/3 of rostrum. Pronotal width about 1.2× length, widest behind middle; distinctly arcuate laterally; disc with shallow, close punctures, interpuncture space shining, smooth, with coarse, erect, brown setae. Elytral length about 1.2× width, width 2.0× pronotal width; surface randomly punctured, the punctures close and deep, bearing coarse, erect setae; straie and interstriae inconspicuous.

+
+
+Natural history.
+This species has been recorded from the eastern part of the
+US
+, westward to the continental divide, but is most numerous in the Midwest. It is the most common
+
+Haplorhynchites
+species
+
+in North America and is associated with many species in the sunflower tribe
+Heliantheae
+. Male and female adults are usually found together on uncut flower heads shortly after their appearance in July, copulation then occurs on these heads; after or during copulation the females would cut the stems below the flower heads incompletely so the heads are still attached. Eggs are found in the disc-flower bases of cut heads, and eclose in about a week. After reaching maturity the larvae leave the cut heads and enter the soil. The larvae overwinter and emerge the following July (
+Hamilton 1973
+).
+
+
+This species is generally associated with sunflowers (
+
+Helianthus
+Linnaeus spp.
+
+), including woodland sunflower (
+
+Helianthus divaricatus
+Linnaeus
+
+), sawtooth sunflower (
+
+Helianthus grosseserratus
+Martens
+
+), common sunflower (
+
+Helianthus annuus
+Linnaeus
+
+), stiff sunflower (
+
+Helianthus pauciflorus
+Nuttall
+
+), and few-leaf sunflower (
+
+Helianthus occidentalis
+Riddell
+
+). It has also been recorded from rosinweeds (
+
+Silphium
+Linnaeus spp.
+
+), including compassplant (
+
+Silphium laciniatum
+Linnaeus
+
+), wholelead rosinweed (
+
+Silphium integrifolium
+Michaux
+
+) and prairie rosinweed (
+
+Silphium terebinthinaceum
+Jacquin
+
+), as well as scruf pea (
+
+Psoralea
+Linnaeus spp.
+
+), oxeye (
+
+Heliopsis
+Persoon spp.
+
+), tickseed (
+
+Coreopsis
+Linnaeus spp.
+
+), and prairie goldenrod (
+
+Solidago ptarmicoides
+(Torrey & A. Gray) B. Boivin
+
+).
+
+
+In
+Wisconsin
+, they have been found on disc flowers of stiff sunflower, few-leaf sunflower, and prairie goldenrod, as well as swept from blazing star (
+
+Liatris
+Schreber spp.
+
+), rosinweeds (
+
+Silphium
+spp.
+
+), bergamot (

+Diagnosis.
+
+Merhynchites bicolor
+
+can be distinguished by the red prothorax, elytra and base of head, and by the larger size. It is very similar to
+
+M. wickhami
+
+, the western rose curculio, which has a more western distribution and is not known from
+Wisconsin
+.
+
+Merhynchites bicolor
+
+can be recognized by the base of the head that is red as opposed to black, by the elytral strial punctures that are larger than the interstrial punctures, by the wider eyes (
+0.12–0.14 mm
+wide as opposed to
+0.07–0.10 mm
+in
+
+M. wickhami
+
+), by the straighter rostrum, by the smooth elytral interstriae, and by the spiculum gastrale with the lateral margin bearing an acute, tooth-like process, which is absent in
+
+M. wickhami
+.
+
+
+
+
+
+Description.
+Length
+4.5–5.5 mm
+(head excluded). Integument black; prothorax, elytra and base of head red or reddish brown to light yellow. Head dull or shining, base of head red, apex usually black; surface with elongate punctures between eyes, interpuncture space weakly elevated, carinate at base of rostrum. Rostrum straight (more so in female), distinctly punctured, with 1 weakly elevated, longitudinal median ridge; longitudinally impressed basally in front of eyes. Eyes strongly convex. Pronotal width 1.1× length, widest at middle; broadly arcuate laterally, strongly converging to broadly rounded apex; disc distinctly convex, with moderate, impressed punctures, interpuncture spaces moderately shining, smooth. Elytral length 1.3× width, width at base 1.5–1.6× pronotal width; striae with large punctures; interstriae 1.5–2.0× strial width, smooth, with fine, erect, scattered setae. Pygidium densely punctured. Sexual dimorphism present in rostrum and legs: prothoracic coxae of male with round to oval, densely setose pits apically.
+
+
+Natural history.
+This species is commonly known as the rose curculio or the rose weevil as it is most often found on roses (
+
+Rosa
+Linnaeus spp.
+
+) as well as species of
+
+Rubus
+
+; it can be an occasional pest of cultivated roses, blackberries, and raspberries. Larvae are recorded to develop in the hips of these plants and feed on the achenes. In
+Wisconsin
+, it has been reared from hips of Carolina rose (
+
+Rosa carolina
+Linnaeus
+
+), smooth rose (
+
+Rosa blanda
+Aiton
+
+) and wild prairie rose (
+
+Rosa arkansana
+Porter
+
+). It has also been found on rugosa rose (
+
+Rosa rugosa
+Thunberg
+
+).
+
+
+There is much published on this species:
+Chittenden (1901)
+reported on pest species including
+
+M. bicolor
+
+that are found on ornamental plants;
+Cooley (1903)
+reported that
+
+M. bicolor
+
+is an insect pest;
+Lovett (1915)
+reported that
+
+M. bicolor
+
+injures blackberry buds;
+Robertson (1923)
+investigated
+
+M. bicolor
+
+in
+Manitoba
+and how it affected roses;
+Balduf (1959)
+reported on insects including
+
+M. bicolor
+
+that are associated with rose hips; finally,
+Hamilton and Kuritsky (1981)
+described the larva and pupa of
+
+M. bicolor
+
+.
+
+
+Phenology.
+In
+Wisconsin
+, adults have been collected from April to August, with a peak in June and July.
+
+
+Collecting methods.
+During this study, 239
+Wisconsin
+specimens were examined from 27 counties, forming a total of 28 county records. This species is most commonly hand-collected from wild roses. It is also often collected by sweeping roses, sweeping fields where roses are present, or by rearing from hips of various rose species.

Head quadrate, with rather widely and evenly spaced, round, setigerous punctures, distance between punctures about equal to the puncture size, more widely spaced in middle of frons and more crowded around eye, interspace with highly reflective dense bead-like granulations. Rostrum in male length <1.0× pronotal length, in female about 1.25× pronotal length; nearly parallel-sided for entire length, slightly widening apically, distinctly angulate just beyond antennal insertion, gradually and strongly flattened from middle to apex, with wide weak channel dorsomedially from between antennal insertion to base. Eyes large, oval, weakly conical, separation equal to or slightly greater than longest diameter; in male protuberant, in female moderately protuberant. Antennae in male inserted at basal 1/3 of rostrum, in female between basal 2⁄5 and 1⁄5 of rostrum. Pronotum as long as wide, more elongate in male, slightly narrowing apically, less so in male, widest behind middle, with round, dense setigerous punctures, those sometime fusing, interspace with highly reflective bead-like granulation. Elytral length>2.0× pronotal length, width 1.75× pronotal width; striae quadrate, moderately impressed; interstriae weakly convex, narrower than striae, with a row of small setigerous punctures.

+
+Temnocerus perplexus
+
+can be recognized by the almost completely visible pygidium, by the rostrum that gradually widens from antennal insertion to apex, by the pronotum that is slightly longer than wide with dense, setigerous punctures, and by the large punctures on the head.
+
+
+
+
+Description.
+Length of male
+1.7–2.6 mm
+, of female 2.0–
+2.7 mm
+. Integument black, shiny, with faint blue sheen or without bluish reflections; apex of rostrum, antennae and apex of legs somewhat paler. Head quadrate, slightly longer than wide, with round, evenly spaced, setiferous punctures; interpuncture spaces with dense, shining, minute granules. Rostral length 1.3× length of head + pronotum, in lateral view distinctly flattened apically; sides in dorsal view gradually widening from antennal insertion apically, narrower at apex than frons; distinctly arcuate and weakly flattened apically; punctures large. Antennae in male inserted just in front of basal 0.2 of rostrum, in female inserted near basal 0.2 of rostrum. Pronotum slightly longer than wide, slightly narrowed apically, widest behind middle; disc with round to irregularly shaped, dense setigerous punctures, interpuncture space with a few granules. Elytral length>2.0× width, width 2.0× pronotal width; striae not impressed, with deep, quadrate punctures; interstriae about 0.5× strial width, weakly convex, each interstria with 1 row of small, round, setiferous punctures. Pygidium almost completely visible, covered only at extreme base. Sexual dimorphism present in size and antennal insertion.
+
+
+Natural history.
+According to
+Hamilton (1983b)
+, both
+
+Auletobius cassandrae
+
+and
+
+Temnocerus perplexus
+
+have the same general distribution in eastern North America; they have been collected at both separate and common sites, and occur on the same host plant, sweetfern (
+
+C. peregrina
+
+). The females of both species oviposit in and then cut the terminal leaf primordia of sweet fern, which causes this tissue to fall to the ground and provide food and protection for the larva. Adults of both species feed on leaves of sweetfern, though in different manners.
+
+Temnocerus perplexus
+
+feeds by scraping off strips of the upper epidermis.
+
+
+Some species of
+
+Temnocerus
+
+are “tip cutters”. Females of these species oviposit in young terminal plant growth; after oviposition they cut off the terminal part with their mandibles so the larvae can pupate in the ground after their development in the dead terminal tissues (
+Hamilton 2010
+).
+Hamilton (1983a)
+reported the tip cutting behavior of
+
+T. perplexus
+
+on sweetfern (
+
+Comptonia peregrina
+
+) in the Midwest. The females in some other species of
+
+Temnocerus
+
+are known to oviposit in terminal buds or shoots without excising them (
+Dieckman 1974
+;
+Hamilton 1994
+).
+
+
+Phenology.
+This species is univoltine. In

+♀
+) and 1.3 × (
+♂
+) as wide as long (
+Fig. 16B–C
+); vertex of male 2.05 × as long as distance between posterior ocellus and inner eye margin; pronotal carina sharp but not lamellate, apical translucent margin separated from rest of tergite by large punctures, pigmented digitations running between punctures (
+Fig. 16F
+); mesosoma matte and densely punctate, scutellum and area between parapsidal furrows with punctures touching each other and forming irregular series. Genitalia in
+Fig. 27K
+.
+
+
+
+
+
+Etymology
+
+
+The specific epithet comes from the Latin adjective ‘scaber, scabra, scabrum’ (= ‘rough’), in reference to the rough sculpture of the head and mesosoma.

+
+
+Remarks
+
+
+
+Gusenleitner (2011)
+originally named this species
+
+A. tertius
+
+without providing the etymology of the name. The Latin word
+
+‘
+tertius
+
+’ can be considered both an adjective (
+
+‘
+tertius
+
+’, meaning ‘third’) and a noun in apposition (
+
+‘
+Tertius
+
+’, translated to ‘Terzo’, a masculine proper noun). In this case Gusenleitner evidently named the species referring to it as the third described species in the genus, making clear that
+
+‘
+tertius
+
+’ was used as an adjective. Since
+
+Afrepipona
+
+is a feminine generic name, the correct specific name is
+
+Afrepipona tertia
+
+, as an adjective must agree in gender with the generic name.
+
+
+Examination of a part of the typical series showed that the male
+holotype
+and
+one female
+paratype
+belong to different species, with the
+holotype
+belonging to
+
+Afrepipona
+
+and the
+paratype
+to an undescribed species in the newly established genus
+
+Afrepsilon
+
+gen. nov.
+, described below as
+
+Afrepsilon pictum
+
+gen. et sp. nov.
+The female clypeus shown in the original description (
+Gusenleitner 2011
+: fig. 13) belongs to the latter, while the male pictures (
+Gusenleitner 2011
+: figs 9–12) belong to a
+paratype
+, probably conspecific with the
+holotype
+.
+
+The lateral “spines” of S7, mentioned and pictured in the original description, are in fact two dense tufts of setae.

+MEASUREMENTS
+. Body length 8.0 mm; fore wing length 7.0 mm.
+
+
+MORPHOLOGY
+. Head 1.25 × as wide as long in frontal view. Clypeus 1.3 × as wide as long, apical margin evenly emarginate between apical teeth, 0.25 × as wide as maximum width of clypeus, emargination 0.2 × as deep as wide; apical teeth subtriangular, with slightly pointing out rounded apex, with short longitudinal fold but not carinate; clypeus in lateral view very slightly convex. Vertex 1.35 × as long as distance from posterior ocellus to inner eye margin; cephalic foveae very small and separated by less than their diameter, placed in a small barely depressed area with different sculpture; gena 0.55 × as wide as eye at bottom of ocular sinus, depressed along posterior margin; occipital carina complete, sharp but not raised on vertex, raised in a sharp ridge on gena, evenly and weakly curved in lower half. F1 1.45 × as long as wide and 1.5 × as long as F2, F2–3 subquadrate, F4–9 transverse and becoming progressively shorter. Mesosoma 1.25 × as long as wide. Sides of pronotum in dorsal view convex and converging in dorsal view, weakly sinuate behind humeri; pronotal carina complete, sharp and raised but not lamellate, evenly rounded on humeri; pretegular carina disappearing in upper third; lateral faces of pronotum smoothly passing into dorsal face, weakly depressed in lower half. Mesoscutum 0.9 × as long as wide, evenly convex in lateral view. Scutellum weakly convex; anterior margin crenate, median pit slightly larger than others. Metanotum very weakly convex in lateral view. Tegula not equaling parategula, outer margin strongly convex in the middle, posterior lobe very short and blunt, shallowly depressed with raised posterior margin; parategula small and curved. Epicnemial carina strong and distinct but dull, exceeding epipleural suture and reaching mesosternum. Propodeum falling almost vertically behind metanotum in lateral view; posterior face shallowly concave but sharply separated from other faces; lateral faces distinctly depressed with convex posterodorsal margin; submarginal carina shallowly produced above valvula. T1 more or less trapezoidal, 0.45 × as long as wide in dorsal view; horizontal face weakly depressed on disc; posterior margin thin with a short hyaline lamellar margin. T2 0.85 × as long as wide in dorsal view, apical margin shortly lamellate and yellow-hyaline, transition between tergite and lamella marked by raised lamellar ridge mostly covering the true apical margin medially but disappearing laterally. T3–4 with lamellar apical margin. S2 evenly convex in lateral view.
+
+
+SCULPTURE
+AND
+VESTITURE
+. Clypeus matte, finely shagreened with very fine sparse micropunctures and shallow rounded punctures, latter smaller basally and larger apically with interspaces always wider than one puncture diameter. Frons with shallow flat-bottomed polygonal cells, touching and separated by irregular interspaces reduced to narrow ridges, cells with shiny micropunctate bottom and interspaces matte; vertex shiny with barely visible shagreen and sparse shallow punctures, gena densely micropunctate and very shiny with punctures mostly restricted to anterior margin. Scape matte, shagreened with dense fine punctures. Pronotum, mesoscutum and scutellum with dense deep punctures; interspaces mostly reduced to narrow ridges, partly flattened but narrower than puncture diameter on scutellum; lateral faces of pronotum micropunctate and shiny with sparse shallow punctures. Metanotum with coarse oblique punctures in median area, more finely punctate laterally. Mesepisternum with large flat-bottomed punctures, denser along epicnemial carina and becoming sparser posteriorly, leaving a narrow impunctate area on posterior sloping part; epicnemium and mesosternum finely shagreened and shiny, with sparse fine punctures on mesosternum. Dorsal faces of propodeum with very large and coarse punctures, interspaces mostly reduced to very narrow and sharp raised ridges, anterior third with some shiny and micropunctate flattened interspaces; posterior face very finely micropunctate and shiny, with very fine oblique striae on lower fourth, some shallow punctures along dorsal margin; metaepisternum and lateral faces of propodeum finely shagreened and striate, gradually replaced by elongate flat-bottomed punctures along posterodorsal margin of propodeum. T1 finely shagreened and micropunctate, silky shiny, with sparse barely visible punctures; T2 similar to T1 but micropunctures denser and more evident, macropunctures barely deeper, interspaces more shiny; T3–4 shagreened with coarse and dense oblique punctures; T5–6 shagreened and micropunctate, with very sparse fine punctures; S1 matte and irregularly sculpted; S2 similar to T2 but punctures well marked and deep; S3–6 similar to respective tergites. Head and mesosoma with pale brassy suberect setae; clypeus, lower third of frons, gena and sides of mesosoma with dense whitish pubescence; dorsal and posterior faces of propodeum covered in short white setae, longer on lateral corners; metasoma with dense appressed brassy pubescence, T2–6 and S2–5 with preapical series of suberect longer setae.

+
+
+
+Diagnosis.
+
+Leptorhyparus gilli
+
+is readily distinguished from the other members of the genus by small body (length
+2.3–2.6 mm
+); head lacking distinct tufts of setae; sides of clypeus straight to genae; pronotum having a shortened groove in the posterior interval between the paramedian and discolateral costae that does not reach the anterior fovea, the area between the groove and fovea not raised allowing these costae to appear separated (
+Fig. 2
+); pronotum having a small anterior lobe of the discolateral costa; elytra with postdiscal bulbs reduced; elytra with caudal bulbs smaller and not distinctly visible from ventral view; median impression of metaventrite a narrow line entire length; and it occurs in southern Central America.

+suspected for
+
+L
+.
+brasiliensis
+
+and

+L
+.
+peruanus
+
+, there are variation in details related to the development of the paramedian and discolateral costae of the pronotum, along with the area between them, puncture rows with punctures varying in size and distance, elytral intervals appearing flat or convex depending on the individual, and general size and distinctness of dorsal and ventral punctation. Some of the differences are actual variation between individuals. In others it appears to relate to the visual quality of the structures relating to dirt remnants or angle of lighting. Caution needs to be taken to recognize species differences that hold for series of specimens and not individuals. New species descriptions based on subtle differences of singletons should be avoided.

+Comments.
+There is some variation in the distance between the end of the pronotal groove and the anterior foveae. Lighting must be correct to fully illuminate these structures. Sometimes the interval is more depressed making it appear as if the groove is longer. However, the groove at the bottom of this depressed interval is deep, sharply defined and always well separated from the fovea.

+Diagnosis.
+
+Leptorhyparus quadricornis
+
+is readily distinguished from all other
+Rhyparini
+by the small size and head with four distinct pencil-like tufts of setae. It is a fossil in amber from
+the Dominican
+Republic.
+
+
+
+
+Description.
+Holotype
+length
+2.1 mm
+. Body apparently dark brown or entirely black; shape elongate, parallel-sided (
+Fig. 12
+).
+Head.
+Head with distinct punctures (
+Fig. 9
+). Clypeus with angulate tooth on each side of slightly concave median third of margin (
+Fig. 16
+); edge with narrow elevated bead; centroclypeal disc with 2 low costae. Frons with 4 weak costae, each with a pencil-like tuft of setae.
+Pronotum.
+Pronotum rectangular; costae low, broad, convex (
+Fig. 13, 15
+), weak near anterior margin, almost reaching posterior margin; lateral margin strongly sinuate, anterior and intermediate lobes small.
+Elytron.
+Elytron almost twice as long as head and pronotum combined; sides almost parallel for 4⁄5 of length; all costae low, broad, convex (
+Fig. 13, 15
+); discomedian costa with distinct pencil-like erect setal tuft at caudal apex; caudal bulb divided into inner and outer lobes (
+Fig. 13–15
+).
+Venter.
+Metaventrite appears flattened either side of midline.
+Abdomen.
+Abdomen with length of apical ventrite equal to preceding three combined; all ventrites smooth.
+Legs.
+Meso- and metafemur elongate-oval, not clavate (
+Fig. 17
+). Meso- and metatibia gradually triangularly widening to truncate apex, slightly flattened. Metatibia with small but distinct spine on inner margin. Meso- and metatarsi elongate, first tarsomere as long as next 3 combined, claws minute.
+
+
+
+
+Material examined.
+Holotype
+(
+FSCA
+;
+Fig. 9
+,
+12–17
+) is in dark opaque amber with many cracks and irregularities. A
+paratype
+(
+CEMT
+;
+Fig. 10–11
+) is in transparent amber, but details are not readily visible due to cracks and irregularities in the amber.
+Wu (1996)
+did not state where the specimen imaged in the book was deposited, it was not available for study. The image in
+Wu (1996: 187
+, fig. F-459) was consulted.
+
+
+
+
+Etymology.
+The species epithet is a masculine adjective in the nominative singular meaning four-horned.
+
+
+
+
+Comments.
+The available specimens are poorly visible in the amber, with only some structures visible. Enough are visible to identify them as this species. In all cases, visible setal tufts on the head are unlike any known species of
+Rhyparini
+. Placement in
+
+Leptorhyparus
+
+is based on the small body size, elytral tuft of setae on apex of discomedian costa, smoothly elongate body shape, small pronotal anterior lateral lobes, low costae, and apparently divided caudal bulb of elytra. The
+holotype
+is in a small piece of dark amber that has many cracks and layers preventing easy visibility. However, there were a couple narrow ‘windows’ of clarity that allowed some photography. With digital enhancement, the images presented here allowed for the description above. A better specimen or use of high-tech Micro CT imaging systems may allow a better description to be made someday. Naming it now documents the species for future studies.

+Diagnosis.
+
+Leptorhyparus brasiliensis
+
+is readily distinguished from the other members of the genus by the smaller body (length
+1.98–2.60 mm
+); head lacking distinct tufts of setae; sides of clypeus distinctly sinuate before genae; pronotum having a long groove in the interval on the outside margin of the costa that reaches the anterior fovea, distinctly separating the paramedian and discolateral costae (
+Fig. 1
+); pronotum having a small anterior lobe of the discolateral costa; elytra with postdiscal bulbs reduced; elytra with caudal bulbs small and not distinctly visible in ventral view (
+Fig. 4
+); median impression of metaventrite widening posteriorly; epipharynx transverse with deeply emarginate anterior margin (
+Fig. 6
+); male genitalia with phallobase tubular (
+Fig. 7–8
+); parameres 1/3 length of phallobase, symmetrical broadly rounded in caudal view; and it occurs widely in South America east of the Andes.
+
+
+
+
+Variation.
+Howden (2003)
+noted some variation in
+
+L
+.
+gilli
+
+, and similar, subtle variation is seen in the small series available for
+
+L
+.
+brasiliensis
+
+. Variation was seen in the size and distinctness of dorsal and ventral punctation. Some of this apparent variability is related to the amount of encrustation over the structure. Although not all were dissected, it appears the Brazilian specimens are all female, while the
+French Guiana
+specimens are all male. The Brazilian specimens are slightly larger than those from
+French Guiana

Head covered in black scales apart from small patch of white scales on vertex in center, and patches of brown scales scattered along the inner eye margins, especially in the notch. Pronotum covered in white and orange scales, especially on outer thirds, with patches of black scales mostly on inner third. Only the right elytron remains on the specimen. Prominent white fascia crosses the elytron extending down the elytral suture from the scutellum for about 2/5 of the length of the elytron, extending across the elytron as an expanding band to cover ½ of the length of the elytron at the margin. White fascia almost entirely an unbroken block of white scales apart from small patches of black scales sub-sutural and sub marginal, 1/3 down elytron in both cases, and a few black scales at the lower marginal edge of the white fascia.

+
+Description, internal characteristics.
+Aedeagus (
+Fig. 2A
+) has broad parameres (PL = 373 µm). Parameres have rounded lateral margins, curving into relatively sharp apices that angle in towards each other. The apical 2/5 of the inner margins are almost parallel where they narrow sharply and continue to the anterior end as relatively narrow curved rods. The surface of the broad, paddle shaped terminal 2/5 of each paramere is covered in long, narrow setae that point inwards towards the median lobe. Posterior tips of parameres pale. Median lobe very broad at base that narrows gradually to blunt, rounded, slightly expanded tip, and is slightly shorter than the parameres.
+
+
+Sternite IX (
+Fig. 2B
+, SL = 473 µm) with broad posterior lobe. The apex is clear laterally, the rest of the sternite is pale brown. The medial apex of the posterior lobe is a smooth, shallow curve. The clear lateral components of the apex are covered in setae, longest towards the lateral corners and absent along the apical margin. The setae extend down the lateral margins becoming progressively shorter to the mid-point where the margins narrow to form a neck. From the neck, the margins diverge and continue as smooth curves to the anterior, ending in two narrow, curved horns.

+Anthrenus
+(
+Anthrenus
+)
+querneri
+
+is named after the collector, Pascal Querner, who is the IPM manager for the Museum of Natural History,
+Vienna
+.
+
+
+
+
+Differential diagnosis.
+Initially,
+
+A. querneri
+
+was misidentified as
+
+A. pimpinellae
+
+(
+Fig. 4A
+).
+
+Anthrenus pimpinellae
+
+white fascia is much narrower than
+
+A. querneri
+
+and overall
+
+A. pimpinellae
+
+has a narrower profile than
+
+A. querneri
+
+.
+Holloway and Bakaloudis (2020)
+provide a BW/BL value of 0.688 ± 0.029 for
+
+A. pimpinellae
+
+, and BW/BL for
+
+A. querneri
+
+holotype
+is 0.736, indicating that
+
+A. querneri
+
+is broader than an average
+
+A. pimpinellae
+
+. It is not obvious that the ventrites (
+Fig. 4B
+) and the antennal structure (
+Fig. 4C
+) differ between
+
+A. querneri
+
+and
+
+A. pimpinellae
+
+, although perhaps
+
+A. querneri
+
+ventrites are covered in cleaner white scales than
+
+A. pimpinellae
+
+.

+
+
+
+
+Anthrenus pimpinellae
+
+parameres (
+Fig. 5A
+) have more strongly curved lateral margins than
+
+A. querneri
+
+. On the inner margin, the paramere paddles are longer than
+
+A. querneri
+
+, extending more than half the length of the paramere, whereas the paddles of
+
+A. querneri
+
+are considerably less than half the paramere length.
+
+Anthrenus pimpinellae
+
+median lobe is broad at the base but narrows more sharply than
+
+A. querneri
+
+terminating in a long, slim apex, much slimmer than
+
+A. querneri
+
+.
+
+
+
+Anthrenus pimpinellae
+
+sternite IX (
+Fig. 5B
+) is almost entirely pale brown with only the very outer apical edges of the posterior lobe being clear. All setae are longer than
+
+A. querneri
+
+and clustered along the margins rather than spreading into the posterior lobe disc as in
+
+A. querneri
+
+.

+(
+Minas Gerais
+). According to
+Martins (1979)
+, the
+holotype
+is a male. However, it is a female. Although it was not mentioned in the original description, the posterior half of the dorsal surface of the scape of
+
+H. glaberrimus
+
+is transversely rugose (but also with distinct punctures), especially on the posterior third, and does not have an apical cicatrix as mentioned by
+Martins and Monné (2002)
+.

+Description
+(translation of
+
+Plocaederus
+sensu
+Martins and Monné 2002
+
+). “Head slightly narrower than prothorax. Frons from subquadrangular to wider than long. Frontoclypeal suture arched, well-marked. Median groove distinct between antennal tubercles, posteriorly prolonged as carina; area between upper eye lobes elevated and ending posteriorly in a small triangular depression. Eyes large, well-projected, narrowed between the lobes behind antennae. Upper eye lobes developed, separated by a distance equivalent to 1–4 rows of ommatidia (distance slightly variable in the sexes). Lower eye lobes reaching the ventral surface of the head, closer to each other than the insertion of the maxillae. Antennal tubercles slightly projected, distant from each other. Antennae in males longer than in females, often reaching the elytral apex about middle of antennomere VIII. In females, the antennae are almost as long or slightly longer than the body. Scape subcylindrical or gradually widened toward apex; length about 1/3 of the length of the antennomere III. Scape without apical cicatrix or with the cicatrix variable: from very distinct to slightly distinct. Scape coarsely punctate; outer side of apex with or without striae; in some species, with a small gibbosity on outer side of apical third. Antennomere III about 1/3 longer than scape, without carinae and rarely sulcate; apex nodose, without spine or with short spine transverse to the antennal axis. Antennomere IV shorter than III and V; apex nodose or with short spine, transverse to the antennal axis. Antennomere V with long spine, more or less perpendicular to the antennal axis; rarely this spine is just longer than in the next antennomeres; inner area to the spine often with sensorial setae and, sometimes, carinated in this region. Antennomeres VI–X with apical spine, gradually shorter toward X, carinate or not along middle. In males, antennomere XI slightly longer than X, often appendiculate; in females, as long as X. Prothorax wider than long, with variable basal and apical constriction. Sides of prothorax with a short central spine and a well-marked or slightly marked anterolateral tubercle. Pronotum transversely rugose in most species; centrobasal region without gibbosity or with well-marked gibbosity, pubescence of variable density, from practically glabrous to moderately pubescent. Sides of prothorax rugose, distinctly separated from the prosternum, which has no wrinkles. Prosternum transversely depressed centrally, with variable pubescence. Procoxal cavities closed behind, angulated laterally. Prosternal process truncate, with tubercle turned toward mesoventrite, sometimes, slightly projected or with vertical tubercle. Mesoventrite transversely depressed centrally; mesoventral process emarginated apically, without or with tubercle, when present, often vertical. Apex of metanepisternum with short and spiniform projection. Metaventrite slightly convex, with variable pubescence; metakatepisternal suture well-marked; metathoracic discrimen not reaching mesoventrite. Elytra with variable apex, spiniform, transversely truncate or rounded; pubescence variable, from entirely glabrous to distinctly pubescent; without dorsal carinae. Femora fusiform; apex of metafemora unarmed, with acute projections or with inner apex with long spine. Tibiae slightly widened toward apex; metatibiae without carina. Metatarsomere I shorter than or as long as II–III together. Abdominal ventrites with variable pubescence.”

+
+Remarks.
+Currently, the type species indicated for
+
+Plocaederus
+sensu
+Martins and Monné (2002)
+
+is
+
+Cerambyx plicatus
+Olivier, 1790
+
+. However, the original description and figure by
+Olivier (1790)
+do not allow us to be sure about the identity of the species. The
+holotype
+originally belonged to
+Mr. Pâris
+collection (
+Olivier 1795
+), and
+Olivier (1790
+,
+1795
+) did not know where it came from. Thus, we prefer to designate
+
+Plocaederus bipartitus
+
+as the type species.

+
+
+
+
+
+Remarks.
+
+Hamaederus fragosoi
+
+was described based on a single female from
+Brazil
+(
+Amapá
+). The
+holotype
+was destroyed during the fire in 2018 at the MNRJ.
+Martins et al. (2008)
+reported the species from
+French Guiana
+, and
+Martins et al. (2014)
+from the Brazilian state of Ceará.
+
+
+According to
+Martins and Monné (2002)
+(translated): “The absence of tubercle in the mesoventral process separates
+
+P. fragosoi
+
+from
+
+P. bipartitus
+
+,
+
+P. glabricollis
+
+,
+
+P rugosus
+,
+
+and
+
+P. rusticus
+
+, species whose mesoventral process is provided with a tubercle. It is more similar to
+
+P. glaberrimus
+
+and differs in its general color, in the apical spines of non-divergent elytra, and in the upper ocular lobes as far apart as a row of ommatidia. In
+
+P. glaberrimus
+
+, the elytral spines are markedly divergent and the upper ocular lobes are separated by a distance equal to two rows of ommatidia.” In fact,
+
+H. fragosoi
+
+is much more similar to
+
+H. bipartitus
+
+. With the finding that the tubercle of the mesoventral process may be absent in
+
+H. bipartitus
+
+, as in
+
+H. fragosoi
+
+(
+Fig. 17
+), the only reliable difference between these two species is the shape of the apex of antennomeres III and IV: nodose or subnodose in
+
+H. fragosoi
+
+(
+Fig. 16
+), distinctly projected in
+
+H. bipartitus
+
+(
+Fig. 4
+). This feature does not vary in other species (including those of which we examined a large number of specimens).

Area behind lower eye lobes coarsely, abundantly, partially confluently punctate superiorly; finely, sparsely punctate toward ventral surface; with a few long, erect yellowish-brown setae close to eyes. Clypeus coarsely, confluently punctate; with long, erect yellowish-brown setae. Mandibles with moderately large, conical tooth on inner margin, bifid apically; outer margin with long, erect yellowish-brown setae on posterior 2/3. Gulamentum smooth glabrous posteriorly; coarsely, sparsely punctate, glabrous between eyes. Eyes large; distance between upper eye lobes 0.27 times distance between outer margins of eyes; ventrally, distance between lower eye lobes 0.41 times distance between outer margins of eyes. Antennae 1.1 times elytral length, almost reaching posterior quarter of the elytra. Scape short, arched, abruptly widened basally, somewhat finely punctate dorsally and laterally; glabrous dorsally and laterally, with long, erect, moderately sparse yellowish-brown setae ventrally. Pedicel short, widened toward apex, with long, erect, sparse yellowish-brown setae ventrally and dorsally. Antennomere III almost twice length of IV; slightly tumid and slightly arched apically; finely, sparsely punctate; with long, erect, moderately abundant yellowish-brown setae ventrally (setae not dense). Antennomeres IV–X with gradually decreasing length; with long, erect, moderately abundant yellowish-brown setae ventrally (setae gradually shorter and sparser toward X) and sparse, suberect, short setae dorsally. Antennomere XI about 1.5 times length of X, narrowed on apical third, with acute apex.

Prosternum finely, sparsely punctate (punctures slightly more abundant laterally, absent on anterocentral area), except narrow anterior area transversely striate; with long, erect, moderately sparse yellowish-brown setae, absent centrally. Prosternal process with sides slightly elevated, gradually narrowed toward apex (abruptly narrowing near apex). Mesoventrite smooth, glabrous centrally, finely punctate, with long, abundant yellowish-brown setae laterally not obscuring integument; mesanepisternum and mesepimeron with setae as on sides of mesoventrite. Metanepisternum and metaventrite with long, dense yellowish-brown setae obscuring integument, except glabrous area along metathoracic discrimen; metanepisternum wide, gradually narrowed toward its apex from middle. Scutellum glabrous, nearly smooth.

+
+
+
+
+Diagnosis.
+
+Priscyparus
+
+is easily recognized by a combination of characters, including shorter body, broader anteriorly, narrowing posteriorly; pronotal lateral marginal lobes with anterior lobe much larger than dentate intermediate lobe; elytron with discomedian costa lacking caudal tuft of setae; elytron with discomedian costa and caudal bulb projecting posteriorly; metaventrite flattened, lacking discal fovea on each side of midline; protibia with 3 apical teeth; mesotibia the
+
+Rhyparus
+
+-
+type
+, with male having an inwardly projecting apical spine; meso- and metatarsi shortened, thickened; and the unique potential male dimorphism of a prominent peg on each side of the abdomen. It is a fossil preserved in amber from
+the Dominican
+Republic (
+Fig. 1
+).
+
+
+
+
+Etymology.
+The genus name is derived from combining the adjective
+priscus
+, which is Latin for ancient, former or early, with the ending -
+yparus
+from
+
+Rhyparus
+
+. It is masculine in gender.

+FSCA
+.
+Two paratype specimens
+labeled to be from “Alto de las Piedras,
+Dominican Republic
+” (
+FSCA
+) were also studied.
+These
+paratypes
+are mostly enclosed in bubbles (

+), making structural details poorly visible.
+
+
+
+
+
+Etymology.
+The species epithet comes from Hispaniola, which was called Quisqueya by the aboriginal Taíno people. The species name is Latinized with -
+ensis
+, so the full name of this species means the “ancient
+
+Rhyparus
+
+from Quisqueya.”
+
+
+
+
+Comments.
+This species is unusual in its combination of characters, as well as having a few unique characters. The pronotal costae are greatly raised, even more than is seen in
+
+Termitodius
+
+. Most other characters are similar to
+
+Termitodiellus
+Nakane
+
+from SE Asia,
+Indonesia
+and New
+Guinea
+. The elongate, posteriorly projecting discomedian costa and caudal bulb of the elytra are seen in
+
+Termitodiellus besucheti
+(Paulian)
+
+and
+
+Termitodiellus hammondi
+(Krikken and Huijbregts)
+
+from Borneo and Sumatra (
+Krikken and Huijbregts 1987
+, fig. 13–14). However,
+
+Termitodius
+
+and
+
+Termitodiellus
+
+have different tibial
+types
+than
+
+Priscyparus
+
+which has a mesotibia with an inwardly directed spine on inner apex. This is the
+
+Rhyparus
+
+-
+type
+tibia found in
+
+Rhyparus
+
+and closely related genera (
+Skelley 2007
+).

+
+The

+is in a piece of amber with a host termite (
+Fig. 1
+). Other rhyparine species are guests in termite colonies (
+Reyes-Castillo and Martínez 1979
+). Amber
+
+Coptotermes
+Wasmann
+
+(Isoptera:
+Rhinotermitidae
+) are reported from
+the Dominican
+Republic by Krisna and Grimaldi (2009).

+
+
+
+Diagnosis.
+
+Fractipes
+
+differs from all other genera of Neotropical
+Eumolpinae
+by the very large size of the male metafemoral projection.
+
+Fractipes tayrona
+
+differs from the two other described species in this genus by the lack of a notch or emargination at the apex of the male hind tibia, by the shape of the projection on the ventral side of the metafemur (
+Fig. 5, 8–9
+), and by the dense short setae on the ventral side of male antennomeres 4–6.
