Atomothenemus
Bright, 2019: 106
Type
of genus
Atomothenemus unicus
Bright, 2019
.
Diagnosis
Antennae with two funicle segments (including the pedicel), antennal club with horizontal sutures.
Female
Eye emarginated. Antennae with two funicle segments (including the pedicel). Antennal club with two horizontal sutures visible as rows of setae. Frons convex with weak impression in center. Marginal asperities broadly spaced. Pronotal summit distinctly elevated. Sparse scale-like setae on pronotal disc. Scale-like setae on pronotum. Total length approx. 0.8 mm.
Male
Unknown.
Distribution
Dominican Republic
.
Remarks
Monotypic. This genus was described in the final stages of this manuscript preparation. Without molecular and internal characters examined, the placement within Trypophloeini is not confirmed. Only one specimen is known, the correct placement will be assessed when more specimens are available. Several of the diagnostic characters match
Hypothenemus distinctus
Wood, 1954
and
H. piaparolinae
Johnson, Atkinson and Hulcr, 2016
, the latter is confirmed as
Hypothenemus
based on the proventriculus and molecular data.
