( Figs. 77 , 111 , 150 ) Material examined. Holotype ♀ - Pakistan : Islamabad , Sect. 7 ( 33°43'N , 73°03'E ), 600 m , 1- 15.IX.2012 , G. Sabatinelli leg., at light ( CPG ). 1 Paratype ♀ - same as HT and 15.VI.2012 ( CPG ). Diagnosis. A very small Conoderus Eschscholtz, 1829 wiTH THe “FAcies” oF AN Aeoloderma Fleutiaux, 1928 species but immediately distinct for a very small carina on the posterior angles of pronotum. Description. Female. Moderately shiny; bicoloured; entirely yellowish except for the head, an anchor-like spot on the middle of pronotum, base of elytra, second to third or to fifth interstriae extended to the eighth before the apex, blackish; antennae, legs and underside yellowish; covered with short, recumbent, dense, yellow-fulvous pubescence. Frons flat or slightly convex, anterior margin complete, substraight, just protruding above the clypeus; punctures moderate, deep, simple with intervals on average equal to their own diameters. Antennae not reaching for about 1.5 articles the apices of posterior angle of pronotum, very feebly serrated from the fourth article on; second article subcylindrical, third subconical a little longer than the second; second and third, taken together, 2.3x longer than fourth; fourth to tenth conical to subtriangular, the fourth a little longer than the following, these on average twice longer than wide, the last one a little longer than penultimate, subellipsoidal. Pronotum as long as wide to a little longer, widest just behind the middle, convex, abruptly sloping at sides and at base; sides very feebly and regularly arcuate, just sinuate before the posterior angles, the latter acuminate, slightly divergent, with a short carina, a little apparent, extremely close to the lateral margins, these complete and visible only for a very short stretch in a dorsal view; punctuation uniformly distributed, punctures of approximately the same size, simple or slightly umbilicate with very short, shiny intervals. Scutellum quadrangular, ridged at base, moderately convex and very finely punctured. Elytra 2.00-2,04x longer than the pronotum and as wide as it, convex; sides subparallel from the base to behind the middle, striae well marked and deeply punctured; interstriae subconvex densely and more finely punctured. Fourth article of tarsi deeply impressed from the base to receive the last article. Male unknown. Size. Length 4.35-5.00 mm; width 1.21-1.31 mm. Etymology. The name is derived from the very high similarity in the pattern of body colour to some species of the genus Aeoloderma .
