Description:
Habitus and coloring (
Fig. 3
) similar to
Scopaeus javanus
(
Figs 1, 2
) and
S. riedeli
(
Fig. 4
), different as follows: Brachypterous form, possibly dominant according to
type
specimens, with or without palisade fringe at posterior margin of abdominal tergite VII; only
one specimen
from Lombok macropterous with fully developed metathoracic wings. Unicolorous orange-brown specimens unknown. Total body length 3.0 –
3.3 mm
; forebody length
1.6 – 1.7 mm
.
Male: Abdominal sternites VII and VIII (
Fig. 120
) as in
S. javanus
(
Fig. 119
) and
S. riedeli
(
Fig. 121
). Aedeagus (
Figs 28
,
53 – 55
) about
0.8 mm
long, similar to that of
S. javanus
(
Figs 27
,
50 – 52
) and
S. riedeli
(29, 56 – 58), but different as follows: Apical lobes with strong, ventroapical emargination (
Fig. 28
,
Fig. 53
: arrow
III
); in ventral and dorsal view, apical lobes more slender, more parallel towards each other, less curved apicomediad and with subtruncate ends (
Fig. 54
: arrow
V
,
Fig. 55
); dorsal lobe, in lateral view, with narrow apex (
Fig. 28
,
Fig. 53
: arrow
IV
).
Female: Sperm pump as in
Fig. 147
; bursa membranous.
Distribution:
Scopaeus batukaruensis
is distributed in the
Lesser Sunda Islands
Bali
and Lombok.
Etymology:
With the epithet
batukaruensis
(adjective, Latin, composed of the geographic name Batukaru and the suffix –
ensis
, which indicates the geographical origin) reference is made to Mount Batukaru in
Bali
, where most of the
type
specimens were collected.
