Description:
Habitus and coloring as in
Fig. 19
. Head subquadrate. Penultimate antennal segment quadrate. Mesotibia moderately thickened. Body surface subnitid with fine, dense, setose punctation; microreticulation obtuse or absent. Pubescence of body surface short, decumbent, without conspicuous macrosetae. Forebody dark brown; abdomen medium brown with blackened disk of abdominal segments to unicolorous black-brown; posterior margin of elytra and tip of abdomen medium brown; maxillary palpi light brown; antennae unicolorous light brown or with darker median segments, in dark specimens from blackened scapus gradually lighter towards light brown terminal segments. Total body length
3.6 – 4.3 mm
; forebody length
2.1 – 2.3 mm
.
Male: Abdominal sternite VII with unmodified posterior margin. Emargination of abdominal sternite VIII very short, shaped like transverse ‘}’, occupying posterior tenth of sternite length only (Fig. 137). Aedeagus (
Figs 44
,
101 – 103
) about 1.0 mm long, with short distal lobes; apical lobes in lateral view slender with hooked ventrad curved apices divided in strongly sclerotized distal and membranous proximal part (
Figs 44
,
101
), membranous and convex laterally with parallel, mediad curved subtruncate ends (
Fig. 102
) connected by transverse, mediodistal bridge (
Fig. 103
: arrow
III
); dorsal lobe in lateral view with acute end, triangularly widened ventrad and projecting from apical lobes ventrally, in ventral and dorsal view widely convex with minute, apicomedian incision (
Figs 102, 103
); flagellum short, not projecting ventrally (
Figs 44
,
101 – 103
); lateral lobes large, strongly projecting ventrolaterally, each with membranous, strip-like, proximal enlargement (
Fig. 102
: arrow
II
) and group of ventromediad pointing setae; ventral lobe large, strongly projecting ventrodistad, with convex end in lateral and ventral view (
Figs 44
,
101, 102
); median foramen small, shaped like transverse crescent moon, with transverse ridge projecting ventrally (
Figs 44
,
101
).
Female: Chamber of sperm pump with short, curved apophysis; bursal duct about as long as sperm pump; bursa with strongly sclerotized end (
Fig. 172
).
Distribution:
Scopaeus uncinatus
is hitherto known from western
Java
only. It was collected at the edge of Mount Halimun-Salak National Park in
Banten
and
Jawa Barat
.
Etymology:
The epithet
uncinatus
(adjective, Latin: ‘hook-shaped’) refers to the hooked apical lobes of the aedeagus of this new species (
Figs 44
,
101
).
