Rukmane A. 2019’’ (red rectangular label, printed) . Distribution: Luzon Island, Ilocos Province. Description. Male. Measurements ( Holotype ): LB: 13.3; LR: 1.9; WR: 2.0; LP: 4.8; WP: 3.9; LE: 8.7; WE: 5.9. Rostrum wider than long, LR/WR 1.05; pronotum longer than wide, LP/WP 1.23; elytra nearly 1.5 times longer than wide, LE/WE 1.47; elytra nearly two times as long as prothorax, LE/LP 1.81; elytra wider than peothorax, WE/WP 1.51. Body surface black, shiny, with pale green, orange and yellow markings. Dorsal habitus as shown in Fig. 1E . Prothorax with the following markings of round scales: 1) suboval dorso-lateral patch on each side; 2) basal subtriangular patch on middle of subbasal part; 3) two small round patches along apical margin, each redirected laterally. Each elytron with twelve ovate to elliptic patches of pale green round scales, each patch covered with line of orange, yellow or golden scales; patches may be isolated or confluent: 1) six patches on basal half, two smaller, redirected medially, four bigger, confluent, along basal ½ from interval I to lateral margin; 2) two sutural patches, one slightly after midline, one on apical ½; 3) three oval patches on apical ½, from interval II to lateral margin, confluent; 4) triangular patch near apex. Metasternum covered with round pale green to golden round scales; two patches on ventrite I, each redirected laterally; round patch of scales on each side of ventrite II. Aedeagus as illustrated in Fig. 4 C-D. Female. Measurements: LB: 14.7; LR: 2.1; WR: 2.2; LP : 4.9; WP: 4.4; LE : 9.9; WE: 7.0. Elytra wider than in male, more strongly convex. Dorsal habitus as shown in Fig. 1F . Differential analyses. This species is delimitated from P.congestus ssp. congestus mainly by its unusual coloration and geographical isolation. Due to my research on genus Pachyrhynchus , such form of the current species is familiar only for Ilocos, Adams, and can’t be found on any other part of the Luzon Island. Etymology. This species was named after Aedam Stephen Layron in appreciation of cooperation and possibility to study current material.
