Dorsal habitus (a) Chlaenius ( Chlaeniostenus ) circumdatus circumdatus Brullé, 1835 ; (b) Chlaenius ( Chlaeniostenus ) nitidicollis Dejean, 1826 ; (c) Chlaenius ( Chlaeniostenus ) pulcher Nietner, 1857 ; (d) Chlaenius ( Epomis ) duvaucelii ( Dejean, 1831 ) . No females were studied / available for study. Diagnosis. Head, pronotum and elytra metallic dark cyan green. Antennal articles I–III, legs except tarsus and elytral border interval IX yellowish brown. Palpomeres, antennal articles IV–IX, all tarsus reddish brown. Maxillary palpi terminal article truncate. Clypeus smooth, frons sides sparsely punctate towards eyes and smooth at midpoint; vertex and neck area densely covered with deep setiferous punctures. Pronotum, wider than long, apical margin moderately covered with deep setiferous punctures becoming denser towards basal margin, posterior angles obtuse, base slightly concave at midpoint slightly oblique to sides. Elytral striae fine, shallow and distinctly punctate; intervals, slightly raised and densely setiferous punctate. Comments. This species differs from Chleanius ( Epomis ) nigricans Wiedemann, 1821 on the following basis, head and pronotum with metallic coppery to green tinge; elytra black with metallic green tinge at base and lateral margin, intervals convex laterally with wide deep setiferous punctures/fovae and middle mostly smooth, interval VIII & IX densely setiferous punctate. In this current study, this species was recorded from Islamabad and Abootabad. This is the first time this species is reported from Pakistan . Earlier, Ch. duvacelii was recorded only from India . Distribution. India (Anichtchenko 2017; Lorenz 2018 ) and Pakistan (first country record).
