Type material. Complete label data for type material (holotype (FSCA), allotype, and 63 paratypes) are provided in the original description. Diagnosis. This species is readily separated from similarly colored member of the palliatus species group, S. alternans , by the punctate elytral intervals next to the basal ridge. Additionally, some specimens have intervals 6-7 or 6-8 diffusely paler than the elytral disc but darker than the pale apical fascia. Descriptive notes. Data for SBL in Table 1. Habitus as in Fig. 49D. Clypeus and labrum with anterior margin of each shallowly concave. Head, pronotum and elytra with mesh pattern isodiametric Antennae, mouthparts and legs testaceous to slightly darker. Dorsal and ventral surface rufo-brunneous to nearly piceous; dorsal surface with faint aeneous/cupreous metallic luster. Elytron bicolored, with apical fascia testaceous to slightly darker, pale marking of 2 nd- 5th intervals short, pale marking of 1st and 6 th- 9th intervals longer; intervals 6-7 or 6-8 may be diffusely paler than elytral disc but darker than apical fascia. Elytral epipleuron pale, same color as the legs. Elytral striae impunctate, except the standard setigerous punctures in striae 2, 5 and 7. Punctures of striae 2, 5 and 7 foveate. Elytron with intervals finely punctate basally near basal ridge. Males with two terminal setae and females with four terminal setae near the posterior margin on sternum VII. Male genitalia. Fig. 51 A-C . Apical portion of phallic median lobe moderately long, triangular, symmetrically rounded in dorsal/ventral aspect; endophallus with 4 microtrichial spine fields, spines thin and short; without lamina. Ovipositor and female reproductive tract. Fig. 52B. Gonocoxite 2 moderately long, thick, slightly falcate. Bursa copulatrix moderately long; large sausage-like spermatheca (sp) originating near base of common oviduct, with proximal one third attached to common oviduct; long spermathecal gland duct (spgd) originating near middle of bulb of spermatheca; spermathecal gland (spg) small, bulbous. Geographical distribution. Fig. 53. This species is known only from the Lesser Antillean islands of Grenada and Mayreau in the West Indies. Chorological affinities and relationships. The range of this species is overlapped by the range of S. alternans . Relationships of S. woodruffi are not postulated beyond species group membership. Material examined. In addition to type material, we have seen a total of 70 specimens (49 males, 21 females). See Appendix for details.
