A new species of the genus Apatenia (Coleoptera: Anthribidae) from Madagascar with notes on female genitalia, redescription of the female of Apatenia quadristigma Frieser and list of Madagascan species Author TRÝZNA, MILOŠ Author BAŇAŘ, PETR text Zootaxa 2013 2013-02-01 3609 5 504 512 http://dx.doi.org/10.11646/zootaxa.3609.5.6 journal article 10.11646/zootaxa.3609.5.6 1175-5326 D710A4F0-F816-4ECA-9BEB-92DBED2FC58A Apatenia Pascoe, 1859 Type species: Apatenia viduata Pascoe, 1859: 434 , by original designation. Recognition. Head long, narrow, rostrum lengthened, flat and broad, mandibles robust, strongly toothed. Eyes laterally situated. Antennae inserted at about midway between anterior margin of eyes and mandibles and longer than head, first two segments thick, third to sixth more or less cylindrical, seventh to to eighth subtriangular, ninth to eleventh forming loose club with the first two segments triangular and the last one rounded. Prothorax slightly transverse, narrow in front. Dorsal transverse carina convex in the middle, its lateral margins directed anteriorly to about halfway along the side of prothorax. Elytra slightly depressed. Legs moderate, tarsi rather short. Notes . The classification of the genera Apatenia and Phaulimia need to be revised. Apatenia stysi Trýzna & Baňař sp. nov. belongs to the ‘ Apatenia’ lineage based on the character states listed above. Both genera contain numerous species, occur in a large area (Oriental + Afrotropical regions), and generic descriptions were based upon the description of the first included species and have not been suitably adjusted to accomodate subsequent species. It is likely that the two genera will be maintained but perhaps with different species compositions. This is the subject of a future study.
