Temnocerus cyanellus can be recognized by the unexposed pygidium, by the rostrum that enlarges abruptly in the apical ¼, by the strongly protuberant eyes, and by the distinctly wider than long pronotum that narrows apically. Figures 19–20. Temnocerus aeratus (Say) . 19) Habitus, dorsal view. 20) Habitus, lateral view. Description. Length of male 2.4–3.4 mm , of female 2.3–2.5 mm . Integument black with bluish, aeneus and purple reflections, antennae and extremities of legs somewhat paler. Head quadrate, with dense, round, setiferous punctures; interpuncture space minutely granulose, becoming longitudinally rugose in front. Rostrum enlarged rather abruptly in apical ¼ to a width subequal to frons; sides in dorsal view nearly parallel; slightly arcuate; in male length about 1.0× pronotal length, in female 1.6× pronotal length. Frons with interspaces minutely rugose. Eyes rather strongly protuberant. Antennae inserted further from rostral base, insertion to antennal margin of eye much greater than diameter of eye; in male inserted between basal ½ and ¼ of rostrum, in female inserted at basal 1/3 of rostrum. Pronotum distinctly wider than long, narrowed apically, widest behind middle; disc with round, shallow setiferous punctures, interpuncture space finely grooved. Elytral length 3.0× pronotal length, width 2.0× pronotal width; striae not impressed, with deep, quadrate to oval punctures; interstriae about 0.5× strial width, each interstria with 1 row of fine, round, setiferous punctures. Pygidium covered by elytra. Sexual dimorphism present in size, rostrum and antennal insertion. Figures 21–22. Temnocerus cyanellus (LeConte) . 2 1) Habitus, dorsal view. 2 2) Habitus, lateral view.
