(T.) pseudolanaoensis sp. nov. , male, holotype; A – dorsal view; D – lateral view; B – aedegal body, lateral view; sternite IX. Description. Holotype , male. ( Fig. 7A ) Dimensions: LB: 6,6, LR: 1,4, WR: 1,1, LP: 2,2, WP: 2,1, LE: 4,4, WE: 2,9. N = 1 for all measurements. Coloration. Integument black, shiny, with markings of round, shiny orange scales. 292 Head. Dorsal surface slightly rugose, with single orange scales; surface between eyes with short white setae at basal part; genae with longer, white to metallic green setae; moderate medial longitudinal groove from base of the eyes to base anterior margin of prothorax; transverse, moderate furrow at base of eyes confluent with medial longitudinal groove, not reaching lateral margins; eyes moderate, weakly convex from outline of head. Fig. 8. Habitus of M. (M.) lanaoensis Bollino, 2021 ; A – dorsal view; B – lateral view. Rostrum. ( Fig. 1E ) longer than wide (LR/WR: 1,27), granulate in all length; short white setae at basal part; dorsum with shallow medial longitudinal furrow and corresponding shallow concavity; in dorsal contour straight; lateral parts covered with long white to shiny green setae. Antennae with funicular segment I 1,5 times longer than II, segment II nearly two times longer than III, segments III – VI as long as wide, segment VII larger, wider than long. Prothorax sub globular, nearly same width and length (LP/WP: 1,04), strongly rugose, 293 without setae or pubescence on disc; widest just at the middle; with the following markings of round, shiny orange shales: 1) transverse line along anterior margin in all length; 2) transverse line just after the middle in all length; shallow longitudinal medial groove on disc; anterior margin with short pubescence. Elytra sub-ellipsoidal, (LE/WE: 1,51), wider than prothorax, twice as long as prothorax (WE/WP: 1,38; LE/LP: 2,0); rugose in all length, without expressed puncture rows; with short brown setae along suture from apical ½ to apex; each elytron with the following scally markings of round shiny orange scales: 1) two irregular spots at basal part; 2) 4-5 smaller spots at medial part; 3) three elongated longitudinal spots at apical part; 4) one longitudinal line at apical part near suture. Male genitalia as shown in Fig. 7 B-C. Female unknown. Differential analyses. The new species by scally markings on prothorax and elytra can be referred to M. (M.) lanaoensis Bollino, 2021 ( Fig. 8 , Fig. 1F ) but can be easily distinguished by features of rostrum that refers species to subgenera Trachycyrtus . Distribution. Mindanao Island, Agusan Province. Etymology. The specific epithet is related to similar general appearance to M. (M.) lanaoensis Bollino, 2021 .
