Figs 5 , 19–25 , 36 Etymology: Named after my friend Jonathan Cooter, Hereford, who arranged the loan of this species to me, and who is always ready to help me with manuscript drafts of my papers. Differential diagnosis: This species is most closely related to N . capensis , from which it differs by having a well-defined longitudinal sulcus on the pronotum, the abdomen wider than the elytra, a larger triangular tooth of the mesofemora. it differs further from N . majusculus by the different shape of the mesofemora. Figs 20–25. Details of Novoclaviger joncooteri : (20) aedeagus, lateral aspect; (21) middle leg; (22) hind leg; (23) meso- and metacoxae; (24) elytron; (25) abdomen.
