Schedlia
Browne, 1950b: 641.
Type species.
Xyleborus sumatranus
Hagedorn, 1908; original designation.
Diagnosis.
Schedlia
species are large and stout (4.2-5.3 mm; 2.15-2.5
x
as long as wide) and distinguished by the scutellum absent; elytral disc minutely rugose and punctate; declivity clearly distinct from disc, obliquely truncate, impunctate, coarsely granulate to tuberculate; elytral bases costate, curved, with conspicuous medial tufts of setae denoting an elytral mycangium; antennal club flattened, type 4, pubescent; pronotum type 4 in lateral view; protibiae sickle-like, inflated and granulate on posterior face; and procoxae contiguous.
Schedlia
can be distinguished from
Ambrosiodmus
by the lack of scutellum, and from
Coptodryas
by the declivity clearly separated from disc.
Similar genera.
Ambrosiodmus
,
Coptodryas
.
Distribution.
Paleotropical.
Gallery system.
The unbranched radial entrance tunnel leads to a single large brood chamber in the longitudinal plane (

Remarks.
Schedlia
species are
Dipterocarpaceae
specialists.
