Molecular phylogeny in ' nano-weevils': description of a new subgenus Nanoacalles and two new species of Calacalles from the Macaronesian Islands (Curculionidae: Cryptorhynchinae) Author Astrin, Jonas J. Author Stüben, Peter E. text Zootaxa 2009 2300 51 67 journal article 10.5281/zenodo.191696 61f72232-2748-4e7b-ac80-403b193e2f76 1175-5326 191696 Calacalles ( Nanoacalles ) palmensis (Roudier, 1954) stat. nov. , resyn. ( Figs. 19 , 27 ) In an earlier study (Astrin & Stüben, 2008), we examined a female of this species (from Mt. Tagoja on La Palma) that Bahr (2000) defined as a synonym of Calacalles seticollis ( type locality: El Hierro). At that time, we followed the existing classification and also determined the specimen as C . seticollis . Now, after sequencing 'further' C . seticollis individuals and after also including a male from the same locality on La Palma, we reach a different conclusion (see discussion above). The specimens from La Palma belong to a species clearly distinct from Calacalles seticollis : Calacalles palmensis (Roudier, 1954) . As Bahr (2000) noted himself, the evidence for defining Acalles wollastoni palmensis Roudier, 1954 as a junior synonym to C . seticollis was scant: "The holotype of A . wollastoni palmensis merely consists of the abdomen. Pronotum, head, forelegs and aedeagus are missing". We reassessed the remains of the holotype of Roudier (Mus. Zool. Helsinki, No. 15065, type locality: La Palma, Caldera Taburiente). As far as a comparison is possible based on the damaged holotype , Calacalles palmensis (Roudier, 1954) is a valid species. We conclude: Calacalles palmensis (Roudier, 1954) stat. nov. , resyn. Habitus and endophallus of this species are here illustrated for the first time ( Figs. 19 , 27 ).
