Description

Parasyntrophus setosapex (Heller), comb. n.

Idiopsis setosapex Heller, 1914: 306. Type locality: C-Bali, Gn. Bratan.

Idiopsodes setosapex (Heller)

Description. Lectotype (Fig. 28a). Length. Pronotum plus elytron 4.28 mm. Integument covered with appressed grey scales. Head with curved, transverse sulcus separating rostral base slightly concealed; vertex with radial furrows, covered by scales. Rostrum as long as wide (1.01 X), sides subparallel; apical declivity with sunk-in scales, with interspersed erect scales, subapically subglabrous, with sparse setae. Antennal funicle with article 2 longer (1.4 X) than article 1. Pronotum slightly longer than wide (1.11 X); coarsely punctate, squamose. Elytra 1.29 X as long as wide; dorsally convex; intervals with rows of erect, subclavate scales, long and conspicuous on apical declivity, short and inconspicuous near base. Genitalia. Penis (Fig. 28b) with sides of body subparallel, subapically abruptly widened, forming spatulate extension, rounded. Apodeme 3.30 X as long as body of penis. Endophallus in subapical portion coiled, curved brownish portion containing microsetae. Transfer apparatus flagelliform, ca. 3 X as long as body of penis. Intraspecific variation. Length. Pronotum plus elytron 4.28–4.68 mm. Scaling grey or bronze.

Material examined. Type specimens. Male, lectotype by present designation: INDONESIA, C-Bali, Gn. Bratan, 1913, E. Stresemann; labels (Fig. 28c); condition: fair; genitalia in glycerol in microtube; DNA extraction ARC4663 (not sequenced) (SMTD). Paralectotypes: 4 exx, DNA extraction ARC4025 (GenBank # OR557441); same data as lectotype; 2 exx, Danau Bratan, 1913, E. Stresemann. Other material examined: INDONESIA, C-Bali: 1 ex, ARC3540 (GenBank # LN866359), Bedugul, Tamblingan, S08° 15.015´E115° 06.202´, 1200–1300 m, 06- XI-2007 (SMNK).

Notes. In the original description, no holotype is designated and the number of specimens at hand is not mentioned. Five syntypes were examined. A lectotype is designated to ensure stability of nomenclature in case additional syntypes belonging to other species are found. The cox1 sequence of the lectotype and a specimen from Lake Tamblingan have a relatively high p-distance of 8.50% but no morphological differences could be detected.
