Araeocorynus cumingi Jekel, Ins. Saund.

Description

8.Araeocorynus cumingi Jekel ,

Ins. Saund. 1: 152, table 1, figs. 6a-6b, 1855, (pl. 1,D).

Three specimens of this species were collected at Guam as follows: one at Tumon, from Barringtonia, May 30, 1936, and one at Inarajan, "ex pago" by Swezey, June 8; and one specimen collected by Fullaway.

This species resembles a giant Araecerus vieillardi or A. fasciculatus. Insofar as I know, this is the first record of the occurrence of the species outside the Philippine Islands, where it is endemic.
