Description
26) Hypsopedes Bei-Bienko, 1951
Characters. Micropterous, pronotum not excised, flat, and rounded, median keel present; Ƥ subgenital plate evidently incised, as broad as long, side sclerites large, fused with the subgenital plate; ovipositor straight and gently upcurved in the apical third; hind femora/pronotum length 3: 2.8; 3 X th tergite with two very large and very close processes, cerci much flattened and provided with an inner central spine. The hind margin of male 1–3 tergites is lamellate. Titillators thorny in apical arms. Colour of lateral lobes of the pronotum is black bordered with a white stripe.
Distribution. Russia.
Remarks. We were not able to examine specimens of this rare montane endemic taxon, but Figs. 421–427 of Storozhenko (2004) consent us to consider Hypsopedes a well characterized genus, well distinct from others here treated; additionally, Storozhenko (2004) separates it from other Platycleidini because hind margin of male 1–3 tergites is lamellate, while in other relatives it is smooth, and by its fastigium of vertex 1.4–1.9 times broader than 1st antennal segment, while in others taxa it is 2.4.
Number of species known (after Eades et al. 2010): 1) kurentzovi Bei-Bienko, 1951 (type species).
