Axina klisis Opitz , new species
Figures 27 View Figures 25–28 , 70 View Figure 70 , 97 View Figures 94–97 .
Type material. Holotype. Male. Type locality: Brasil, Pará, Serra Norte, Refeitorio , 17-XI-1983. A second label reads: Brasil, Pará, M. F. Torres ( FSCA) . Paratype. One specimen. Brazil: Estado do Pará, Serra Norte, Canga, 4-XI-1983, collector not noted ( MCNZ).
Diagnosis. The elytral asetiferous punctures are scattered on the elytral disc. This characteristic will distinguish specimens of this species from superficially similar specimens of A. trinalis , which differ by showing a substriate arrangement of the elytral asetiferous punctures.
Description. Size. Length 10.0 mm; width 2.3 mm. Form. As in Fig. 97 View Figures 94–97 . Color. Cranium, thorax, and legs dark castaneous; antenna testaceous; elytra bicolorous, disc mostly flavotestaceous, epipleural margin widely dark brown, brown marking extends mesally at middle of elytral disc and just in front of elytral apex where brown marking is contiguous with sutural margin; abdomen brown. Head. Cranium finely punctate, frons about as wide as length of antennal pedicel; EW/FW 50/15. Thorax. Pronotum finely punctate, with 2 paralateral spheroid tumescences, disc narrowly concave near middle; PW/PL 110/150; elytra, asetiferous punctures scattered, punctures extend posteriorly to elytral 3/4, interstitial spaces very wide; EL/EW 440/80. Abdomen. Aedeagus ( Fig. 27 View Figures 25–28 ), phallobasic lobes very short, contiguous, phallic plates not serrate; phallobasic apodeme abbreviated.
Distribution (for map see Fig. 70 View Figure 70 ). This species is known from Brazil.
Etymology. The specific epithet, klisis , is a Latin derivative of clino (= bend). I refer to the bent character of the phallobasic lobes.
