5. Bagous apicalis View in CoL group

Diagnosis. Penis body with unmovable, broad, horizontal plate over orifice (char. 79.2). Shape of venter of penis body ventrolaterally triangular in cross-section, in about middle region (char. 68.1). Apex of penis body very long, asymmetrically deflected to left.

Remarks. This group, composed of one Australian and one Indian species, is characterized by two apomorphies in the penis, unique in the Bagoini. In our matrix we used B. tuberculatus since the female of B. apicalis is unknown.

Species included. AUS: ¹ Bagous apicalis O'Brien, 1992 . ORR: *¹ B. tuberculatus O'Brien, 1995 .
