Camptocerus mandelshtami Petrov View in CoL

(Fig. 46, 73)

Camptocerus mandelshtami Petrov 2007: 101 View in CoL . Holotype: male, PERU: Loreto: 68 km SW from Iquitos to Itaya river   GoogleMaps , 4 o 11’S 73 o 26’W, 120 m, (A. Petrov) (ZMMU).

Diagnosis. This species is distinguished by the glabrous elytra, by the bicolored pronotum (anterior black, posterior fifth - two fifths orange) and the other color patterns described below. Males of the species are distinguished by the apical epistomal margin bearing a median triangular tubercle, by the strongly rugose basal medial region of pronotum, by the sulcate apical pronotal margin (Fig. 5c), and by the transverse medial groove on the pronotal base.

Females are distinguished by the unique color pattern and by a black frons with an orange patch extending from the vertex to the epistoma.

moderately sclerotized below base of sensory claspers; sensory claspers heavily sclerotized, dorsoventrally flattened, each half as wide as median lobe basally, broad basally and rapidly tapering apically; left lobe strongly ventrally curved, subducted under right, right lobe not as ventrally curved (unable to examine apices of sensory claspers) ( Fig. 73). Tegmen damaged in dissection. Spicule nearly longer then aedeagus, sickle-shaped.

Female. Similar to male except epistoma less than a quarter length of head, and bearing a small median tubercle. Frons flat, bearing sparse, short setae; with large, deep punctures; a triangular impressed area originating between the eyes and terminating at the distal and lateral epistomal margins, the triangle is bisected by a shallow carina on the median line; medial impressed triangular region is orange. Each gena with a crescent-shaped mycangium (Fig. 4b). Segments 1-7 of funicle bearing setae on both dorsal and ventral margins, those less than the length of 2 segments. Apical pronotal declivity partially sulcate (Fig. 6b), area between the eyes lined with scales; disk, smooth, shining; transverse medial groove on base absent.

Specimens examined. (11M, 14F)
