Yu Bao (SANXU).</p><p>Paratypes: 1♂, same data as holotype (SANXU) .</p><p>Measurements. Holotype. Total length 3.05 mm; head length 0.58 mm, head width across compound eyes 0.60 mm; pronotum length 0.73 mm, maximum pronotal width 0.58 mm, minimum pronotal width 0.25 mm, elytral length 1.72 mm, combined maximum elytral width 1.19 mm.</p><p>Description. Head, pronotum, and elytra uniformly brown, slightly darker area on the upper rear of eyes; antennae, maxillary palps, and legs yellowish-brown.</p><p>Head broadly subtriangular, glossy dorsally and ventrally; eyes medium, moderately convex; tempora slightly longer than eye length, strongly narrowing towards head base, posterior temporal angle broadly rounded; head base broadly rounded in dorsal view; punctures on head minute, with intervening spaces glossy and glabrous, much wider than punctures; setae on head yellowish-brown, distinct, subdecumbent, and directed toward midline of head, few longer, erect tactile setae scattered on frons and posterior to compound eyes; antennomere III as long as antennomere II and slightly longer than antennomere IV; antennomeres V to VII gradually widen, antennomeres VIII to X are distinctly transverse; terminal antennomere broadly triangular with rounded apex, about 1.8 times as long as penultimate antennomere; terminal maxillary palpomere broadly triangular.</p><p>Pronotum (fig. 2) moderately glossy dorsally and laterally, with broad and medially deeply notched postmedian lateral constriction; front margin of anterior lobe broadly rounded, without anterior rim; lateral pronotal fovea broad and deep in dorsal view, with anterior and posterior denticles appearing nearly right-angled; brush of dense, moderately long, setae clearly visible on posterior denticles (fig. 2a); cavity in lateral wall of pronotum between lateral denticles large; anterior lobe slightly convex in lateral view; lateral constriction continues onto disc in lateral view; lateral pronotal fovea moderately broad, slightly widens upwards towards pronotal disc in lateral view; anterior and posterior margins of fovea each protrudes in a black obtuse triangular denticle, with short, stout brush-like setae beneath anterior and above posterior denticle (fig. 2b); pronotal dorsal punctures generally similar to those on head, becoming larger towards constriction area, intervening spaces moderately glossy; lateral margins of pronotum minutely punctured; pronotal setae yellowish, dense, suberect; scattered longer, erect tactile setae present along lateral margins of pronotum.</p><p>Scutellar shield minute, rounded apically.</p><p>Elytra dorsally elliptical, slightly flattened in lateral view, widened laterally around midlength, lateral margins evenly broadly rounded; shoulders obsolete, apterous species; sutural stria not present; punctures much stronger and larger than those on dorsal forebody, becoming much smaller and sparser on posterior third of elytra; setae yellowish-brown, rather long and dense, suberect.</p><p>Male tergite VII and morphological sternite VII broadly rounded at posterior margin, sternite VIII tranced at posterior margin; spiculum gastrale and aedeagus as in figures 7 and 8.</p><p>Diagnosis. This species closely resembles M. jiuhuanus Telnov, 2007 (Anhui) in habitus but differs by sparser pronotal punctures on the constriction area (fig. 2a, vs. densely packed, irregularly circular punctures in M. jiuhuanus); aedeagus with a slender-elongate apex (fig. 8a, vs. broadly rounded apex in M. jiuhuanus). M. baoyui sp. nov. can be readily distinguished from M. clavipes (Champion, 1890) (Japan: Honshu and Shikoku) by the more slender and elongated morphology of the male aedeagus. The aedeagus of M. baoyui sp. nov. is similar to that of M. wudu Telnov, 2022, but differs from M. wudu by aedeagus lateral margins subparallel in the apical third (fig. 8a, vs. tapered) and not posteriorly curved (fig. 8b, distinctly recurved dorsally in M. wudu), and the two species are readily distinguished by habitus.</p><p>Etymology.

Head, pronotum, and elytra uniformly brown; antennae, maxillary palps, apical tibia and tarsus yellowish-brown, tibia base and femur brown.</p><p>Head broadly subtriangular, moderately glossy dorsally and ventrally; eyes medium, moderately convex; Tempora as long as eye length, strongly narrowing towards head base, posterior temporal angle broadly rounded; head base rounded, slightly truncate in dorsal view; punctures on head minute, with intervening spaces glossy and glabrous, much wider than punctures; setae on head whitish to yellowish, distinct, subdecumbent, and directed toward the middle of head; few longer, erect tactile setae scattered on frons and posterior to compound eyes; antennomere III longer than antennomere II and than antennomere IV; antenomeres V to X gradually widen, while antennomeres VII to X are distinctly transverse; terminal antennomere broadly triangular with rounded apex, about 1.5 times as long as penultimate antennomere; Terminal maxillary palpomere broadly triangular to semicircle.</p><p>Pronotum (fig. 10) length greater than width, moderately glossy dorsally and laterally, with broad and medially deeply notched postmedian lateral constriction; front margin of anterior lobe broadly rounded, without anterior rim; in dorsal view, lateral pronotal fovea moderately wide, anterior denticles appearing right-angled and posterior denticles obtuse-angled(fig. 10a); cavity in lateral wall of pronotum between lateral denticles moderate; in lateral view, anterior lobe slightly convex; lateral constriction not continues onto disc; lateral pronotal fovea moderately narrow with distinct margin of pronotum, slightly widens upwards towards pronotal disc; anterior and posterior margins of fovea, each protrudes a black broad semicircle denticle, with few setae beneath the two denticles (fig. 10b); pronotal dorsal punctures generally similar to those on head, intervening spaces moderately glossy; constriction area dorsally with dense, large, irregularly circular punctures, separated by much less than puncture diameters; lateral margins of pronotum minutely punctured; pronotal setae yellowish, dense, suberect; with few longer erect tactile setae present along lateral sides of anterior lobe.</p><p>Scutellar shield minute, rounded apically.</p><p>Elytra dorsally elliptical, slightly flattened in lateral view, widened laterally around midlength, lateral margins evenly broadly rounded, moderately glossy. humeral angle with beak-shaped small nodular, apterous species; punctures circular, much stronger and larger than those on dorsal forebody, smaller and less coarse than dorsal punctures on pronotal constriction, becoming much smaller and sparser on posterior third of elytra; setae yellowish, rather long and dense, suberect.</p><p>Each tibia with basal half flattened, fore tibia with blunt angulate expansion near middle on inner side, hind tibia inner edge straight, without distinct curvature.</p><p>Male tergite VII broadly rounded at posterior margin, sternite VII shallowly excavated on apical margin, sternite VIII obviously excavated on apical margin; spiculum gastrale and aedeagus as in figures 15 and 16.</p><p>Diagnosis. This species superficially resembles the M.gracilicollis species group (Telnov, 2007)in its specialized elytral humeral angles, tibial morphology, and genital characters. However, it deviates from the diagnostic traits of the group by having a pronotum length not significantly exceeding its width and displaying distinct denticles in dorsal view. The taxonomic placement of this species within the M. gracilicollis species group is provisionally withheld pending further study. The pronotal punctation of M. insolitus sp. nov. is similar to that of M. blinsteini Telnov, 2024 (China: Sichuan-Shaanxi), but differs in the non-transversely-ovoid head and the presence of a small beak-shaped nodule on the elytral humeral angle (absent in M. blinsteini).</p><p>Etymology. Named from Latin " insolitum ", meaning "unusual" or "extraordinary", referring to the elytral beak-shaped nodule, like members of M. gracilicollis species group.</p><p>Distribution. China (Chongqing).</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/2E568300FFF7FFEAFF5BFB58FDE1D56B	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply. See Agosti, D., Egloff, W., 2009.

Head, pronotum, and elytra uniformly brown; antennae, maxillary palps and legs comparatively slightly lighter.</p><p>Head broadly subpentagonal, moderately glossy dorsally and ventrally; eyes medium-small with black border, not protruding beyond lateral or dorsal outline of head; Tempora longer than eye length, slightly narrowing towards head base, posterior temporal angle broadly rounded; head base slightly truncate in dorsal view; punctures on head minute, with intervening spaces glossy and glabrous, much wider than punctures, several larger varying sizes punctures scattered on vertex; setae on head whitish to yellowish, distinct, subdecumbent, and directed toward the middle of head base; few longer, erect tactile setae scattered on lateral sides of head; antennomere III longer than antennomere II and than antennomere IV; antenomeres II, VI and V with similar length antenomeres V to X gradually widen, while antennomeres VII to X are distinctly transverse; terminal antennomere broadly hemispheric with rounded apex, about 1.5 times as long as penultimate antennomere; Terminal maxillary palpomere broadly triangular to securiform.</p><p>Pronotum (fig. 40) slender, length greater than width, moderately glossy dorsally and laterally, with broad and medially shallowly notched postmedian lateral constriction; front margin of anterior lobe broadly rounded, without anterior rim; in dorsal view, lateral pronotal fovea wide, anterior denticles and posterior denticles appearing rightto acute-angled (fig. 40a); in lateral view, anterior lobe slightly convex, lateral constriction not continues onto disc, lateral pronotal fovea moderately broad with distinct margin of pronotum, widens upwards towards pronotal disc, without distinct denticle at anterior and posterior margins of fovea, only slightly thickened; without specialized setae on the fovea (fig. 40b); pronotal dorsal punctures generally similar to those on head, intervening spaces moderately glossy; constriction area dorsally with dense, large, irregularly circular punctures, separated by much less than puncture diameters; lateral margins of pronotum minutely punctured; pronotal setae yellowish, dense, subdecumbent; with few longer erect tactile setae present on lateral sides of anterior lobe.</p><p>Scutellar shield minute, slightly rounded apically.</p><p>Elytra dorsally elliptical, slightly flattened in lateral view, widened laterally around midlength, lateral margins evenly broadly rounded, moderately glossy. humeral angle with minute beak-shaped nodular, apterous species; punctures circular, much stronger and larger than those on dorsal forebody, smaller and less coarse than dorsal punctures on pronotal constriction; a row of slightly larger, irregularly arranged punctures on each side of the elytral suture; setae yellowish, rather long and dense, suberect.</p><p>Each tibia with basal half flattened, fore tibia with weakly blunt angulate expansion near middle on inner side, hind tibia inner edge slightly curved at basal third.</p><p>Male tergite VII broadly rounded at posterior margin, sternite VII shallowly excavated on apical margin; sternite VIII, spiculum gastrale and aedeagus as in figures 45 and 46.</p><p>Diagnosis. This species superficially resembles the M. gracilicollis species group (Telnov, 2007) in its slender pronotum, specialized elytral humeral angle, and tibial morphology. Although these similarities suggest potential affinity, the taxonomic placement within this group is provisionally withheld pending further study. This species can be distinguished from members of M. gracilicollis species group by the combination of characteristics: the slightly outwardly curved outer margin of the fore tibia, the absence of a central longitudinal ridge on the pronotum, and a body length greater than 3.0 mm; and it can be clearly differentiated from other species by aedeagus morphology. The pronotal shape of this species is similar to that of M. angelinii Telnov, 2022 (China: Yunnan), but distinct differences are evident in pronotal punctation and elytral length. In comparison with M. insolitus sp. nov., M. nanling sp. nov. with distinctly slender pronotum, smaller extensions of foretibia, relatively smaller compound eyes, and smaller humeral angle nodular.</p><p>Etymology. This species is named after the Nanling Mountains, the largest mountains range in southern China, which marks the boundary between temperate and subtropical zones, where this species was first collected. Noun in apposition.</p><p>Distribution. China (Guangdong).</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/2E568300FFF2FFE1FF5BFA5BFDE7D78F	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
