Plateros ciceroi Kazantsev, 2011

Plateros ciceroi Kazantsev, 2011: 189 . Replacement name pro Plateros tonkineus (Pic, 1931) : 97 ( Ditoneces ), nec Plateros tonkineus Pic, 1926: 31 .

= Ditoneces tonkineus Pic, 1931: 97 .

= Ditoneces tonkineus var. discicollis Pic, 1942: 6 , syn.n.

DISTRIBUTION. ‘Tonkin’.

REMARKS. Pic´s [1931] description reads as follows: ‘ Elongatus, paulo nitidus , griseo pubescens, niger, capite antice, thorace et femoribus anticis ad basim testaceis; antennis pilosis, crassis, atriculus 4 et sequentibus infra plus minusve longe dentatis; thorace parum breve, sat lato, antice subarcuato, angulis posticis valde prominulis, postice medio longe sulcato; elytris elongatis, parallelis, multi costatis. Long. 5 mill. Hoa Binh. — A placer près de atripennis Pic [ Plateros nox Kazantsev, 2005 ].’ No type specimens of this taxon were found in the Pic collection at MNHN, and no specimens that would match the above description could be detected in the studied material.

The description of Ditoneces tonkineus var. discicollis reads as follows: ‘Thorax un peu plus large que chez forme typique et largement foncé au milieu. Tonkin’ [ Pic, 1942]. As the characters given lie within the range of infraspecific variability in this group of Plateros species, Ditoneces tonkineus var. discicollis Pic, 1942 , syn.n. is considered to be a junior synonym of Ditoneces tonkineus Pic, 1931 [ Plateros ciceroi Kazantsev, 2011 ].
