Amblypsilopus pallidicornis View in CoL species group

Diagnosis

See Bickel (1994) for a diagnosis of the group. The Madagascan Amblypsilopus pallidicornis species group shares such characters as rather broad face in males (2.5–4 times as wide as postpedicel height) and elongate antennae (about half as long as body). The other characters are very variable and unavailable for further splitting of the groups.

Notes

The Amblypsilopus pallidicornis group has a broad range throughout the Oriental andAustralasian regions. The following Madagascan species belong to the A. pallidicornis group: A. ambila , A. ankaratrensis , A. bairae , A. bruneli , A. dallastai , A. flavus , A. friedmani , A. grootaerti , A. kaplanae , A. marinae , A. pallidicornis , A. ranomafana , A. reunionensis , A. romani and A. takamaka . A. pallidicornis is reported also from Oriental and Pacific islands. Amblypsilopus reunionensis and A. takamaka are endemic to Réunion.
