Zyras? ferrugineus CAMERON, 1939

Zyras (Zyras) ferrugineus CAMERON, 1939a: 541 .

Type material examined: Holotype ♀? [in poor condition; right elytron missing]: “Holotype / 64521 / Doberty / Birmah, RubyMes’’ / Fry Coll. 1905.100. / Z. ferrugineus Cam. Type / Holotype Zyras ferrugineus Cam., det. R.G. Booth 2016” (BMNH).

Comment: The original description is based on a unique male from “ Burma: Ruby Mines” (CAMERON 1939a). Cameron´s original subgeneric assignment was adopted also by HLAVÁČ et al. (2011). An examination of the holotype, however, revealed that the specimen certainly does not belong to Zyras sensu strictu. In fact, based on external characters (antennal morphology, conspicuously slender maxillary palpi, punctation of the abdomen), the generic assignment is doubtful, too.
