EF68A0500A14FFF909F8FDA5B117F93F.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis. Trichodesma nancyae is distinguished from all other named species of Trichodesma by the large, dark, brown circle on the middle of the elytra, as well by the lack of long, erect setae on the elytra. The only similar species in Mexico with a round marking on the elytra are Trichodesma beyeri Fall and Trichodesma discigera Champion, both of which differ from T. nancyae by the circle being created by a reduction of setae, not the presence of dense, short brown setae. They also differ in having distinct, long erect setae.	en	Schnepp, Kyle E.

EF68A0500A14FFF909F8FDA5B117F93F.taxon	description	Description. Holotype: Sex: male. Length: 6.1 mm; width: 3 mm. Overall body form elongate oval. Head: Frons covered with short, pale pubescence that becomes shorter and less dense posteriorly. Eyes large, interocular distance slightly wider than each eye in anterior view. Antennae with 11 antennomeres, the last three forming a club; antennomeres IX and X equal in length, antennomere XI as long as antennomeres II – VIII combined; antennomere IX securiform, widening on one side from base to apex; antennomere X widening on one side from base to apex but not as wide at apex as antennomere IX; antennomere XI similar width throughout, becoming slightly wider apically. Pronotum: Gibbous, covered in shiny, generally distributed round asperities; widest in anterior third, converging slightly anteriorly with anterior angles produced, converging very broadly posteriorly with a sinuation in the basal third. Laterally with a strong carina from base to apex. Generally covered in pale appressed setae with a sparsely covered patch each side posterolaterally and at the anterolateral angles. On the disc, at the apex of the gibbosity, are four patches of brown setae, the anterior pair larger than the posterior pair, each separated by a thin line of white pubescence. Elytra: Basally with irregularly distributed shiny, round asperities. Generally covered in a dense, pale, appressed pubescence, with a denuded sparse patch on each elytron mediobasally, apically, and the apical 1 / 4 from the suture anterolaterally. The general pale pubescence developing a brown tinge laterally. Dark, erect setae are present irregularly; punctures are deep and distinct, and clearly separated. There is a common brown circle medially on the disc made of a dense patch of short setae, basally this circle with a slight divot of white pubescence either side of the suture, and the apex with a slight intrusion of white pubescence along the suture; the lateral portion of the divot with erect brown setae. Lateral to the central spot is a smaller brown spot on the lateral 1 / 4 of each elytron. In the denuded patch at the apical 1 / 4 are three small brown patches of erect setae. Legs: Covered in pale, generally appressed pubescence, tibiae with outer margin with denser pubescence and long, erect setae. Femur and tibia equal in length; tarsi with basal and apical tarsomeres equal in length, middle three tarsomeres slightly shorter and equal in length to one another; each tarsomere with dense pale setae beneath; tarsal claws with basal tooth. Venter: Ventral portions of the thorax with distinctly separated shiny, round asperities, between which is appressed, moderately dense pale pubescence. Abdomen generally covered with appressed, moderately dense, pale pubescence with tracks or small patches of denuded areas where instead there are shiny asperities. Genitalia (Fig. 28): Viewed dorsally, parameres elongate with a lateral extension that first curves arcuately away from the genitalia and then back toward the median lobe where it ends as it begins to recurve laterally again; this lateral extension is slightly longer than the median lobe. The portion of the parameres beyond this extension is more heavily sclerotized and bifid at the apex. The median lobe expanding from the base, widest in the middle, and converging to an acuminate apex. Medially there is a slightly impressed channel basally that expands apically until it opens up and merges with the opposite surface at about the middle of the lobe. Variation (n = 2). The paratype is slightly larger than the holotype at 6.3 mm long and 3.1 mm wide but is similar in virtually all characters. It is not dissected but matches the holotype in antennal size and length, and eye size, often dimorphic characters in this genus.	en	Schnepp, Kyle E.

EF68A0500A12FFF809F8FE93B08CFDE2.taxon	description	Figures 3 – 6 A small number of specimens were seen by Fall from “ Santa Rosa, Lower California ”, with no holotype specified. In the MCZC there are three specimens with that data, one of those specimens labeled as type, but it is unclear as to when this label was added. In accordance with ICZN Recommendation 73 F to not assume types, I am designating here one of the other two, a male, as lectotype with the following labels “ Santa Rosa / Low, Cal. // H. C.

EF68A0500A12FFF809F8FB8BB601F91E.taxon	description	Figures 15 – 18 There is ambiguity regarding the names and relationships between this and Trichodesma imperator (Laporte de Castelnau). Pic (1901) provides a new name for T. imperator without any explanation why a name is needed. He indicates the author as Gorham even though Gorham (1883) attributes authorship to Laporte de Castelnau (1838) and Gorham simply provides a figure for the species. If Pic believed that Gorham was describing it and created a homonym, then his new name would be justified. It seems, however, that Pic simply renamed the species, as Champion (1913) states; “ Pic renamed the insect from this figure, but he did not describe it in any way ”. If we believe that both Pic and Champion thought that the figure for T. imperator from Gorham (1883) did not match the description from Laporte de Castelnau (1838), then it is possible that Pic’s 1901 name is simply a new name and not a replacement name. The specimen Gorham’s figure is based on is from Almolonga, Mexico, and is from Höge’s collection. This specimen, which would be the holotype, should be in the NHMUK as Champion (1913) states “ The above description is taken from the two examples in the “ Biologia ” collection, one of these having been figured by Gorham as T. imperator. ” There is a specimen in the MNHM labeled as the type of both T. imperator Gorham and T. gorhami Pic. While this specimen is from Almolonga and the “ Hoege ” collection, it does not match Gorham’s figure nor Champion’s description and may be mislabeled. This specimen, figured here, is the putative type from the MNHM and has the following labels “ Almolonga, / Mexico. / Hoege. // [handwritten] type // [handwritten] gorhami / Pic // Museum Paris / Coll. M. Pic // [on red] SYNTYPE // SYNTYPE / Trichodesma / imperator Gorham, 1883 // SYNTYPE / Trichodesma / gorhami Pic, 1901 // MNHN, Paris / EC 19799 / [QR code] ”. Additional research into the identity of the specimen figured in Gorham (1883) is ongoing.	en	Schnepp, Kyle E.
