Y., 2011" (MNHN, ♂; Figs 1-3); Lectotype of Callimerus flavofasciatus Schenkling designated here: “327– 62 / Museum Paris; Siam; Bocourt 327-62 / Callimerus flavofasciatus Schklg. Type! [hw. by Schenkling] / Type / ♂ / Type / Lectotype ♂: Callimerus flavofasciatus Schenkling, 1902, des. Yang G. Y., 2011" (MNHN, ♂; Figs 4-6).</p><p>Note on Type material.</p><p>The name-bearing types of latifrons and flavofasciatus were not fixed in the original publications, so lectotypes of both species are designated here to express the taxonomic purpose of fixing the name to a single specimen and preventing further uncertainty regarding the taxon to which the names are applied. Only one specimen of each species was found in related museums.</p><p>Comment on synonymy.</p><p>Gorham (1876: 67) described Callimerus latifrons from Philippines as "Nigro-piceus, …, elytrorum fasciâ basali, maculâque pone medium reniformi pallide testaceis" (with "a basal fascia (widest in centre) and two kidney-shaped spots, almost touching suture, yellow"). Schenkling (1902: 320) published Callimerus flavofasciatus from Thailand, and stated that it differed from Callimerus latifrons by having an additional yellow spot at apex of elytron. Chapin (1924: 190) synonymized Callimerus flavofasciatus with Callimerus latifrons and argued, Callimerus latifrons having such a yellow spot at apex of elytron because all the Philippines specimens he examined having that (he also stated such a spot was mentioned in Gorham’s original description, which is not true though). Corporaal (1939: 193) found a specimen from Laos lacking a yellow spot at apex of elytron, which agrees well with Gorham’s description; so he regarded the specimen as a representative of the typical form of Callimerus latifrons, and treated flavofasciatus as a variety of Callimerus latifrons for having an additional yellow spot at elytral apex. Corporaal (1948: 287) re-treated Callimerus flavofasciatus as a distinct species for presence of such a spot. However, after we located it from MNHN, we found that the type of Callimerus latifrons actually having a yellow spot at apex of elytron, which was simply not mentioned in the original description. We compared the external morphology and male genital characters of type specimensof Callimerus latifrons and Callimerus flavofasciatus and found no significant differences; therefore, we synonymize Callimerus flavofasciatus with Callimerus latifrons . In addition, the specimen from Laos mentioned in Corporaal (1939: 193; 1948: 287) lacking the additional yellow spot is conspecific with Callimerus latifrons; it is only the color variation of this species, as posterior black bands of elytra reach to the extreme apex and thus the apical yellow spot missing.</p><p>Diagnosis.</p><p>Callimerus latifrons can be rapidly distinguished from other species of this species group by its entirely black pronotum (Figs 1, 2).</p><p>There are 3 other species of this species group with two black spots on each elytron: Callimerus latesignatus, Callimerus pectoralis and Callimerus rusticus . In addition to the difference in pronotal coloration, Callimerus latifrons can be differentiated from these three species by: (1) EL/EW about 2.2 (in other 3 species 1.7-1.8); (2) anterior black spot of elytron spanning from elytral outer margin to suture, thus forming a complete black band across elytra (Fig. 1); (3) apices of paramere divergent (Fig. 7-9).</p><p>Description.</p><p>Size:length 7.5-8.9 mm, width 2.3-2.8 mm. Color: Head black, clypeus, labrum, palpi and antennae yellow; pronotum black; elytron yellow with two black spots, anterior spot just before middle, posterior spot near apex or at apex, both spots spanning from elytral outer margin to suture, thus forming two complete black bands across elytra; legs yellow with metacoxae black; prosternum black; mesepisternum black, mesepimeron yellow, mesosternum black with anterior and posterior areas more or less yellowish; metepisternum, metasternum and katepisternum black; abdominal ventrites I–III of male yellow, IV–VI black; abdominal ventrites I–V of female yellow, VI black. Vestiture: meso- and meta- pleuron more or less with thin white scales. Head: AL/AD about 1.0; EyD/EyWabout 1.0. Prothorax: PL/PW about 0.9. Elytra: EL/EW about 2.2. Male terminalia: apices of paramere divergent (Figs 7-9); TML/TMW about 1.2, TMaL/TML about 0.4, outer margin of ventral membranous region straight (Figs 9, 9a); SApL/SFL about 0.3 (Fig. 11); tergite VIII with posterior margin rounded and slightly pointed (Fig. 12); sternite VIII with posterior margin roundly concave (Fig. 13).</p><p>Variation. The posterior black spot on elytron in most cases doesn’t reach to the extreme apex and thus a small region of elytron extreme apex is yellow. But in a few specimens the black spot reach to the extreme apex, so the yellow portion is missing. These two color forms could be found in the same locality (Yunnan, China for instance) and they are not correlated with sex.</p><p>Other material examined.

Modigliani / Teste Schenkling / C. quadripunctatus Schklg, Sumatra, E. Modigliani, 6478 [hw. by Raffaello Gestro]/ Lectotype ♀: Callimerus pectoralis Schenkling, 1899, des. Yang G. Y, 2011" (MCSN, ♀; Figs 28-29).</p><p>Note on Type material.</p><p>The lectotype is one of the specimens sent to S. Schenkling for study from MCSN, with a label "quadripunctatus Schklg" handwritten by R. Gestro, the former curator of MCSN. The name "quadripunctatus Schklg" has never been published, however, the locality and morphological characters of this specimen perfectly accord with the original publication of Callimerus pectoralis . On the other hand, a specimen found in Coll. M. Pic from MNHN (locality Medan, Sumatra) determined as Callimerus pectoralis by Schenkling himself is conspecific with the specimen labeled "quadripunctatus Schklg" (Figs 30-32). In this case, it is assumed that “quadripunctatus” was the first name that came to Schenkling’s mind and written down in the identification list that sent to MCSN, but later Schenkling changed his mind and published the species with another name “pectoralis” . Regardless of the details, the specimen found in MCSN undoubtedly belongs to the type series and we therefore designated it as the lectotype of Callimerus pectoralis Schenkling here for the taxonomic purpose of fixing the name to a single specimen and preventing further uncertainty regarding the taxon to which the name is applied.</p><p>Diagnosis.</p><p>This species is most similar to Callimerus rusticus and Callimerus latesignatus . However, it differs from Callimerus rusticus by: (1) mesepisternum yellow (black in Callimerus rusticus); (2) posterior spot on elytron located vertical-apically, rounded rectangle, length to width ratio about 1.5:1 (Fig. 28)( Callimerus rusticus with posterior spot on elytron located lateral-apically, bar-shaped, length to width ratio about 4:1; Fig. 41); (3) anterior spot on elytron of Callimerus pectoralis larger than that of Callimerus rusticus, in Callimerus pectoralis short diameter of anterior spot on elytron in most cases larger than distance between that spot and elytral suture (Fig. 28, 30) ( Callimerus rusticus short diameter of anterior spot on elytron in most cases not larger than distance between that spot and elytral suture; Fig. 41, 44); (4) outer margin of ventral membranous region of tegmen strongly curved, TML/TMW about 0.9, TMaL/TML about 0.3 (Figs 35, 35a) ( Callimerus rusticus with outer margin of ventral membranous region of tegmen slightly curved, TML/TMW about 1.3, TMaL/TML about 0.2; Figs 48, 48a); (5) tergite VIII with posterior margin rounded, slightly notched in middle (Fig. 38) ( Callimerus rusticus with tergite VIII with posterior margin almost straight; Fig. 51).</p><p>The difference between this species and Callimerus latesignatus is provided in the diagnosis section under Callimerus latesignatus .</p><p>Description.</p><p>Size:length 7.5-8.8 mm, width 2.8-3.3 mm.

Kuban" (NHMB, 1♀).</p><p>Diagnosis.</p><p>The new species can be rapidly distinguished from other species of the latifrons species-group by: elytron with only one black spot at apex, lacking anterior spot; metasternum and metepisternum yellow; apices of parameres sharply attenuate, then divergent.</p><p>The coloration of this new species is similar to that of Callimerus pallidus Gorham and Callimerus gorhami Corporaal, which are excluded from the latifrons species-group in the present paper. The new species, however, differs from Callimerus pallidus by EL/EW 2.27-2.34, PL/PW about 0.9, EyD/EyW about 1.1 (Fig. 54) (EL/EW about 3.1, PL/PW about 1.2, EyD/EyW about 1.9 in Callimerus pallidus; Fig. 79).</p><p>The new species differs from Callimerus gorhami by: PL/PW about 0.9, EyD/EyWabout 1.1, elytra parallel-sided, without scales, apical black spot on elytron with anterior bor der straight (Fig. 54) ( Callimerus gorhami with PL/PW about 1.1, EyD/EyW about 2.4, elytra slightly rounded at posterior sides, elytra apex with white scales, apical black spot with anterior border sinuate (Figs 81, 82)).</p><p>Description.</p><p>Size:length 9.9-11.7 mm, width 2.9-3.7 mm. Color: Head yellow, mandibles black; pronotum yellow; elytron yellow with a black spot at apex; legs yellow; under surface totally yellow except for last two ventrites of male abdomen and part of last ventrite of female abdomen darker. Head: AL/AD about 1.2 (Fig. 71); EyD/EyW about 1.1 (Fig. 71). Prothorax: PL/PW about 0.9. Elytra: EL/EW about 2.27-2.34. Male terminalia: apices of parameres sharply attenuate, slender and divergent (Figs 59-61, 66-68); TML/TMW about 1.1, TMaL/TML about 0.54, outer margin of ventral membranous region of tegmen curved (Figs 61, 68, 69); tegmen with an additional tiny membranous region at dorsal-central side (Fig. 66); SApL/SFL about 0.31 (Fig. 63); tergite VIII with posterior margin pointed, notched in middle (Fig. 64), sternite VIII with posterior margin deeply concave (Fig 65).</p><p>Variation.</p><p>In the holotype and a paratype (No. IOZ(E)1126332), the black spot on elytron reach to the extreme apex; in the other paratypes, the black spot does not reach to the extreme apex so that a tiny region in extreme apex is yellow.</p><p>Distribution</p><p>(Fig. 72). China (Yunnan), Laos.</p><p>Etymology.</p><p>The Latin adjective “cacuminis” means of a peak, top or tip, and emphasizes the singular black spot on elytra apex.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/3AAF750B9FC3A309052BA858910DBF9C	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Furthermore, we consider it should be assigned in the genus Corynommadius Schenkling, 1899a. Its closest relative is Corynommadius speciosus Schenkling, 1899a, the type species of Corynommadius Schenkling; the difference of these two species only shows in variation of anterior black spot on elytron (Fig. 73; Gerstmeier 2002: 425, 432, fig. 2).</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/15E43805CAD0C7FE0028B1D08A488808	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
