Legs dark metallic green-purple, except tarsi light brown.</p><p>Head slightly transverse, width: length ratio = 1.29; head hexagonal in shape, widest at temples. Surface of epicranium with polygon-shaped microsculpture, micropunctures and with medium-sized punctures scattered throughout except medially.

Chatzimanolis 2013” (UFRB). Deposited in Universidade Federal do Paraná, in Curitiba (UFPR).</p><p>Diagnosis. Terataki caterinoi can be distinguished from all other species of Terataki based on the following characteristics: a) at least 2mm longer than any other species; b) uniform metallic green coloration of head, pronotum, elytra and most of abdomen; c) with one row of small-sized punctures on each half of the pronotum (two sets of small-sized punctures in Te. badiipennis and Te. erithracus; two sets of large punctures in Te. liliputanum) and d) fewer micropunctures (head and pronotum almost appearing glabrous) on the head and pronotum than any other species.</p><p>Description. Body length 18 mm.</p><p>Coloration of head, pronotum, mesoscutellum and elytra bright metallic green with yellowish orange overtones. Ventral surface of head and prothorax metallic dark green. Antenna brown with antennomeres 1–3 metallic green-brown. Abdomen metallic green with intersegmental membranes orange; tergite VIII black except orange on anterolateral corners; sternite VIII orange anteriorly and black posteriorly. Legs dark metallic greenbrown, except distal tarsomeres lighter brown.</p><p>Head subquadrate, width: length ratio = 1.08; head hexagonal in shape, widest at temples. Surface of epicranium with transverse microsculpture, micropunctures and with few small punctures scattered near margins of head. Antennomeres 1–3 longer than wide; antennomeres 4–5 subquadrate; antennomeres 6–10 transverse; 5–7 gradually increasing in width; antennomere 8 slightly shorter than antennomere 7; antennomeres 8–10 similar in size; antennomeres 7–10 asymmetrical (slightly off center). Antennomeres 1–4 with several rows of macrosetae; antennomeres 5–11 with microtrichiae.</p><p>Pronotum subquadrate, width: length ratio = 1.07; with transverse microsculpture and rows of micropunctures; small punctures present around the margin of pronotum and in one row of punctures on each half of pronotum around the midline; each row with multiple punctures; distance between punctures in each row varies. Mesoscutellum with transverse microsculpture and large almost confluent punctures.</p><p>Elytra subequal in length to pronotum with medium-sized uniform punctation; distance between punctures subequal to 1.5 times width of punctures; elytra with dense polygon-shaped microsculpture and transverse lines.</p><p>Abdomen. Tergite II without curved (arch-like) ridge; tergites III–V with anterior basal carina but with no curved ridge. Abdominal tergites with faint transverse surface microsculpture; with large punctation; distance between punctures subequal to half width of punctures except punctation less dense medially; punctures transversely elongate on tergites IV–VII. Sternum with uniform dense punctation, distance between punctures subequal to width of puncture; sternum covered with dense transverse microsculpture.</p><p>Secondary sexual structures. Males not known. Females with no obvious secondary sexual structures.</p><p>Distribution. Known from the type locality in the state of Paraná in Brazil.</p><p>Habitat. Michael Caterino, who along with and Alexey Tishechkin collected the specimen, described the habitat as a transition zone from moist Atlantic forest to a more seasonal Cerrado, with the former lower down in the canyon, and the plateaus more Cerrado-like.</p><p>Etymology. The species is named in honor of Dr. Michael S. Caterino, who along with A. Tishechkin collected the specimen in Brazil.</p><p>Remarks. I am typically hesitant to describe new species only from female specimens. In the past (Chatzimanolis 2004; Chatzimanolis 2012) I have only done it when the specimens can be clearly differentiated from other species and are found in threatened habitats. This is also the case here, and therefore I feel comfortable describing a new species from a female specimen.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/6F4987A5FF94836694EBFD95FD11FE91	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
