Surface of central part of pronotum with very delicate, extremely fine and dense punctation, near lateral margins surface of pronotum densely shagreened. Puncture diameter more than 5 times as small as eye facet. Distances between punctures significantly smaller than their diameter, interspaces smooth, slightly shining. Pronotal disc with two pronounced symmetrical longitudinal parallel depressions and 1 weak unpaired depression along midline near apex (Figs 1 – 2). Ratio of length of elytra to their combined width about 52: 56. Elytra with weak longitudinal depressions along suture (Figs 1 – 2). Surface of elytra with rather delicate, fine and dense punctation. Puncture diameter about 1.5 times as small How to cite this article: Gildenkov M. Yu. 2019. Two new species of the genus Carpelimus Leach, 1819 from as eye facet. Distances between punctures significantly smaller than their diameter, interspaces smooth, slightly shining. Abdomen delicately shagreened. Aedeagus of characteristic structure (Fig. 3). Female. Sexual dimorphism absent, female morphologically similar to male. Spermatheca of characteristic structure (Fig. 4). COMPARATIVE REMARKS. The new species is similar in size to Carpelimus (s. str.) magnus Gildenkov, 2014 that lives in Indonesia and Philippines [Gildenkov, 2014 c, 2019 b], but differs from this species in having a lighter colouration, slightly more pronounced temples, wider pronotum with serrated lateral margins and elytra with a significantly finer punctation; clearly differs in the structure of the aedeagus (Fig. 3).	en	Koch-Institut, Robert (2019): Infektionsepidemiologisches Jahrbuch meldepflichtiger Krankheiten für 2018.

From Latin “ pulchram, pulchrå ” (beautiful, fine); the name refers to the external appearance of the beetle: its large size, a rather bright colouration and wide pronotum with serrated margins.	en	Koch-Institut, Robert (2019): Infektionsepidemiologisches Jahrbuch meldepflichtiger Krankheiten für 2018.

3F6787B4FFB591438B22FDEB69E3F948.taxon	description	DESCRIPTION (holotype). Length 1.8 mm. Colouration brown, legs and antennae yellow brown. Integument slightly shining, body with short, light-coloured hairs. Head transverse, with a wide base, ratio of its length (from posterior margin of head to anterior margin of clypeus) to maximum width about 16: 24. Neck constriction prominent. Eyes small, convex. Temples well-developed, round, eye diameter in dorsal view significantly (about 1.5 times) smaller than temple length. Head widest across temples (Fig. 5). Head surface with extremely delicate, very fine and dense punctation. Puncture diameter about 4.0 times as small as eye facet. Distances between punctures slightly smaller than their diameter, interspaces smooth, slightly shining. Antennae rather long, antennal segments 1 – 3 and 5 elongated; segments 4 and 6 – 7 slightly elongated; segments 8 – 10 about as long as wide; segment 11 elongated, conical. Last 3 segments more massive than others and form loose club (Fig. 5). Pronotum widest about 2 / 3 its length from base, then narrowed. Lateral margin smoothly rounded (Fig. 5). Ratio of pronotum length to its maximum width about 19: 26. Surface of pronotum with extremely delicate, very fine and dense punctation. Puncture diameter about 4.0 times as small as eye facet. Distances between punctures slightly smaller than their diameter, interspaces smooth, slightly shining. Pronotal disc with 2 pairs of prominent, symmetrical depressions merging across midline into 2 depressions (horseshoe-shaped near base and butterfly-shaped in central part of disc) and with 1 small, unpaired, oval depression apically along midline (Fig. 5). Ratio of length of elytra to their combined width about 27: 32. Scutellum with weak, round depressions (Fig. 5). Surface of elytra with extremely delicate, very fine and dense punctation. Puncture diameter about 3.0 times as small as eye facet. Distances between punctures slightly smaller than their diameter, interspaces smooth, slightly shining. Abdomen delicately shagreened. Aedeagus of characteristic structure (Figs 6 – 7). Female. Unknown. COMPARATIVE REMARKS. The new species is very similar in colouration, body morphology, punctation patterns and depressions on the pronotal disc with species of the “ silvestris ” group [Gildenkov, 2014 a, b; 2015; 2019 a] and can belong to this group. It differs from Carpelimus silvestris (Cameron, 1918) and C. pseudosilvestris Gildenkov, 2014 that share the same habitats with the new species on Borneo in having shorter antennae and a slightly smaller body size. It can also be distinguished from C. pseudosilvestris by the shape of the depressions on the pronotum and from C. silvestris by more rounded temples. The new species clearly differs from all species of the “ silvestris ” group [Gildenkov, 2015: p. 377, Figs 7, 9 – 10, 12; p. 378, Figs 1, 3, 5) in the structure of the aedeagus (Figs 6 – 7).	en	Koch-Institut, Robert (2019): Infektionsepidemiologisches Jahrbuch meldepflichtiger Krankheiten für 2018.
