03BCD06FDF03FFFC1FB488C82A2BFBA5.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis The genus Aetheomorpha can be recognized by the following characters: body cylindrical or suboval; head small, very short, smooth, perpendicular; mandibles very short; eyes small; antennae more or less robust, second and third antennomeres short and subconical, following antennomeres triangular; pronotum variable; scutellum large; elytra more or less lobed at sides; legs feeble, tarsi short, first tarsomere longer than second, third small, fourth slender; pygidium more or less exposed. This genus is very closely allied to the genus Smaragdina, but is usually distinguished by the following characters: antennae more robust; elytra with more or less distinct epipleural lobes; tarsi short; pygidium exposed. According to Jacoby (1908), Aetheomorpha was not well defined as a genus-level taxon and is most possibly a transitional form.	en	Wang, Feng-Yan, Zhou, Hong-Zhang (2012): Taxonomy of the genus Aetheomorpha Lacordaire (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae: Cryptocephalinae: Clytrini) from China, with description of five new species.

The obviously broad bidentate aedeagal apex is a useful character by which to recognize A. furcata Medvedev and Kantner. Moreover, this species also has the following characters: vertex and scutellum fulvous, body more slender, spermathecal duct very long, loosely coiled dozens of times with a thickened base. Moreover, the dorsal rectal sclerites are different from those in the other congeneric species, central sclerite is semicircular, lateral ones are sub-triangular.	en	Wang, Feng-Yan, Zhou, Hong-Zhang (2012): Taxonomy of the genus Aetheomorpha Lacordaire (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae: Cryptocephalinae: Clytrini) from China, with description of five new species.

The holotype of A. bowditchi Gressitt and Kimoto bears the following labels: Yunnan, Museum of Comparative Zoology, D 152, MCZ Type 35485, Holotype, Aetheomorpha bowditchi Gressitt & Kimoto. Based on the colour photographs and the original description of A. taiwana Chûjô, we can recognize this species by the following characters: pronotum has a sub-rhombic spot, elytron has a black lateral stripe and three black bands with the second one interrupted in the middle. We examined a paratype of A. bowditchi Gressitt and Kimoto and found the pronotum with a broad median stripe from anterior margin to basal margin and the elytron with three broad blackish bands and a black stripe laterally. Kimoto (1974) treated A. bowditchi Gressitt and Kimoto as a synonym of A. taiwana Chûjô. As a result of different markings on pronotum and different bands on elytron, these two species differs from each other. However, without an opportunity to examine the holotypes of these two species, we leave the problem open for future study. Kimoto (1974) mentioned in the citation of A. taiwana Chûjô that the original name was Cyaniris taiwana Chûjô, 1934. But this is not correct: A. taiwana is the original form and was described firstly by Chûjô (1952).	en	Wang, Feng-Yan, Zhou, Hong-Zhang (2012): Taxonomy of the genus Aetheomorpha Lacordaire (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae: Cryptocephalinae: Clytrini) from China, with description of five new species.

Elytra 1.4 times as long as wide, nearly parallel-sided in anterior half, narrowed posteriorly behind the middle; feebly lobed below shoulders; surface lustrous, with fine punctures, interstices 1.5 – 2 times the diameter of a puncture at base near suture, and the punctures reducing posteriorly and laterally, disappearing in apical slopes. Epipleura broad, about half of elytral length. Pygidium partly free, apex narrowly rounded. Underside of body and legs covered with short silvery pubescence; tarsi broad, length ratio of protarsomeres 1.3: 1.0: 0.2: 2.2. Aedeagus pale, apex slightly bent ventrally, underside with a ridge in the middle, a ridge at each lateral margin, area between the ridges shallowly depressed. Female. Body more robust, head not protruded; abdomen more inflated, pygidium exposed, apex slightly incised, sometimes brownish; legs more slender; spermatheca moderate, spermathecal duct very long, anterior two-thirds thin, firstly helically coiled, then loosely winded, posterior one-third thicker, with long and inflated base; ventral rectal sclerites large and long, dorsal central sclerite reduced into two extremely small sclerites; lateral ones moderate. Measurement Males: 5.1 – 5.7 mm, females: 5.2 – 5.9 mm.	en	Wang, Feng-Yan, Zhou, Hong-Zhang (2012): Taxonomy of the genus Aetheomorpha Lacordaire (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae: Cryptocephalinae: Clytrini) from China, with description of five new species.

03BCD06FDF1BFFD81FB289492E98FE67.taxon	discussion	Remarks. After submission of this article, we received the reviewers’ comments from the editor almost at same time as the work of Medvedev (2010) was published. We carefully reconsidered the species, especially the new species included in our original manuscript, and found that our new species is the same as Aetheomorpha weigeli Medvedev, a new species proposed in his paper. Hence, we made changes and adopted his name here, but we preserved the description and figures as they were. This treatment may be helpful for the future study and taxonomic emendation if required. According to our study, Aetheomorpha weigeli Medvedev has a colour pattern of pronotum and elytra that is close to that of A. suturata (Jacoby, 1898) and A. jacobyi Medvedev, 1988, but there are some clear and stable differences listed below that can be used to distinguish this species from the most closely allied or other congeneric species: pronotum has four black spots, central ones sometimes combined; elytra irregularly punctured, but not punctate-striated; underside of aedeagus has three ridges, especially a high central ridge, which is very different from other congeneric species. Moreover, Aetheomorpha weigeli Medvedev is found currently only in Yunnan, whereas A. suturata (Jacoby) is found in Nepal, India and Indochina and A. jacobyi Medvedev in Assam.	en	Wang, Feng-Yan, Zhou, Hong-Zhang (2012): Taxonomy of the genus Aetheomorpha Lacordaire (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae: Cryptocephalinae: Clytrini) from China, with description of five new species.
