03B24544FFCB2D5A35C6E289FE09FC3C.taxon	description	Holotype habitus (Figure 1 A) (BL = 2.25 mm, BW / BL = 0.756), and paratype habitus (Figure 1 B) (BL = 2.5 mm, BW / BL = 0.74). Ventrites (Figure 1 C). The male (holotype) was brittle and the antennae difficult to display without damage, so Figure 1 D shows a female antenna. Anthrenus mumbaiensis has a single ocellus on the vertex, typical of Dermestidae (except Dermestinae) and a notch on the inner margin of the eye, typical of Anthrenus subgenus Anthrenus. Anthrenus mumbaiensis is coated in broad orange and white scales on a background of black scales. Each elytron has three clear white spots of scales close to the outer margin: sub-basally, just past mid-point, and sub-apically. In addition, there are two further clear white spots of scales close to the elytral suture: sub-apically and mid-point. The elytral suture carries orange scales as a thin band from the elytral apex to the mid-point white spot and from there to the scutellum region the orange scales form a broader band admixed with white scales, with orange and white scales fanning out left and right from the scutellum. Otherwise, orange scales are randomly scattered across the elytra on a background of black scales. The pronotum carries two patches of white scales at the anterior margin of the pronotum directly behind each eye. More white patches occur along the outer margins admixed with orange scale and at approximately halfway along the outer margin orange and white scales form a loose band across the pronotum. The middle of posterior margin of the pronotum carries another patch of white scales bordered anteriorly by orange scales. The ventrites (Figure 1 C) are coated in white scales with small patches of black scales at the outer margins of the 2 nd to 5 th sternites. There is a large, square patch of black scales in the centre of the 5 th sternite. There is no black patch of scales (maybe one or two scales) on the outer margin of the 1 st sternite. The female antennae (Figure 1 D) remained attached and intact during dissection. One of the male antennal clubs snapped off but remains associated with the dissected specimen. ♁ AL = 189 µm, AW = 145 µm. ♀ AL = 162 µm, AW = 126 µm. All antennomeres are dark red. All components of the legs are also red. Figures 2 A and 2 B shows the dorsal aspect and ventral aspect of the aedeagus, respectively. The anterior halves of the parameres are slim with the outer and inner margins converging slightly. The posterior halves of the parameres are broad, flat and knife-shaped. The outer margins curve smoothly round to pointed tips, and from the tips the inner margins are convex. The dorsal surfaces (Figure 2 A) of the posterior halves of the parameres carry some scattered, relatively short setae. On the ventral surfaces (Figure 2 B), the paramere tips carry long, inward pointing, pubescence. These pubescent setae continue for a short way down the inner margins of the parameres. The pubescence is concentrated on the ventral surface although visible between the parameres in Figure 2 A. The median lobe falls short of the paramere tips. The median lobe narrows gradually from the base towards the tip. Close to the tip, the margins converge more noticeably to meet at a sharp tip. PL = 425 µm. Figure 2 C shows sternite IX. The sternite was damaged during dissection and one anterior horn became detached. The outer margins of the posterior lobe are covered in short, spikey setae, many of which are curved at the tip. The tip of the posterior lobe forms a flattened curve with a small central nipple. Moving towards the anterior horns the outer margins converge slightly to form a slight neck before expanding to form the anterior horns. SL = 500 µm. Figure 3 shows the collection location of A. mumbaiensis. Anthrenus mumbaiensis is only known from two specimens, both from Mumbai.	en	Holloway, Graham J.

03B24544FFC92D5C35C6E034FD99FD14.taxon	description	A total of 34 A. festivus were dissected (27 ♁♁ and 7 ♀♀). Examples of A. festivus habitus (dorsal aspect) (Figure 4 A), ventrites (Figure 4 B), and antenna (Figure 4 C) are illustrated. All data were normally distributed and homoscedastic. Male BL = 2.417 ± 0.122 mm (mean ± standard deviation); female BL = 2.529 ± 0.115 mm. Male BL was significantly smaller than female BL (t 31 = 2.17, p = 0.038). 95 % of male BL would be expected to fall between 2.17 – 2.67 mm (study sample minimum and maximum = 2.05 mm and 2.65 mm, respectively). 95 % of female BL would be expected to fall between 2.25 mm and 2.81 mm (study sample minimum and maximum = 2.40 mm and 2.70 mm, respectively). Body width / body length (BW / BL) was calculated as a measure of body shape. Male BW / BL = 0.722 ± 0.016; female BW / BL = 0.709 ± 0.004. Male BW / BL differed marginally but significantly from female BW / BL (t 31 = 2.08, p = 0.46) indicating that males had a slightly rounder profile than females. 95 % of male BW / BL would be expected to fall between 0.689 – 0.755 (study sample minimum and maximum = 0.688 and 0.750, respectively). 95 % of female BW / BL would be expected to fall between 0.700 and 0.718 (study sample minimum and maximum = 0.703 and 0.714, respectively). Figure 4 C shows a typical example of an A. festivus antenna. For the antenna shown in Figure 4 C, AL = 161 µm and AW = 121 µm, AL / AW = 1.33. Figure 5 A and 5 B show an A. festivus aedeagus dorsal and ventral aspect, respectively. The example in Figures 5 A and 5 B shows slight sinuosity in the outer margin of the parameres, but this is not evident in all specimens. The parameres have very blunt, rounded tips and are slightly concave immediately round the tip along the inner margins. The surfaces of the parameres are covered in long, fine, forward pointing hairs. These hairs are located principally on the dorsal surface. At the tip of the parameres on the ventral surface, there are a few inward pointing hairs. The median lobe narrows steadily from the base to a blunt tip that falls short of the tips of the parameres. PL in the example shown in Figures 5 A and 5 B is 356 µm. Figure 5 C shows an example of male A. festivus sternite IX. The posterior lobe is broad and parallel sided to an evenly rounded end with a small notch at the very tip. The entire length of the margin of the posterior lobe displays long, spikey setae, except across the notch which is bare. The setae at the posterior end are slightly shorter and more numerous with a few emerging from the surface of the lobe as well as the margin. One of the anterior pointing horns is slightly damaged. SL = 439 µm. Figure 6 shows A. festivus distribution. Anthrenus festivus is distributed around western Mediterranean only and is principally coastal. The countries shaded grey are those listed as containing A. festivus in the World Catalogue (Háva 2023). Three countries: Germany, Switzerland, and Austria are hatched indicating dubious records resulting in their inclusion in the World Catalogue.	en	Holloway, Graham J.
