CW Cyprus, Troodos Mts., Pano Platres, 34°52’N 32°52’E.</p><p>Diagnosis. Medium­sized, rather stout and covex species (Fig. 1); frons golden green, vertex dark blue to black, pronotum and basal fourth of elytra blue­green, rest of elytra purple; pronotum with two large, black spots, scutellum black with green lustre; antennae and legs black, ventral side dark blue­green, abdominal ventrites nearly black with golden reflections laterally; head with rather long, errected, white pubescence, pronotum and elytra with short, semierrected white pubescence; ventral side with short and sparse white pubescence which is denser and longer on metacoxae and metafemora; generally this species resembles small, convex and mat specimens of Anthaxia salicis .</p><p>Description of the holotype. Head relatively small, frons slightly depressed medially, vertex flat; eyes large, reniform but not projecting beyond outline of head, vertex as wide as width of eye; sculpture of head consisting of large, polygonal cells with small, nearly indistinct central grains, cells on vertex slightly longitudinally prolonged; antennae relatively short, not reaching posterior pronotal angles; 1st antennomere clubbed, three times as long as wide, 2nd antennomere pear­shaped, twice as long as wide, 3rd antennomere slightly triangular, 2.50 times as long as wide; antennomeres 4–10 triangular, as wide as long, terminal antennomere ovoid.</p><p>Pronotum 2.01 times as wide as long, slightly and regularly convex, laterobasal pronotal depressions nearly indistinct; anterior margin strongly, posterior margin slightly bisinuous; lateral margins nearly regularly rounded, maximum pronotal width just anteriad of its midlength; pronotal sculpture consisting of bilateral, fountain­like sculpture (Fig. 7) composed of rather rough, arched wrinkles on prescutellar part of pronotum; lateral parts of pronotum with large, polygonal cells with distinct central grains, cells laterally of fountain­like sculpture longitudinally prolonged and branched; anterior part of pronotum (just posteriad of medial lobe) consisting of slightly transversely enlarged cells with small central grains. Scutellum nearly triangular, as long as wide, microsculptured and slightly convex.</p><p>Elytra 1.62 times as long as wide, rather robust and regularly convex, slightly but distinctly enlarged at posterior 2/3; apical third of elytral margin finely but distinctly serrate, each elytron separately, obtusely rounded; humeral swellings small but well­developed, transverse basal depression complete, reaching scutellum; elytral epipleura well­developed but not reaching elytral apex; elytral sculpture dense and rough laterally, sparser and finer on elytral disc, consisting of rough punctures and short, transverse wrinkles; flat elytral depressions characteristic for the whole A. salicis species­group only weakly developed.</p><p>Ventral side lustrous, prosternum widely ocellate with tiny central grains, metasternum very finely ocellate with indistinct central grains, ventrites finely reticulate; anal ventrite regularly rounded apically with indistinct lateral, preapical serration. legs relatively short, meso­ and metatibiae with fine and regular, inner serration in distal half (Fig. 6). Claws small, hook­shaped, slightly enlarged at base.</p><p>Aedeagus (Fig. 10) only weakly sclerotised, basal part of parameres becoming slightly wider from base to 1/3, than strongly narrowed.</p><p>Female. Female differs from male by somewhat stouter body, completely dark blue head, somewhat wider vertex (1.20 times as wide as width of eye) and by simple meso­ and metatibiae.</p><p>Measurements. Length: 5.0– 6.5 mm (holotype 5.0 mm); width: 2.0– 2.7 mm (holotype 2.0 mm).</p><p>Variability. No variability was observed in colouration except for the different colouration of the frons in male and female (see above). Ratio of width to length of pronotum in all type specimens varies between 1.95 and 2.18, ratio of elytral length to width between 1.56 and 1.63.</p><p>Etymology. The Greek name ” Anadyomene ” (emerging) was an epithet of the godness Aphrodyte born on Cyprus.</p><p>Distribution. Central western Cyprus.</p><p>Differential diagnosis. They are only a few species of the Anthaxia salicis speciesgroup with completely blue­green elytral base: A. permisa Abeille de Perrin, 1904 (type Ψ in MNCN), A. shirasensis Obenberger, 1940 (type ɗ in NMPC) and A. herbertschmidi Novak, 1992 (we have studied only 1 Ψ from the type locality: Turkey, Termessos from MNCA). The blue­green basal part of elytra of the specimen of A. herbertschmidi is large, covering the basal third of elytra and the purple colouration of the posterior part of elytra is prolonged anteriad along the elytral suture. The basal, blue­green field of A. anadyomene n. sp. is limited only to the anterior elytral fourth covering the humeral swellings and being slightly prolonged behind the humeri along elytral margins. The purple colouration of the elytra is not prolonged anteriad along the suture, being truncate or slightly concave anteriorly. Besides its colouration, A. anadyomene n. sp. differs from these other species by the mat and rather stout body, pronotal sculpture and different male genitalia. It is rather similar to A. herbertschmidi from which it differs by the simply rounded anal sternite and elytral apex of the female and by the form of the male metatibiae and genitalia (see ” Note ”) below.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03A18796FFF8FFC1FEBCB916FE8CFE2A	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

NW Syria, Jabal an Nuºayriyah Mts., 40 km E of Latakia, Şlinfah, 35°35’N 36°12’E, ~ 1500 m.</p><p>Diagnosis. Medium­sized, moderately convex and lustrous species (Fig. 2); head golden green (male) or golden green with large, dark violet central spot (female); pronotum blue­green with two large, black fields, space between them golden green; antennae and legs black, scutellum and basal third of elytra blue­green; apical two thirds of elytra purple, this purple colouration somewhat prolonged anteriad along the elytral suture; ventral side dark blue­green with golden tinge, abdominal ventrites golden­coppery along lateral margins; frons with rather long, errect white pubescence, pronotum and elytra with short, semierrect gray pubescence; ventral side covered with homogeneous, sparse and recumbent, short, grey pubescence.</p><p>Description of the holotype. Head small, frons flat with indistinct medial depression, vertex about as wide as width of eye; eyes large, reniform but not projecting beyond outline of head; sculpture of head consisting of small, dense, polygonal or rounded cells with indistinct central grains; antennae rather short, hardly reaching posterior pronotal angles; 1st antennomere clubbed, four times as long as wide, 2nd antennomere pear­shaped, twice as long as wide, 3rd antennomere 2.50 times as long as wide, slightly triangular; antennomeres 4–10 triangular, about as long as wide, terminal antennomere ovoid.</p><p>Pronotum 1.93 times as wide as long, flattened, laterobasal pronotal depressions indistinct; posterior margin slightly, anterior margin rather deeply bisinuous, lateral margins regularly rounded; pronotal sculpture consisting of two bilateral, slightly concentric fields of fine wrinkles (Fig. 8); sculpture between these fields and lateral margins consisting of large, polygonal cells with large central grains, sculpture of anterior part of pronotum rather irregular, consisting of indistinct cells, fine punctures and wrinkles. Scutellum as wide as long, cordiform to pentagonal, microsculptured and slightly convex.</p><p>Elytra 1.70 times as long as wide, subparallel in anterior two thirds an regularly arched in posterior third to separately rounded apices; apical third of elytra with distinct lateral serration, epipleuras well­developed but nearly reaching apex of elytra; humeral swellings small but well­developed, basal transverse depression deep, nearly reaching scutellum; elytral sculpture consisting of irregular, rough punctures and short wrinkles, withour basal microsculpture; each elytron with 3 shallow and wide depressions: one at basal third and two on posterior half.</p><p>Ventral side lustrous, prosternum with large, metasternum with small polygonal or oval cells without distinct central grains, sculpture of ventrites somewhat tile­shaped. Anal ventrite obtusely rounded without distinct lateral serration. Legs relatively short, metatibiae with fine serration on inner side (Fig. 5), mesotibiae only with several, preapical denticles on inner margin.</p><p>Aedeagus (Fig. 11) long, moderately sclerotised, basal part of parameres nearly regularly narrowed posteriad.</p><p>Female. The female differs from the male only by a larger and stouter body, simple meso­ and metatibiae and by the colouration of frons (see above).</p><p>Measurements. Length: 4.9–6.1 mm (holotype 4.9 mm); width: 1.8–2.3 mm (holotype 1.8 mm).</p><p>Variability. No variability was observed in colouration except for the different colour of frons in male and female. The ratio of width to length of the pronotum in all type specimens varies between 1.90 and 2.08, ratio of elytral length to width between 1.62 and 1.76.</p><p>Etymology. The species name ” syriaca ” is derived from the country of the origin of holotype: Syria.</p><p>Distribution. Northern Israel, northwestern Syria, southern Turkey.</p><p>Differential diagnosis. Anthaxia syriaca n. sp. differs from other species of A. salicis species­group with the blue­green elytral basal third of less brilliant colouration, less developed and somewhat rougher concentric wrinkles on pronotum, by the inner serration of male metatibiae and by the form of aedeagus). From A. herbertschmidi, it differs by the simply rounded anal ventrite and unmodified elytral apex of the female.</p><p>Note. Anthaxia herbertschmidi possesses some characters which are rather strange in the A. salicis species­group. The deeply notched anal ventrite of the female is very strange in the subgenus Anthaxia and the curious apical incurvation of the elytra in the female is quite unique in the whole genus (Figs 6, 7 in Novak, 1995). Also the form of the aedeagus (Fig. 4 in Novak, 1992) is not characteristic for this species­group although this illustration is really not adequate.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03A18796FFFFFFC2FEBCBA7CFDD0F8CA	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
