BODY (Fig. 1A): Length (TL) 1.1 mm (HT), range 1.08–1.26mm (average, 1.19 mm, n=21). Body ovoid, regularly convex, colour reddish brown, densely pubescent with long and semidecumbent light yellow hairs.</p><p>HEAD: Eyes large (EyL= 60µm [HT], range 55-71µm. n=6) widely separated (IoD= 220µm [HT], range 201- 230µm, n=6), notched posteriorly. Head thinly margined, with only a few shallow, setigerous punctures on the vertex and around the disc of the frons. Antennae long (AnL= 407µm), segments 3–7 parallel-sided and elongate, 8 th elongate with sides curved; 9–10 clubbed, basally regularly moniliform; 11 th oval.</p><p>THORAX: Pronotum wide (PW= 0.49mm [HT], range 0.46–0.57mm, n=21), unicolorous, transverse (1.55- 1.82, PW:PL), widest behind middle, regularly convex, lateral margins explanate and slightly elevated, edges serrated and ciliated with backwardly arranged hairs, base sinuate and narrowly impressed throughout, hind corners laterally sinuate and projected outwards slightly. Pronotal surface shiny, microsculpture absent, without any trace of medial impression or fovea, narrowed basally, puncturation deeply impressed, punctures 5–6µm wide and spaced 2–3x their diameter, regularly distributed, setigerous, each puncture with a long, semidecumbent hair. Elytra wide (EW= 0.57mm [HT], range 0.54-0.62mm, n=21), convex, oval, base bordered, humerus not denticulate although the serrated elytral edge may give the appearance of a denticle. Surface shiny, microsculpture absent, strongly punctured throughout, punctures setigerous, with semidecumbent yellow hairs clearly longer (40–50µm, [HT]) and denser on sides than on disc, puncturation densest at base and disc, becoming gradually sparser towards the apex and sides. Lateral edge of elytra expanded from humerus and gradually becoming narrower towards apex, serrated in basal quarter. Scutellum triangular, with a few shallow setigerous punctures.</p><p>Alae of usual Sindosium type (Fig. 2F).</p><p>Proventrum (Fig. 2A) narrowed longitudinally in front of procoxae, with single deep, c-shaped fovea on either side of each coxa, almost as long as the coxal length and strongly impressed throughout. Combined coxal width 3/5 the width of the anterior prothoracic aperture. Anterior and posterior margins of the proventrite with a row of distinctly impressed, elongate foveae.</p><p>Mesoventrum, with strongly impressed collar which does not clearly slope backwards but ends sharply on to the lateral margins. Latter without distinct humeri, collar with a posterior, triangular projection. Disc of mesoventrum with a non-carinate projection (keel) that rises abruptly and almost touches the much smaller posterior projection of the collar, latter with a pair of deep and densely pubescent depressions posteriorly. Mesocoxae close, separated by 1/4–1/5 of their width,</p><p>Metaventrum with scattered, long pubescence, dense laterally and absent on disc, anterior edge raised and projected between mesocoxae, posterior edge with sinuate, regularly acuminate bifid projection between metacoxae (Fig. 2B). Metaepisternal posterior suture widely divergent from anterior suture, never subparallel or convergent (Fig. 1B).</p><p>ABDOMEN (Fig. 2C): Each ventrite with a basal row of setae on disc, each seta emerging from a strong pore that is granular on ventrites 4–5. Row of setae on 5 th ventrite much denser than on the other abdominal segments.</p><p>Aedaegus (Fig. 2E) typical of Sindosium, with well developed parameres, quite narrowed in the middle and sporting a pair of pores, their apices slightly spatulate, at apex with three elongate and isometric setae, apical seta pointing forward, proximal setae closely set, pointing medially. Median lobe wider than in S. lamingtoni n.sp., with apex regularly acuminate, the endophallic pore situated almost midway along its length and with a larger and more developed internal structure that is M-shaped and located well below the paramere apices. Spermatheca (Fig. 2D) bulbous, non-symmetrical, with neck narrower than base, the latter obviously bent and completely not aligned with neck.</p><p>Etymology: named after the Australian state of Queensland, to which it is restricted.</p><p>Diagnosis: morphologically it is closest to S. lamingtoni n.sp., from which it can be distinguished by the shape of the 8 th antennal segment (parallel in S. queenslandicum n.sp. and basally ovoid in S. lamingtoni n.sp.), the shape of the hind corners of the thorax, width and relative shape of the of the metaepisternum (Fig. 2A &amp; Fig. 4A), shape of the bifid tooth between the metacoxae (Fig. 2B &amp; Fig. 4B) and genitalia. Both species closely resemble S. foveatum Johnson, 2007 and S. collinsi Darby, 2019 . From the former they can easily be distinguished by the lack of impressions on the thorax and the shape of the aedaegi. From the latter by the much longer pubescence, the structure of the mesoventrum (collar more acutely developed, sulci on either side of projection smaller) and narrower separation of the mesocoxae.</p><p>Distribution: restricted to areas within Mid-East and North-East Queensland, probably limited to vine thickets or rainforest patches (Fig. 5).</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03F987E9FFA6FFE6FF54F4D1FE64FBDB	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Pronotal surface shiny, microsculture absent, without any trace of medial impression or fovea, narrowed basally, puncturation clearly impressed, punctures 4–5µm wide and spaced 3–5x their diameter, regularly distributed, setigerous, each with a long, semidecumbent hair. Elytra wide (EW= 0.60mm [HT], range 0.60–0.72mm, n=6), convex, oval, base bordered, humerus not denticulate although the serrated elytral edge may give the appearance of a denticle. Surface shiny, microsculpture absent, strongly punctured throughout, punctures setigerous, with semidecumbent yellow hairs densely arranged and of similar length on elytral disc and sides (length [HT] 50–70µm), puncturation densest at base and disc, becoming gradually sparser towards the apex and sides. Lateral edge of elytra expanded from humerus and gradually becoming narrower towards apex, serrated in basal quarter. Scutellum triangular, with a few shallow setigerous punctures.</p><p>Alae of usual Sindosium type.</p><p>Proventrum (Fig. 3A) narrowed longitudinally in front of procoxae, with a single c-shaped fovea on the anterolateral corner of each coxa, as long as the coxal length and deeply impressed. Combined coxal width half that of the anterior prothoracic aperture. Anterior and posterior margins of the proventrite with a row of elongate foveae, anterior row well impressed, posterior one mostly efaced.</p><p>Mesoventrum, with well impressed collar which does not clearly slope backwards but ends sharply on to the lateral margins. Latter without distinct humeri, collar with posterior projection elongate and apically rounded. Disc of mesoventrum with a non-carinate projection (keel) that rises abruptly and almost touches the much smaller posterior projection of the collar, posteriorly with a pair of deep and densely pubescent depressions.

Metaepisternal posterior suture (Fig. 3B) less divergent from anterior one, partially subparallel.</p><p>ABDOMEN (Fig. 4C): Each ventrite with a basal row of very fine setae on disc, each seta emerging from a small, fine pore. Setation similar in strength and density on all abdominal segments.</p><p>Aedaegus (Fig. 4E) typical of Sindosium with well developed parameres, strongly narrowed in the middle and sporting a pair of pores, apices parallel, at apex with three unequal setae, the apical one longest and facing forward, and the two shorter setae set clearly apart from the apical one, aproximate and pointing medially. Median lobe narrower than previous species, with apex converging to a sinuate point, the endophallic pore situated in the apical 4 th and with a very simplified and reduced internal structure that is level with paramere apices. Spermatheca (Fig. 4D) bulbous, almost symmetrical, with neck wider than base, regularly converging and aligned with neck.</p><p>Etymology: named after Lamington National Park (Queensland, Australia), locality where the majority of the specimens of this new species have been collected.</p><p>Diagnosis: see comparative diagnosis under S. queenslandicum n.sp.</p><p>Distribution: restricted to South-East Queensland with one isolated record from MEQ. The paucity of records in such a well collected area suggests that the species is either rare or has highly restricted habitat needs which are limited to the higher reaches of mountains peaks in SEQ such as the Scenic Rim and the Bunya Mountains (Fig. 5, see discussion). Similar habitats occur in the New South Wales North Coast (NSWNC), so additional populations are expected in this area.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03F987E9FFA2FFEAFF54F4B5FE14F9F7	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
