03F43270FF8F2D2F7DA6FE25E609A6AB.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis. A species with long-oval elytra, more regularly globose pronotum with less rounded elongation towards base, and moderately convex eyes with small genae. Chaetotaxy of the elytron is as follows: 1 basal, 1 subhumeral, 2 umbilical, 1 praeapical, and 1 dorsal setigerous punctures. Distinguished from the most similar species R. concameratus by the more slender total appearance, the absence of the second dorsal setigerous puncture, the shape of the pronotum with subcircular outline, the shape of the elytra with its maximum width at middle, the less convex elytra (lateral view), the more impressed punctures of the elytral striae which are in addition more distinctly impressed up to the apex, and the different shape of the endophallus. Another similar species is R. ellipsoideus which is distinguished by the much finer lateral channel of the pronotum, the presence of two dorsal setigerous punctures on the elytron, and the different shape of the endophallus. The geographically close species R. convexipennis is rather easily distinguishable from the new species because it exhibits three subhumeral setigerous punctures, and the pronotum is strikingly depressed with the lateral margin distinct at the anterior and posterior setigerous punctures only.	en	Michael Balkenohl, Joachim Schmidt (2016): Reicheiodes GANGLBAUER, 1891 from Nepal: Description of a new species, and supplemental iconography of the Himalayan species (Insecta: Coleoptera: Carabidae: Dyschiriini).

03F43270FF832D2D7DA6FB15E4F4A34E.taxon	discussion	Remarks. The new record confirms previous finds. Up to today, this species is known from Mt. Phulchoki on the southern border of Kathmandu Valley and from Shivapuri Lekh on the northern border of Kathmandu Valley (Balkenohl & Schmidt 2015). Based on the investigation of larger series (see also Balkenohl & Schmidt 2015) we found that the populations from both these localities vary morphologically. Specimens from the Shivapuri Lekh have, on average, less impressed striae on the elytra than those from Mt. Phulchoki. However, this feature seems to vary continuously with no distinct limit between the different populations. Additional investigations based on more comprehensive material are thus needed to understand the actual geographical variation of the species.	en	Michael Balkenohl, Joachim Schmidt (2016): Reicheiodes GANGLBAUER, 1891 from Nepal: Description of a new species, and supplemental iconography of the Himalayan species (Insecta: Coleoptera: Carabidae: Dyschiriini).

03F43270FF812D2C7DA6FD90E652A65B.taxon	description	Supplemented redescription. Ventral surface: No differences observed among sexes. Male genitalia (Figs 9, 10): Median lobe moderately sclerotized, regularly arcuate in middle part, slightly flattened and distorted in apical half, apex formed by broad asymmetrically rounded spatula, slantwise attached to medial lobe, dorsally and ventrally with some short minute pili in basal half. Oroficium nearly half as long as lobe, closing lips less sclerotized. Endophallus in apical half with bunch of minute bristles (visible in lateral view at 500 times by optimized condenser). Parameres asymmetrical, both somewhat twisted, length of the ventral one a third of the dorsal one; both parameres with two short setae at apex (160 times). Female genitalia (Fig. 11): Coxostylus conspicuously small, slender, dorso-ventrally flattened, bent in apical half, carinate in apical two thirds, with one long nematiform seta at apex distinctly longer than coxostylus. Ramus securiform. Variation: In the six specimens investigated, the globosity of the pronotum varies so that the lateral channel is more or less visible dorsally. The anterior transverse line is more or less expressed as punctured line or broader punctures, and the lateral wrinkles vary from specimen to specimen. On the elytron the posterior one of the two dorsal setigerous punctures is more or less faintly developed (best visible at 120 times onwards), and the basal setigerous puncture is either situated in the projection of the first stria or slightly more approaching the extension of the second interval. In some specimens the coloration at the apex of the elytra is less pale than in the holotype.	en	Michael Balkenohl, Joachim Schmidt (2016): Reicheiodes GANGLBAUER, 1891 from Nepal: Description of a new species, and supplemental iconography of the Himalayan species (Insecta: Coleoptera: Carabidae: Dyschiriini).
