However, his specimens (from Iran) are not conspecific with those of Semenow (1894 a) from “Bucharia (in fact Turkmenistan, see Semenow, 1894 b), so Reitter’s text is in effect a description of a different species, P. jakowlewi Reitter, 1909 . To resolve homonymy, Semenov-Tian-Shansky (1910: 435) proposed a new name Prosodes neopersis for Reitter’s specimens from Ala-Dagh (Iran, Razavi Khorasan Province, mountains near Bojnourd). Semenow and Reitter were in contact and traded materials, so the specimens from Ala-Dagh in the ZIN are also parts of the original syntype series, and are now paralectotypes. Prosodes neopersis was placed as a junior synonym of Prosodes cribrella vestita Allard, 1880 (Bogačev &amp; Kryzhanovskij 1960; Löbl et al. 2008) and resurrected here as a valid species. Bogačev &amp; Kryzhanovskij (1960: 273) made a nonsense nomenclatural act when synonymised female of P. neopersis with P. cribrella vestita, and male of P. neopersis with P. jakowlewi Semenov. Both synonymies are not supported in this paper.</p><p>Medvedev (1996) placed type specimens of P. neopersis Semenov ( P. jakowlewi Reitter) and P. jakowlewi Semenov in the same series in the collection of ZIN. He interpreted a specimen of P. neopersis from Turkmenistan (Kara-Kala) as P. mithras . Additionally he described P. exilis (Medvedev 1996) from Iranian Kopet Dag, which is conspecific with P. neopersis . Males of P. neopersis are variable and have elytra from almost smooth (fig. 5A, J) to moderately (fig. 5I) and strongly (fig. 4J) sculptured. Males with smooth and sculptured elytra can be found within the same populations.</p><p>Distribution.

Prosodes kasatkini sp. n. is similar among the described species to Prosodes vigi G.

The male of P. kasatkini sp. n. differs from that of P. laevigata by dull body ( P. laevigata has strongly shiny body), narrowly and weakly beaded lateral margins and not flattened lateral sides of wider pronotum, and denser net of elytral microwrinkles. The female of P. kasatkini sp. n. differs from that of P. laevigata and P. vigi in the groovelike, not depressed wrinkles (both other species have weakly depressed wrinkles); from P. vigi additionally in the more slender body. The new species differs from all other species of the subgenus Meropersina in the absence of deeply depressed wrinkles on elytra, from P. cordicollis Allard, 1883 and P. vermiculosa Reitter, 1909 in the absence of sharp prominence in inner side of male protibiae. Prosodes kasatkini sp. n. is the most similar to P. shokhini sp. n., differences from which see in the diagnosis of P. shokhini sp. n.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03F48782FFA8DB7132F0C10B5679C511	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
