Type area. Venezuela.</p> <p>Diagnosis.</p> <p>(cf. Figs 1, 2, 3, 4). Neck constricted, width less than that of base of pronotum; eyes moderately large, not hemispherical; frons moderately rugose, more or less anteriorly depressed. Prothorax more or less subequal in width to that of the head across eyes; sides of pronotum narrowly reflexed throughout, more broadly reflexed and markedly angulate at mid-lateral setigerous pore. Elytron at basal third not depressed, surface even, disc striate and punctate. Flight wings of a dusky color. Basitarsus of mid and hind legs markedly elongate, co-equal to length of tarsomeres 2-5; claws serrate. Male only with two rows of white adhesive setae on venter of tarsomeres 1-3; both sexes with long hooked white setae on tarsomere 5. Male with a pair of setae each side on abdominal sternum VII; female with 3 setae each side on abdominal sternum VII. Male endophallus without flagellum.</p> <p>Dispersal potential.</p> <p>The wings are fully developed in adults of all known species, thus it is likely these beetles are moderate to strong flyers.</p> <p>Geographic distribution.</p> <p>A widespread Neotropical genus known from Colombia, south to southeastern Brazil, in the west to Bolivia, and northeast to French Guiana.</p> <p>Ways of life.</p> <p>Little is known about the species in this genus and the little that is known is reported here for the first time. Adults of one species are regularly collected in both the wet and dry seasons using insecticidal fogging techniques in many species of trees reaching the forest canopy in the Amazon Basin, thus they are certainly most times arboreal. They are good flyers as evidenced by their capture in FITs in French Guiana.</p> <p>Notes.</p> <p>Only one species has been previously described in this genus from Venezuela and from only one specimen. Adults of the species most commonly collected in canopy samples in Ecuador and Perú were misidentified as T. rugifrons Liebke, but that species is only known to be from Venezuela and French Guiana. To date, the most common species in canopy samples is described below, as new.</p> <p>References.</p> <p>Liebke 1939; Erwin 1991.</p> <p>Included species.</p> <p>The species list below, as well as the arrangement of descriptions that follows, is ordered alphabetically within two species groups.</p> <p>rugifrons species group</p> <p>Thoasia rugifrons Liebke, 1939, French Guiana, Venezuela.</p> <p>Thoasia surinamensis Erwin &amp; Aldebron, sp. n., Suriname.</p> <p>Thoasia pterosmaragdos Aldebron &amp; Erwin, sp. n., French Guiana.</p> <p>manu species group</p> <p>Thoasia manu Erwin &amp; Aldebron, sp. n., Ecuador, Perú.</p> </div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/B943F06A5EF156EAC9ACBBBC5A113AB0	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

In these forests, they are commonly found in big trees such as species of Guarea, Virola, Spondias, Quararibea with vines and epiphytes, and in suspended dry leaves, in dry fronds of Astrocaryum chambira Burret, Maurita flexuosa, Jessenia bataua, Iriartea deltoidea and Scheelea sp. and in dry bamboo leaves of the species Guadua weberbaueri Pilg. Individuals are found in most months of the year, during both the rainy and dry seasons. Members of this species have been recorded from the canopy of the aforementioned genera and other vegetation noted below using insecticidal fogging techniques.

Poirier)(NMNH: ADP141236).</p> <p>Derivation of specific epithet.</p> <p>The epithet, Straneotia moi, comes from the Wayampi word for snake, referring to the snake-like appearance of the species head. The Wayampi are indigenous to French Guiana (Payne 1999).</p> <p>Proposed English Vernacular Name.</p> <p>Snake-head arboreal carabid.</p> <p>Diagnosis.</p> <p>With the attributes of the genus and the Straneotia freyi species group as described above and adults with testaceous, brown, and rufous hues on elytra, each elytron with irregular testaceous discal pattern, interrupted by narrow, transverse waves of dark brown, with basal third, rufous. Head behind eyes almost two times more than length of eye.</p> <p>Description.</p> <p>(Fig. 4B). Habitus: (Fig. 4B). Size: See Appendix 1. Length (SBL) average for genus, ABL = 6.69 mm, SBL = 5.35 mm.</p> <p>Color: See diagnosis above. Luster: Elytra, forebody, and head markedly shiny. Microsculpture: Elytron with mostly isodiametric and slightly stretched and moderately impressed sculpticells. Head and pronotum transversely microsculptured. Head: Frons with two pairs of carinae extending from base of clypeus, converging to produce a V-shape in line with the beginning of the eye. Rugae of lateral occiput and neck mostly transverse, very finely etched. Eye not produced, barely convex. Antennae moderately long, reaching slightly behind humerus. Labrum large, spatula-shaped, with anterior angles broader than posterior angles. Neck finely transversely rugose at sides. Mouthparts distinct from S. freyi with labial palpomeres apically truncate and ligula markedly narrow with pair of setal pores medially close-spaced, with less than the width of their diameter between them. Prothorax: Pronotum very narrow, cylindrical with slight lateral explanation; disc centrally narrowly planar, marked by a faint testaceous stripe and dense transverse rugae. Hind angles acute, subtly wider. Pterothorax: Normal for Agrina, fully winged, flight wings translucent. Elytron intervals 3, 5, and 7 with numerous discal setae, intervals slightly convex, side margin moderately explanate. Elytron moderately broad and short, tapering markedly towards apex, markedly wider than the pronotum at the broadest part, apex truncate, markedly sinuate with distal corner obtusely rounded, disc not significantly convex, basal third slightly depressed. All interneurs well-impressed and micropunctate. Legs: Normal for Agrina, no unique modi fications. Abdomen: Glabrous except normal ambulatory setae on sterna 3-5; female with two pairs of ambulatory setae on sternum VI. Male genitalia: Unstudied. Female genitalia: Unstudied but likely similar to that of S. cylindroceps (cf. Fig. 6a).</p> <p>Dispersal potential.</p> <p>These beetles are macropterous and probably capable of flight.</p> <p>Way of life.</p> <p>Adults, as supported by the collection of the type specimen by malaise trap, are most likely a canopy dwelling species of tropical rainforests.
