Body size: length 1.9–2.0 mm, width 1.35–1.40 mm.</p> <p>Colour: Yellow with extended dark brown markings on dorsum, especially on head (Figs. 2, 6). Venter mostly brownish. Legs and antennae yellow; rostrum light brown.</p> <p>Cephalonotum with lateral margins behind eyes slightly concave in dorsal view; sharp margin of pronotal part ending in short distance from posterolateral corner and there forming a small, rather blunt angulation; head with densely set small punctures, with very narrow interspaces, almost dull; disk of pronotum set with numerous very fine micropunctures, and with scattered, unequally distributed and somewhat larger punctures becoming denser towards sides. Mesoscutellum 0.9 times as long as wide, with puncturation of similar size, but slightly denser than on disk of pronotum, micropunctures medially obliterated. Hemelytron with slightly stronger puncturation, interspaces shagreened and dull. Genal plate stout; pronotal plate (Fig. 7) with shallow incision, anteriorly relatively wide. Inner corner of propleural plate broadly convex. Eye index: 2.1–2.2. Fourth rostral segment 2.3 times as long as segment 3.</p> <p>Ventral carinae (Fig. 8): Prosternal carina with posterior corner approximately rectangular, with posterior edge slightly concave; apices of meso- and metasternal carina thin-laminate, that on mesosternum strongly reduced; carina of sternite 3 with few small denticles, the proximal one variably enlarged. Abdominal segments strongly asymmetrical.</p> <p>Aedeagus (Fig. 9) moderately slender, apically rather stout and slightly bent to right side; with narrow apical plate posteriorly extended into short spine. Right paramere (Fig. 10) shorter than left paramere, slender-lanceolate, curved, apex minutely pointed. Left paramere (Fig. 11) moderately slender, distally evenly narrowed and slightly curved, apex narrowly rounded.</p> <p>Description of macropterous female. – Body size: length 2.1–2.2 mm, width 1.46–1.49 mm. Eye index: 2.1. Most characteristics similar to that of male, except the following. Abdomen symmetrical. Sternite 6 with concave hind margin. Subgenital plate (Fig. 12) with broad mediodistal lobe with broadly convex hind margin; inner ridge strongly concave, almost semicircular. Ventral laterotergites 8 slender.</p> <p>Hindwing-micropterous female: body size: length 2.1 mm, width 1.42 mm; eye index: 2.6; pronotum with posterolateral corners less elevated and with angulation of lateral margin more blunt; hemelytron without embolar and claval sutures; other characteristics as in brachypterous female.</p> <p>Hindwing-micropterous male: unknown.</p> <p>Etymology. – Named after the island of type locality. The species epithet is a Latinized adjective.</p> <p>Remarks. – This species belongs to the Hydrotrephes martini group as defined by Zettel (2000a). Hitherto, this species group contained eight described species, distributed on the islands of Borneo (five species), Sumatra, Siberut, and Nias (one species each) (Zettel, 2004a; Papá ek &amp; Zettel, 2005). Hydrotrephes langkawicus, new species is one of the smallest species of the genus; in the H. martini group only H. nitidus Zettel, 2004, a strongly shiny species with deeply emarginate prosternal carina, is of similar size. The genital structures of the male of H. langkawicus are characteristic. Further, the combination of the weakly emarginate prosternal carina, the reduced lamina on the mesosternal carina, and the lobate subgenital plate of the female is unique.</p> <p>Distribution. – Only known from the type locality on Langkawi Island.</p></div> 	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03D587CD4725FFCD228CFAC9609BAE77	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Black setae laterally on mesothorax and sternites similar with those of female, longest setae on sternites ca. 0.10 mm long. Dorsum of body with very short pubescence, but head and tergite 7 with some longer setae in addition. Suture between tergites 1 and 2 weak, other sutures between tergites well developed. Tergite 5 circa 8 times as wide as long at midline. Paramere (Fig. 15, 16) moderately curved at basal third, strongly twisted, relatively broad, subapically weakly widened (in caudal view), apex very acute.</p> <p>Description of macropterous male. – Body length 1.18 mm, body width 0.67 mm. Colour similar as in apterous morph, but posterior half of pronotum with half-ovate yellowish mark, and metafemora yellowish white in proximal three-fifths. Pronotum very large, at midline about 2.0 times as long as eye, covering meso- and metanotum, with distinct humeri. Wings of dealate specimen broken off at base, approximately at level of posterior apex of pronotum. All tergites almost flat, tergite 1 not longer than tergite 2.</p> <p>Macropterous female: unknown.</p> <p>Etymology. – This species is dedicated to Tohru Naruse, who accompanied the authors for field work in Langkawi.</p> <p>Remarks. – This species belongs to the S. esakii group as defined by Lansbury &amp; Zettel (1997). Within this group, two species complexes are recognized. The S. esakii complex includes S. esakii Lansbury &amp; Zettel, 1997 from Borneo, S. palawanensis Lansbury &amp; Zettel, 1997 from Palawan (Philippines), and some other undescribed Bornean species. It can be distinguished by wide tergites of the apterous female that are completely visible in dorsal view as the laterotergites are directed laterad or laterodorsad, by tufts of hairs on sternite 2 of the female, and by a slender distal section of the parameres of the males (see Lansbury &amp; Zettel, 1997). The second complex, the S. aberrans complex, contains S. aberrans Lansbury &amp; Zettel, 1997 from Borneo, S. setosa Zettel &amp; Tran, 2005 from Vietnam, S. narusei, and several other undescribed species from Borneo and southeast Asia. Species of this complex can be recognized by the laterotergites of the apterous female which are flapped over the tergites to a varying degree (at least slightly on segments 6 or 7), by a row of long setae on the sternites of the female (situated parallel with and beneath the connexival margin), by the absence of hair tufts on the female’s sternite 2, and by the subapically slightly widened paramere of the male (male of S. aberrans unknown). Additionally, the species have a similar colour pattern (but some variation in the extent of the yellow base of the metafemur) and agree in the general structures of meso-metanotum and abdomen. For comparison, the authors used the type series of S. setosa and the holotype (female) of S. aberrans. Beside the specimens from Langkawi, only two specimens from Terengganu match the diagnostic characters of S. narusei and were included in the type series. Numerous specimens were studied from other parts of peninsular Malaysia (Johore), from Singapore, from the Indonesian islands of Batam and Bintan, and from Sarawak on Borneo (all in ZRC), but it was concluded that they either belong to additional undescribed species or that at least the differences are too big to include them in the type series of S. narusei without a more detailed revision of the whole complex. Strongylovelia narusei differs from S. aberrans and S. setosa (and from most other material studied, except one population from Johore which is eventually conspecific with S. narusei) in a rather conspicuous long pilosity on laterotergites 5 and 6 of the apterous female, and from S. setosa in the more slender apex of the paramere of the male. The ratio of antennomeres 2 and 3 of females is 1.9–2.0 in S. aberrans, 1.7–1.8 in S. setosa and S. narusei. The posterior corners of the meso-metanotum of apterous females bear a dense group of long black setae in S. narusei, which is absent or inconspicuous in other species. An important characteristic to separate species of the S. aberrans complex might be the presence or absence of long setae on tergite 7 of apterous females, which either occur in small numbers on its lateral areas or in a more or less transverse row close to the tergite’s hind margin. Unfortunately, these setae tend to break off, so that in some cases either only their base is visible or they cannot be seen at all. Such setae could be observed on the lateral parts of tergite 7 of S. narusei and S. aberrans, but not in S. setosa. The apterous female of S. setosa differs also from both species in a deeper, more elongate depression of the tergite 8.</p> <p>Distribution. – Malaysia: Langkawi, Terengganu.</p></div> 	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03D587CD4720FFC022B3FD7961D2AA37	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Sides and venter mainly dark brown, connexival margins, segments 7 and 8, and genitalia yellow or light orange. Antennae brown, except base yellow. Legs yellow, but apices of femora and tibiae, and all tarsi brownish. Fore wings pale brown, base and two weakly delimited spots whitish.</p> <p>Pilosity: Generally short, except lateral hind margin of sternite 7 set with long setae.</p> <p>Dorsum without large black impressions. Head width ca. 1.2 times head length. Relative lengths of antennomeres 1–4 (holotype): 1.0: 1.0: 1.2: 2.5. Relative lengths of leg segments (relative to metatibia length = 100; holotype): profemur 66, protibia 54, protarsus 32, mesofemur 74, mesotibia 66, mesotarsus 11+28, metafemur 85, metatibia 100, metatarsus 12+30. Profemur slender. Protibia straight, distally widened, apically with long slender process set in blunt angle with tibia axis and bearing apically a minute grasping comb (Fig. 17). Mesotibia with short process bearing minute grasping comb (Fig. 18). Abdomen slender (Fig. 20). Sternite 6 without modifications. Sternite 7 anteromedially slightly swollen, posteriorly with strong, transverse impression, distinctly concave in lateral view (Fig. 19); hind margin medially slightly emarginated. Segment 8 and genital capsule small. Pygophore and proctiger slightly asymmetrical. Left paramere reduced. Right paramere (Fig. 21) elongate, curved, distally slender.</p> <p>Description of macropterous female. – Body length 1.37– 1.49 mm. Pronotal width 0.60–0.67 mm.</p> <p>Colour as in male, except sternite 7 ventrally brown; in some specimens, dorsum more infuscated.</p> <p>Pilosity: generally short, but laterotergites 2 with few longer setae, sternite 7 at connexival corner with tuft of long setae and laterotergites 8 and complete posterior edge of tergite 8 with dense brush of long setae.</p> <p>Legs simple. Abdomen slender, anteriorly without modifications. Tergite 8 forming a sharp edge, dorsal and posterior face forming a right angle; posterior face ca. 2.5 times as wide as long. Proctiger forming a prominent, ventrocaudad directed knob. Most of gonocoxa 1 concealed by sternite 7.</p> <p>Description of apterous male. – Body length 1.16–1.23 mm. Pronotal width 0.45–0.48 mm.</p> <p>Colour: Similar to macropterous morph. Head usually orange. Pronotum brown with broad orange margin anteriorly, posterior margin rarely with narrow yellow margin. Tergites and laterotergites variably brownly infuscated. Most commonly, laterotergites, tergite 7, segment 8, and medial areas of tergites 1–3 orange, tergites 4–5 brown, in other specimens tergites 3–6 to 1–6 brown and laterotergites 4–5 also browly infuscated. Tergites 1–3 (–4) more or less frosted.</p> <p>Pilosity as in macropterous morph.</p> <p>Legs, abdomen, and genitalia as in macropterous morph. Pronotum much smaller, but long compared with some other species of the genus, medianly ca. 0.8 times as long as head and almost completely covering metanotum, hind margin convex. Sides of abdomen anteriorly subparallel, laterotergites moderately raised throughout. Tergite 7 much larger than preceding tergites, ca. 0.8 times as long as wide and slightly longer than tergites 5 and 6 combined.</p> <p>Description of apterous female. – Body length 1.17–1.31 mm. Pronotal width 0.48–0.57 mm.</p> <p>Colour dorsally similar to that of apterous male, but in some specimens dark parts more pronounced and giving a more distinct pattern. Tergites (1–) 2–3 frosted, 4–8 not frosted. Venter and sides as in macropterous female.</p> <p>Pronotum as in apterous male. Abdomen (Figs. 22, 23) usually very narrow, with sides anteriorly constricted, narrowest at segment 3, slightly convex at segments 5-6 and then again narrowed at segment 7. In such specimens laterotergites almost vertical throughout. In specimens with more swollen abdomen (probably filled with eggs), laterotergites directed more laterad or even totally flat, giving the abdomen a broader appearance. Tergite 7 ca. 0.7 times as long as broad at anterior margin and ca. 1.5 times as long as tergite 6; its sides strongly convergent posteriad. Tergite 8 almost as long as tergite 7, slightly longer than wide, and shallowly concave. Terminalia as in macropterous morph.</p> <p>Etymology. – From Latin minutissimus; referring to the species’ extremely small size.</p> <p>Remarks. – The presence of a mesotibial comb of the male (Fig. 18) and the asymmetrical genitalia of the male with a long right (Fig. 21) and a reduced left paramere place M. minutissima in the subgenus Picaultia Distant, 1913. The new species is one of the smallest in the genus and has a slender body (Figs. 4, 5). Apterous specimens have the dorsum usually orange to light brownish with variably infuscated pronotum and abdomen. The male can be recognized by the concave outline of sternite 7 in lateral view (Fig. 19), by the small genital capsule (Fig. 20), and by the shape of the slender and curved right paramere (Fig. 21). The female can be easily distinguished from other Picaultia species by characteristics of the abdomen: The tergite 8 possesses a dense brush of equally long setae all along its posterior edge which are more than half as long as the tergite length (Fig. 22); in the apterous female, tergite 1 is usually completely frosted, tergites 2–3 discretely, but completely frosted and tergites 4–8 usually not frosted at all.</p> <p>Distribution. – Malaysia (Langkawi, Selangor) and Singapore.</p></div> 	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03D587CD472FFFC221A5FF4C60C9A437	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Air Tejun: 1 male (apterous), HZL10.</p> <p>Remarks. – Identification of the species of the Metrocoris nigrofasciatus group is difficult. Identity of M. squamifer specimens from Langkawi has been confirmed by comparison with Malaysian specimens in NHMW identified by Dr. Ping- ping Chen. Using the key characters in Chen &amp; Nieser (1993), male specimens might be identified as M. nigrofasciatus Distant, 1903 due to the fact that the subapical tooth on the fore femur is of variable shape and often reduced in small apterous and in all macropterous specimens. Distinction of these two species should be based on genitalia, especially on the shape of the paramere. The paramere of M. squamifer has a distinct ventral angle – although rarely so strongly pronounced as in the figure by Chen &amp; Nieser (1993) – but the parameres of M. nigrofasciatus and M. nigrofascioides are evenly rounded. Although sorting males of M. squamifer and M. nigrofascioides is easy by the absence or presence of a notch on the fore femur, females can be distinguished only by colour, M. squamifer being on average lighter than M. nigrofascioides. The key character for females of M. squamifer given in Chen &amp; Nieser (1993) is the colour pattern of tergite 8, but it could not conclusively separate the Langkawi specimens because apterous females from Langkawi have a black base of tergite 8. However, if tergite 8 is partly retracted into tergite 7, in some M. squamifer females a colour pattern appears which corresponds with the key character. Usually the yellow colour on tergite 8 is reduced to a small circular spot in M. nigrofascioides, but more extended in M. squamifer. For separation of females, authors used the extension of the mesopleural stripe (reaching further posteriad in M. nigrofascioides than in M. squamifer), and the result agreed well with the identification of males from the same samples. Macropterous females are generally lighter than apterous females of the same species, and this morph of M. nigrofascioides was assigned to the males from the same sample.</p> <p>Distribution. – Southern Thailand, West Malaysia, Sumatra, and Java (Chen &amp; Nieser, 1993).</p></div> 	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03D587CD472BFFC621D0FCD36293ACF7	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
