Metriorrhynchus lobatus Bocak and Matsuda, 1997
Differential diagnosis. As M. thoracicus described above, but having the white segment A3, except slightly pigmented spiracles A3 and middle part of lateral processes of A3, slightly wider pronotum, and four tergal posterior processes at segment A6.
Measurements. BL 12.0–14.5 mm, PW 2.0–2.3 mm, PL 1.70–2.05 mm.
Remarks. Three species of Metriorrhynchus thoracicus group not distinguishable as adults occur in Sulawesi (Bocak and Matsuda, 1997). The larvae of M. lobatus were collected in the same trunk as M. thoracicus . The younger larvae from the same group (BL 10–12 mm) have much smaller terga and shorter tergal, pronotal and lateral processes. They were associated with this species because of the white segment A3.
Material examined. Ten larvae of different ages (length 6–17 mm), C. Sulawesi, Boe, 7 km of Pendolo , 750 m, 3.vii.1999 , L. and M. Bocak ( LMBC, ARWC, KMTC), one mature larva reared in laboratory in Olomouc, pupated on 11.iii.2000 , hatched on 20.iii.2000.
