Diagnosis.

Manocoreus can be distinguished from other genera of Coreinae by the following combined characters: body elongate (Figs 1 View Figure 1 - 3 View Figure 3 , 7 View Figure 7 - 8 View Figure 8 ); head wide, extending beyond antenniferous tubercles (Figs 12 View Figure 12 , 13 View Figure 13 ); anteclypeus slender, slightly longer than mandibular plate (Figs 12 View Figure 12 , 13 View Figure 13 ); head with small dentate or plate-like process in front of antenniferous tubercles (Figs 4A, B View Figure 4 , 9A, B View Figure 9 : hp); anterior portion of buccula right angled; eye not reaching anterior margin of pronotum (Figs 12 View Figure 12 , 13 View Figure 13 ); profemora unarmed; vein Cu of hind wing away from base of hamus; meso- and metasternum with a mid-longitudinal groove; dorsum of tibiae sulcate, base of each tibiae slightly protuberant; metatarsal segment I longer than the sum of segments II and III; spiracles of abdomen situated before middle of sternites, near lateral margin (Figs 14 View Figure 14 , 15 View Figure 15 ); sternum VII of female with middle longitudinal cleft, plica triangular, or rectangular depressed, covered by sternum VI (Figs 6C View Figure 6 , 11B View Figure 11 , 15 View Figure 15 ); posterior margin of genital capsule broadly sinuate, with median ventroposterior process (Figs 4E, F View Figure 4 , 5D View Figure 5 , 9E, F View Figure 9 , 10D View Figure 10 , 14 View Figure 14 ).

Redescription.

Body medium to relatively large (11-17 mm), elongate, nearly parallel-sided, ~ 3.2-4.3 × as long as humeral width (Figs 12 View Figure 12 , 13 View Figure 13 ). Body surface and vestiture. Body surface rather dull; head, thorax, abdomen, with dense punctures; antennae, legs with short, semierect to erect setae, and dense small tubercles; abdomen with short and dense setae.

Head porrect, wider than long, shorter than pronotum, nearly pentagonal, dorsally flat, apex distinctly produced and surpassing antenniferous tubercles; anteclypeus slender, slightly surpassing mandibular plate (Figs 12 View Figure 12 , 13 View Figure 13 ); antenniferous tubercles almost circular, not prominent; genae with small dentate or plate-like process in front of antenniferous tubercles (Figs 4A, B View Figure 4 , 9A, B View Figure 9 ); anterior of buccula nearly right angled; eyes globular, not reaching anterior margin of pronotum (Figs 12 View Figure 12 , 13 View Figure 13 ); ocelli not close to each other, relatively close to eyes, dorsally situated before connecting line of posterior edge of eyes (Figs 12 View Figure 12 , 13 View Figure 13 ); preocellar pit deep, transverse; ocellar tubercles barely raised (Figs 12 View Figure 12 , 13 View Figure 13 ); antenna four-segmented, antennomere I thickest, apex of antennomere I far from apex of head, with a glabrous and narrow base; antennomeres I-III subcylindrical, subequal in length, antennomere IV fusiform, shortest; labium four-segmented, surpassing posterior margin of mesosternum but not surpassing posterior margin of metasternum (Figs 1B, D View Figure 1 , 2B View Figure 2 , 3B, D View Figure 3 , 7B, E View Figure 7 , 8B, E View Figure 8 ); labial segment I not extending beyond base of head ( M. vulgaris ), or reaching anterior margin of prosternum (other species). Thorax. Pronotum wider than long, hexagonal, gradually declivent, anterior margin with narrow, indistinct, depressed anterior collar (Figs 12 View Figure 12 , 13 View Figure 13 ); cicatrices distinct, somewhat depressed; anterolateral margin concave to nearly straight, nodulose; humeral angle rectangular or tapering into stout or acute spine pointing outward (Figs 12 View Figure 12 , 13 View Figure 13 ); posterolateral angle broadly angulate, posterolateral margin sinuate; posterior margin nearly straight or slight concave; pronotal disk with distinct or indistinct longitudinal medial carinae (Figs 12 View Figure 12 , 13 View Figure 13 ). Scutellum longer than wide, triangular, apically subacute. Prosternum small, area before mesocoxae of mesosternum large, mesosternum and metasternum with longitudinal median groove; metathoracic scent gland ostiole provided with a bilobate peritreme, evaporatorium extending ~ 1/2 of mesopleuron (Figs 4C, D View Figure 4 , 9C, D View Figure 9 ). Legs unarmed; femora thickened; dorsal surface of tibiae each with a wide longitudinal furrow. Hemelytra macropterous, not reaching or slightly surpassing apex of abdomen (1A, C, 2A, 3A, C, 7A, D, 8A, D); costal margin emarginated, nearly straight, R and M branch from ca. middle of corium, membrane with ~ 10 longitudinal veins; hamus of hind wing very short. Pregenital abdomen. Connexival segments distinctly raised above tergum, posterolateral angles sometimes acute; sterna without impression or furrow ventrally; spiracles circular, small, close to lateral margin, situated before middle of sterna; spiracle II not visible. Posterior margin of female abdominal tergum VII sinuate, concave in middle, sternum VII of female with middle longitudinal cleft, plica triangular, indistinct, covered by sternum VI (Fig. 14 View Figure 14 ). External male genitalia. Genital capsule near prolate spheroidal, opening dorsally (Figs 4E, F View Figure 4 , 5D View Figure 5 , 9E, F View Figure 9 , 10D View Figure 10 ), ventral outline distally concave in lateral view, posterior margin of genital capsule broadly sinuate with median ventroposterior process (Fig. 14 View Figure 14 ); dorsal margin of base of paramere nearly straight, distal portion of paramere sickle-shaped (Figs 5E-G View Figure 5 , 10E-G View Figure 10 ); phallus with a sclerotized articulatory apparatus, phallotheca barrel-shaped, unarmed, conjunctiva rigid and complex, aedeagus coiled, strongly sclerotized (Figs 5A-C View Figure 5 , 10A-C View Figure 10 ).
