Diagnosis. Ctenocolum milelo Albuquerque & Ribeiro-Costa sp. nov. differs from C. triangulatus Albuquerque & Ribeiro-Costa sp. nov. by ocular index 4.9-7.0 and pygidium oval in male and triangular in females; is different from C. martiale by elytral striae 3 and 4 with less conspicuous teeth at base. This species is different from all other species by having a squamous sphere-shaped sclerite in the internal sac of male genitalia ( Fig. 82 View FIGURES 79 – 84 ).
Description. BL: 2.2–3.0 mm; BW: 1.5–2.0 mm. Integument. Dorsum mostly black. Antenna brown and dark brown or first 3 antennomeres paler ( Figs. 13 View FIGURES 8 – 16 , 57 View FIGURES 53 – 60 ). Pygidium reddish brown and black or rufous and black ( Figs. 38 View FIGURES 35 – 43 , 49 View FIGURES 47 – 52 ). Ventral region reddish brown and black. Front and middle femur and tibia brown; hind femur reddish brown and black.
Pubescence. Pronotum brown, black and white; sparse pubescence exposing the integument forming an oval, wide area from anterior to posterior region, divided or not by transversal and longitudinal strip of denser setae and on each lateral region one small area ( Fig. 13 View FIGURES 8 – 16 ). Elytra strongly variegated with brown, black and white setae; interstria 3 with short dense strip of white setae at base and at submedian region dense or sparse ( Fig. 13 View FIGURES 8 – 16 ). Pygidium brown and white; in females, dense white setae forming two lateral stripes and one apical spot less dense ( Fig. 49 View FIGURES 47 – 52 ), sparse setae forming two small submedian and one median large areas; in males, sparse setae forming four lateral small areas ( Fig. 38 View FIGURES 35 – 43 ). Ventral region brown, pale brown and white ( Fig. 57 View FIGURES 53 – 60 ).
Head. Ocular sinus 0.2–0.3 mm; ocular index 4.9–7.0; length of eyes in frontal view behind sinus 0.07–0.09 ( Fig. 26 View FIGURES 22 – 30 ). Antenna serrate from antennomere 4-10. Frons with frontal carina ( Fig. 26 View FIGURES 22 – 30 ).
Prothorax. Pronotum with median gibbosity slightly elevated, not divided by longitudinal and transversal sulcus ( Fig. 57 View FIGURES 53 – 60 ); lateral gibbosity slightly elevated; basal lobe with or without depression and slightly emarginated ( Fig. 13 View FIGURES 8 – 16 ).
Mesothorax and metathorax. Elytra, striae with punctures moderately impressed; less conspicuous teeth at base of striae 3 and 4; tooth of stria 4 closer to base of tooth of stria 3 than to anterior margin of elytra; stria 6 conspicuously impressed. Hind femur ( Fig. 70 View FIGURES 66 – 71 ) on external ventral margin with toothed carina; without denticles above of external ventral margin; pecten with 7–9 teeth. Hind tibia ( Fig. 70 View FIGURES 66 – 71 ) strongly emarginated beside mucro; lateral coronal denticles present.
Abdomen. Pygidium longer than wide, oval in males ( Fig. 38 View FIGURES 35 – 43 ), subtriangular in females ( Fig. 49 View FIGURES 47 – 52 ), at median basal region with moderately impressed punctures.
Male genitalia. Median lobe, ventral valve as long as wide, lateral margin concave on subapical region ( Fig. 82 View FIGURES 79 – 84 ), basal margin strongly emarginated. Internal sac, lateral apex with short tuft of setae, hinge sclerite pleated, long, extending to median region; subapical region with homogeneously distributed spicules; median region with agglomerate of spicules; submedian region with few sparse spines and squamous sphere-shape sclerite ( Fig. 82 View FIGURES 79 – 84 ); basal region without or with few sparse spines. Tegmen ( Fig. 94 View FIGURES 91 – 99 ), lateral lobes separated by emargination about 0.7 times the length of lateral lobes; internal margin near end of emargination straight, forming a “V”; expanded at apex, about 2.5 times the smallest width on median region; without membranous projection at apex.
Etymology. The specific name “ milelo ” is an anagram of surname from researcher Julianne Milléo.
Distribution. Neotropical region: Bolivia (Santa Cruz), Brazil (São Paulo).
Host plants. Papilionoideae : Lonchocarpus guillemineanus (Tul.) Malme and L. muehlbergianus Hassl.
Note. The species mentioned as C. podagricus by Rodrigues et al. (2012) belongs to C. milelo Albuquerque & Ribeiro-Costa sp. nov. In their paper, Rodrigues et al. (2012) developed an ecological study, in which they collected 16 species belonging to four families. A total of 1,037 bruchines belonging to five species emerged from fruits. Of these, one individual was Ctenocolum milelo Albuquerque & Ribeiro-Costa sp. nov., which emerged from Lonchocarpus muehlbergianus .
