(Fig. 2B)

Trachyphloeus notulatus Boheman in Schoenherr, 1842: 109 (original description). Trachyphloeus notulatus: Seidlitz, 1868: 98 (monograph of Otiorhynchinae); Lona, 1937: 326 (catalogue); Borovec & Meregalli, 2013: 501 (note).

Type locality. Cap. Bonae Spei [ Cape of Good Hope, South Africa; probably the Cape Peninsula].

Material examined. Lectotype (here designated): 1 spec. (NHRS, Schoenherr’s coll.), ‘ Typus [red label, p] / Tr. notulatus Chevr. C. b. Sp. Chevr. [hw] / LECTOTYPUS Trachyphloeus notulatus Boheman, R. Borovec & J. Skuhrovec des. 2017 [red label, p] / Glyptosomus notulatus (Boheman, 1842), comb. n., R. Borovec & J. Skuhrovec det. 2017 [p] (Fig. 2B).

Remarks. Boheman (1842) gave the origin of this species as “Cap. Bonae Spei. A Dom. Chevrolat communicatus. Mus. Schh.”. The lectotype is 2.88 mm long and well preserved, with only the right antennal funicle with club missing. It has the rostrum separated from the head by a sharp, V-shaped sulcus, the metatibiae with slender squamose corbels and the tarsal claws connate in the basal half. Based on these characters is it also placed in the tribe Embrithini where it is provisionally assigned to Glyptosomus, although it differs from the other three Glyptosomus species in its epifrons being narrower at the base than the space between the eyes and in lacking posthumeral calli. It is highly probable that it belongs together with some other species currently placed in Lalagetes . This will be addressed in a future revision of Glyptosomus . Glyptosomus now includes four described and 17 undescribed species.
