Microphylacinus gen.nov.
Type species. Microphylacinus verendus sp. nov.; gender masculine.
Etymology. The genus name is derived from Greek prefix Micro and refers to the body size of Microphylacinus verendus .
Diagnosis. The genus is most closely related to Phylacinus due to the structure of aedeagal tegmen ( Fig. 1–3 View FIGURES 1 – 10. 1 – 3. M ) and by the appearance of at least one row of punctures on pseudopleuron.
Microphylacinus is similar to the Phylacinus, Zadenos LAPORTE, 1840 and Loensus LUCAS, 1920 in the structure of the tarsi (preapical tarsomere reduced, fig. 11).
Microphylacinus differs from Phylacinus by following characters: tegmen of aedeagus is fully divided in to two parts by the lateral gap ( Fig. 1–3 View FIGURES 1 – 10. 1 – 3. M ), fronto-clypeal suture forms a distinct sulcus ( Fig. 20 View FIGURES 20 – 34 ) and by small body size (3.8–4.6 mm).
Description. See description for Microphylacinus verendus sp. nov. Distribution. The North coast of Madagascar ( Fig. 47 View FIGURE 47 ).
