Description: Habitus and coloring ( Fig. 3 View Figures 1–7 ) similar to Scopaeus javanus ( Figs 1, 2 View Figures 1–7 ) and S. riedeli ( Fig. 4 View Figures 1–7 ), different as follows: Brachypterous form, possibly dominant according to type specimens, with or without palisade fringe at posterior margin of abdominal tergite VII; only one specimen from Lombok macropterous with fully developed metathoracic wings. Unicolorous orange-brown specimens unknown. Total body length 3.0 – 3.3 mm; forebody length 1.6 – 1.7 mm.
Male: Abdominal sternites VII and VIII ( Fig. 120 View Figures 119–133 ) as in S. javanus ( Fig. 119 View Figures 119–133 ) and S. riedeli ( Fig. 121 View Figures 119–133 ). Aedeagus ( Figs 28 View Figures 27–34 , 53 – 55 View Figures 50–55 ) about 0.8 mm long, similar to that of S. javanus ( Figs 27 View Figures 27–34 , 50 – 52 View Figures 50–55 ) and S. riedeli (29, 56 – 58), but different as follows: Apical lobes with strong, ventroapical emargination ( Fig. 28 View Figures 27–34 , Fig. 53 View Figures 50–55 : arrow III); in ventral and dorsal view, apical lobes more slender, more parallel towards each other, less curved apicomediad and with subtruncate ends ( Fig. 54 View Figures 50–55 : arrow V, Fig. 55 View Figures 50–55 ); dorsal lobe, in lateral view, with narrow apex ( Fig. 28 View Figures 27–34 , Fig. 53 View Figures 50–55 : arrow IV).
Female: Sperm pump as in Fig. 147 View Figures 146–154 ; bursa membranous.
Distribution: Scopaeus batukaruensis is distributed in the Lesser Sunda Islands Bali and Lombok.
Etymology: With the epithet batukaruensis (adjective, Latin, composed of the geographic name Batukaru and the suffix – ensis, which indicates the geographical origin) reference is made to Mount Batukaru in Bali, where most of the type specimens were collected.
