Aneflomorpha citrana Chemsak 1960: 49 . New synonym.

Diagnosis. Length 9–19 mm, pronotum averages 1.17 times longer than wide, elytra together average 3.71 times longer than wide ( Fig. 1d , 2h ). Integument dark testaceous, brunneous to piceous. Antennae moderately to strongly carinate ( Fig. 9c, o ). Spine of third antennomere about twice length of second antennomere and spine of fourth antennomere, projecting away from antennal plane by nearly 45 degrees, acute at apex ( Fig. 9c, o ). Pronotum with dense punctures partially obscured by recumbent setae, lacking impunctate, median callus ( Fig. 5d , 6q, r ). Elytral apices bidentate or weakly bispinose ( Fig. 8c, o, p ). Elytral pubescence white or off-white, mostly recumbent and recurved, with a few scattered long erect to suberect setae ( Fig. 7d, q, r ). Procoxal cavities closed or nearly closed by broadly expanded prosternal process ( Fig. 10d, q, r ). Protibia slender, gradually widening apically with the dorsal margin straight and non-carinate ( Fig. 11f, h ).

Discussion. This is the widest ranging (central Mexico to Colorado), most commonly collected, and most morphologically variable species of Aneflomorpha ( Linsley 1963; Heffern 1998; Bezark 2022). The pronounced spine on antennomere three that usually extends away from the antennal plane by 45 degrees, the pronounced antennal carina on the basal antennomeres, the closed or nearly closed procoxal cavities by the broadly expanded apex of the prosternal process, the protibiae not flattened and without a basal carina, and the uniform testaceous, brunneous, to piceous coloration with often gradually darker elytral apices and abdominal sternites aid to distinguish this widespread southwestern United States and northern Mexico distributed species.

Examination of the holotype of A. citrana ( Fig. 1d ) has not revealed any distinguishing characteristics that would exclude it from A. rectilinea , and therefore, I consider it a new synonym. Despite Linsley (1963) stating that A. citrana differs “in its smaller size and paler color”, the size range given is well within the size range given for A. rectilinea . Linsley further states that the color of A. citrana is variable, “ranging from brownish-testaceous to dark brown” which clearly places it within the color variation of A. rectilinea and somewhat contradicts the previous statement of it having a “paler color”. The records of larval development within non-native trees is most likely just a consequence of the highly polyphagous and opportunistic nature of the adults ovipositing on any suitably sized branch (see discussion of biology with wide range of hostplants below).

The rarely collected A. seminuda is similar, but differs by lacking basal antennal carinae ( Fig. 9p ); has the spine of the third antennomere only a little longer than the second antennomere and the spine of the fourth antennomere, and not projecting from the antennal plane by more than 35 degrees; has the pronotum as wide as long ( Fig. 6s ); has more uniform rufous coloration without darkening of elytral apices or abdominal sternites ( Fig. 2i , 16f ), and has less elongate and narrow proportions than the average A. rectilinea . Small specimens of A. rectilinea can resemble A. minuta and A. crypta , but the pronounced basal antennal carinae (less pronounced in A. minuta and A. crypta , Fig. 9d, k , respectively) and bidentate to bispinose elytral apices of A. rectilinea (truncate or very weakly bidentate in A. crypta and A. minuta , Fig. 8d, k , respectively), will distinguish it from them. Most specimens of A. rectilinea have the pronotal punctures partially obscured by relatively thick, white appressed pubescence unlike A. crypta and A. minuta which have them mostly unobscured by setae. A further character that distinguishes A. rectilinea from A. crypta is the anterior collar of the mesosternum which is divided in A. rectilinea ( Fig. 12e ) and undivided in A. crypta ( Fig. 12b ), however this character usually requires partial disarticulation.

From A. yumae it is distinguished by having the protibia not carinate at the base and gradually widening toward the apex ( Fig. 11a, h ) and having recurved, recumbent setae that are less dense than in A. yumae . In A. yumae , the protibia is flattened and bulging at the base, carinate dorsally, and slightly narrowing medially or straight to apex ( Fig. 11j ) and the setae are denser, whiter, and more appressed ( Fig. 7x ).

Distribution and biology. This is the most widespread and most polyphagous species of Aneflomorpha ( Linsley 1963; Heffern et al. 2018; Bezark 2022). The species is known from west Texas through New Mexico, Arizona, and northern Mexico, most commonly at elevations below 1700 meters (pers. obs., Linsley 1963). Specimens can be abundant at lights after the monsoon rains begin in this area. Documented larval hosts include many species of Quercus , Rhus virens , Mimosa dysocarpa (J. Vlasak, pers. comm.), as well as all the hosts documented for specimens previously called A. citrana including Citrus , Prunus , Morus , Ficus , Euonymus , Gossypium thurberi , ( Linsley 1963; D. Heffern, J. Vlasak, pers. comm.). Specimens have been collected from Baccharis sarothroides A. Gray (pers. obs.). The new synonym, A. citrana , was described by Chemsak (1960) from specimens that were collected by P. D. Gerhardt in August from orange trees in Tempe, Arizona. Upon examination of dead and dying branches of approximately 0.25 inches diameter, larvae of this species were discovered internally girdling them ( Gerhardt 1961). Gerhardt speculated that other native trees must serve as the natural larval host for A. citrana since Citrus trees are not native to the United States. Specimens identified as A. citrana by J. Vlasak were reared from Indigofera sphaerocarpa A. Gray (Fabaceae) and Rhus aromatica Aiton (Anacardiaceae) ( Heffern et al. 2018).
