Aneflomorpha paralinearis Lingafelter , new species

( Fig. 2e , 6p , 7p , 8m , 9m , 10p , 11g , 15c, f, g, i )

Diagnosis. Antennae carinate ( Fig. 9m ). Spine of third antennomere about 1.5 times longer than second antennomere and spine of fourth antennomere, projecting away from antennal plane by less than 45 degrees, acute at apex ( Fig. 9m ). Pronotum with dense punctures partially obscured by white, recumbent setae; often with small, irregular, impunctate, post-median callus ( Fig. 6p ). Elytral apices usually strongly bidentate or weakly bispinose ( Fig. 8m ). Elytral pubescence white, moderately dense, mostly recumbent and recurved, with scattered long erect to suberect setae ( Fig. 7p ). Procoxal cavities broadly open by one-half to nearly the width of slightly expanded prosternal process ( Fig. 10p ). Protibiae flattened and carinate at base ( Fig. 11g ).

Description. Length 9–16 mm. Integument rufous to brunneous ( Fig. 2e , 15f, g ). Head with moderately dense, short, recurved, recumbent, white setae, each mostly arising from a separate puncture; a few longer, erect setae present on vertex around upper eye lobe margin. Interantennal impression weak; antennal tubercles moderately acute and glabrous at apex. Gula with sparse punctures and moderate recumbent and erect setae. Antennae extending beyond elytral apices by about 2 antennomeres; last antennomere nearly 1.5 times length of penultimate with moderate constriction before apical third in male; shorter and less constricted in female. Antennomere four of both sexes slightly shorter than three and five. Antennomere three with acute apicomesal spine about 1.3 times length of antennomere two, projecting away from antennal plane by less than 45 degrees; smaller acute spine on antennomere four that is shorter or subequal to antennomere two; very short spine on antennomere five; dentiform on antennomere six. Antennomeres distinctly dorsomesally carinate on three through six, less pronounced on successive antennomeres. Antennomeres of subequal width sub-basally and apically; not produced apicolaterally. Antennae with dense, short, appressed translucent golden pubescence with longer, suberect setae ventromesally and apically on most antennomeres. Pronotum dark brunneous; distinctly longer than wide (average 1.10 times longer than wide); slightly wider at middle and evenly rounded at sides except for anterior and posterior constrictions; anterior and posterior ends of equal width; much narrower than base of elytra. Pronotum with sparse, short, recurved, recumbent, white setae mostly each arising from a separate puncture and scattered, longer, erect setae partially obscuring punctures; punctures dense, contiguous; somewhat irregular in size and shape, relatively larger and more closely spaced than those of elytral base; vague, small, shiny, postero-median impunctate callus usually present. Prosternum brunneous, rugose on anterior third, punctate and moderately pubescent on posterior two-thirds, including prosternal process. Prosternal intercoxal process narrow between procoxae; arcuately declivous and moderately expanded at apex. Procoxal cavities open by about half the width of the prosternal process apex or more. Mesosternum brunneous, finely, shallowly punctate and moderately pubescent with anterior collar indented but undivided at middle. Metasternum brunneous, shallowly punctate and moderately pubescent. Elytra dark rufous to brunneous, together average 3.33 times longer than wide ( Fig. 2e ); with moderately dense, mostly uniformly distributed, white, short, recurved, recumbent setae, each arising out of a separate, distinct, mostly non-contiguous puncture, and longer, erect white setae at base and along suture. Elytral apices usually strongly bidentate to weakly bispinose and concave between spines. Scutellum rounded posteriorly, with dense, appressed white setae. Legs with femora brunneous, of similar color to elytra and pronotum; tarsi slightly lighter in color; short with pro-, meso-, and metafemora progressively longer; metafemora not extending to apex of third ventrite. Femoral pubescence mostly short, sparse, white, recumbent to suberect, but not recurved. Tibiae with scattered, longer, erect setae in addition to shorter, semi-recumbent setae. Femoral apices rounded mesad and laterad, without spines. Meso- and metatibiae cylindrical; only slightly enlarged apically; weakly laterally carinate; not dorsally carinate. Protibiae laterally flattened, dorsoventrally thickened at base with dorsal carina, slightly narrowing at middle and expanded at apex. Abdomen brunneous; last ventrite broad and shallowly notched medially in males. Aedeagus with parameres evenly and symmetrically rounded at apex and median lobe more narrowly constricted at apex ( Fig. 15i ).

Etymology. The name paralinearis refers to the similarity and presumed sister-species relationship to Aneflomorpha linearis (LeConte) .

Discussion. This species is most similar to Aneflomorpha linearis (LeConte) with regard to the laterally flattened protibiae with dorsal carina at the base, open procoxal cavities, and carinate antennae. Aneflomorpha paralinearis are, on average, larger, rufous or brunneous ( Fig. 15g ) rather than testaceous ( Fig. 15d ), have the apex of the prosternal process apex more expanded, have more abundant erect setae on the elytra, and usually have more strongly bidentate to weakly bispinose elytral apices. In addition, there are differences in the aedeagi: A. linearis has the parameres asymmetrically narrowed apically and the median lobe more broadly rounded at the apex ( Fig. 15h ) while A. paralinearis has the parameres evenly and symmetrically rounded at the apex and the median lobe more narrowly constricted at the apex ( Fig. 15i ). Also, A. linearis has the anterior collar of the mesosternum nearly divided at the middle ( Fig. 15e ), while in A. paralinearis , it is not divided ( Fig. 15f ), but this character usually requires dissection and clearing to see well.

Aneflomorpha yumae (elevated from subspecies level herein) shares the feature of having the base of the protibiae flattened, carinate dorsally, and as thick at the base as the apex ( Fig. 11j ) but is distinguished by its lighter testaceous integument and relatively dense, thick, white, closely recumbent setae over much of the dorsal and ventral surface, and particularly dense on the scutellum, inner eye margins, metasternum, and basal sternites ( Fig. 3f , 16h ), much denser than in A. paralinearis . The dense punctures of the pronotum are more hidden in A. yumae ( Fig. 6x ) unlike A. paralinearis which has the pronotal punctures more exposed ( Fig. 6p ). One other species from Arizona, A. linsleyae , also has the protibia moderately flattened at the base, however, it is not carinate dorsally. Aneflomorpha linsleyae is easily distinguished by its elytral pubescence consisting of only erect and suberect setae ( Fig. 7j ), whereas the elytral setae in A. paralinearis are mostly recumbent ( Fig. 7p ). Specimens of A. paralinearis resemble A. rectilinea in size and coloration, but the narrow, unflattened, non-carinate protibial base of ( Fig. 11f, h ) and nearly closed procoxal cavities of A. rectilinea ( Fig. 10q, r ) will easily distinguish that species.

Distribution and biology. This species is present in most of the mountains of central to southeast Arizona and western New Mexico. Adults have been collected mostly at lights from late June through early August at elevations between 1400–2100 meters. Josef Vlasak (pers. comm.) has reared specimens from Cercocarpus Kunth and collected adults in Quercus rugosa Née.
