Euconophron Reitter, 1909 View in CoL
Euconophron REITTER, 1909:226 View in CoL (original description as the subgenus of Euconnus View in CoL ); type species: Euconnus promptus Coquerel, 1860 View in CoL , designated by Franz in NEWTON & FRANZ 1998: 145.
Euconophron View in CoL : FRANZ 1957: 245 (characteristic of the subgenus, key to southwest Mediterrean species); VÍT 2005 (discussion of the status of the subgenus, morphology of the aedeagus).
Diagnosis. Euconophron can be recognized amongst the subgenera of Euconnus by the following combination of external characters: 1) temples long, temples and posterior part of vertex with dense, stiff, bristly setae; 2) humeri well-defined, basal width of elytra wider than basal width of pronotum; 3) pronotum widest in middle, more or less rounded, narrowed to anterior margin; 4) antebasal pronotal foveae present; 5) pronotum lacking basal carina; 6) antennal club four-segmented; 7) antennomeres VIII and IX in male simple, unmodified. The subgenus is well defined by the structure of the aedeagus ( VÍT 2005): 8) ventral lamina with apex deeply bifidous; 9) endophallus with well-developed pair of sclerotized structure; 10) parameres much shorter than median lobe, hardly reaching half of median lobe, furnished with two unequal apical setae; 11) basal capsule strongly sclerotized with small dorsal orifice.
