Differential diagnosis. Apterodela lobipennis is readily distinguished from A. bivirgulata by the well-developed, especially in males, subapical sinuate notch, the narrow white elytral pattern ( Figs 193–198 View FIGURES 193–212 vs. Figs 155–162 View FIGURES 153–172 and Figs 173–179 View FIGURES 173–192 ; Figs 203–210 View FIGURES 193–212 vs. Figs 165–172 View FIGURES 153–172 and Figs 183–189 View FIGURES 173–192 ), by the flatter body ( Fig. 172 View FIGURES 153–172 ), by the shape of aedeagus ( Figs 220, 221 View FIGURES 213–226 vs. Figs 214–219 View FIGURES 213–226 ; Fig. 232 View FIGURES 227–236 vs. Figs 228–231 View FIGURES 227–236 ) and by the internal sack especially by small BLR ( Figs 240 View FIGURES 237–243 , 254 View FIGURES 251–257 , 261 View FIGURES 258–264 vs. Figs 238 View FIGURES 237–243 , 252 View FIGURES 251–257 , 259 View FIGURES 258–264 ). Apterodela lobipennis is best distinguished from A. kazantsevi and A. latissima sp. nov. by the narrower elytra, the shallower subapical notch ( Figs 193–198 View FIGURES 193–212 vs. Figs 199–201 View FIGURES 193–212 ; Figs 203–210 View FIGURES 193–212 vs. Fig. 211 View FIGURES 193–212 ), and by the shape of aedeagus ( Figs 220, 221 View FIGURES 213–226 vs. Figs 222, 223 View FIGURES 213–226 ; Fig. 232 View FIGURES 227–236 vs. Fig. 233 View FIGURES 227–236 ), and additionally from A. kazantsevi by the wider pronotum ( Figs 124–127 View FIGURES 123–142 vs. Fig. 133 View FIGURES 123–142 ; Figs 129–132 View FIGURES 123–142 vs. Fig. 133 View FIGURES 123–142 ; Fig. 274 View FIGURES 273–278 ). From A. alopecomma sp. nov. A. lobipennis is distinguished by the shape of labrum ( Figs 85–87 View FIGURES 83–102 vs. Fig. 95 View FIGURES 83–102 ; Figs 90–92 View FIGURES 83–102 vs. Fig. 100 View FIGURES 83–102 ), by the shape of elytra, and white elytral pattern ( Figs 193–198 View FIGURES 193–212 vs. Fig. 202 View FIGURES 193–212 ; Figs 203–210 View FIGURES 193–212 vs. Fig. 212 View FIGURES 193–212 ) as well as by the shape of aedeagus ( Figs 220, 221 View FIGURES 213–226 vs. Fig. 224 View FIGURES 213–226 ; Fig. 232 View FIGURES 227–236 vs. Fig. 234 View FIGURES 227–236 ).

Notes. Cicindela lobipennis was described from a single female from Kiu-Kiang ( Bates 1888). Thus, according to the Article 73.1.2 of ICZN (1999) this female is the holotype by monotypy. In the collection of BMNH one male with the label “Kiu-Kiang” is housed ( Figs 9, 10 View FIGURES 7–15 ). However, the handwriting on this label is not of Bates because the “ i ” is dashed, but not dotted as on the labels of Bates (see Horn et al. 1990; Moravec 2015). In addition, the sex of the museum’s specimen is not the same as in the holotype, and the shape of its elytra does not correspond to the original description “ … elytris elongato-ovatis, lateribusacute carinatis, epipleuris latis intus obliquatis paullo ante apicem terminatis, ibique margine subito depresso, apice ipso producto, quasi lobato … ” ( Bates 1888). Thus, this specimen cannot be regarded as the type of C. lobipennis . At the same time, in the collections of MNHN ( Figs 18 View FIGURES 16–24 , 205 View FIGURES 193–212 ), SDEI ( Figs 16, 17 View FIGURES 16–24 , 203 View FIGURES 193–212 ) and MFNB ( Fig. 204 View FIGURES 193–212 ) the females labelled as “Kiu-Kiang” are housed (see the sections “Type material” and “Additional material”). However, according to the style of the labels none of them is the type of C. lobipennis , but all of them closely correspond to the original description. Based on these details, we assume that the type of C. lobipennis is most likely lost. According to the Article 75 of ICZN (1999) among mentioned above specimens a female with the labels “Kiu-Kiang, Heyne”, “ lobipennis Bates ”, “coll. W. Horn, DEI Eberswalde”, “DEI Mūnchenberg, Col – 10868” ( Figs 16, 17 View FIGURES 16–24 ) from the collection of W. Horn (SDEI) is designated here as the neotype of C. lobipennis (see the sections “Type material”).
