Types examined: Syntype: Cotypus / Tentyria ophiusae nov. sp. Codina / Formentera, S. Franc. Javier, Malaquer leg. / Zool. Staatsslg. München / ophiusae Cod. ( Fig. 224 View FIGURES 222–227 ).
Additional material: Formentera, La Sabina , 26.X.1948, X. Palau leg., F. Español det. (2♁ CJF and 1♁ CJLB); Ibiza, Figueroa, 16.IV.1962, F. Español leg. ( MCNB) ; Formentera , Mitjorrn, 8.VIII,1962, Balcells leg. ( MCNB) ; Ilot Caragolé , Freus, 1.VIII.1962, idem ( MCNB) ; Espalmador , 10.VIII.1962, idem ( MCNB) ; Espalmador, 4-1921 ( MNCN) .
Diagnosis: Species well characterised by the following features: graceful and bright body, with very fine and hardly noticeable punctures ( Fig. 188 View FIGURES 186–191 ). Head with large and convex eyes ( Fig. 3 View FIGURES 1–35 ); gular groove consisting in a shallow central depression ( Fig. 38 View FIGURES 36–69 ). Sides of pronotum more narrowed in the base than in the apex; margin of the base entire and thick, and the middle lobe barely indented, rather truncated or even rounded ( Fig. 72 View FIGURES 70–87 ); prosternal apophysis with parallel sides and rounded end ( Fig. 108 View FIGURES 106–140 ); elytra smooth or with vestigial stria, very oblong but sharpened towards the extreme, and barely narrowed towards the humeri which are angled and fallen, broad base, curved around the scutellum but straight to the humeri ( Fig. 143 View FIGURES 141–153 ); anal sternite truncate at the apex ( Fig. 149 View FIGURES 141–153 ); aedeagus fusiform, about 3.25 mm in length, with the parameres almost as long as the phallobase ( Fig. 156 View FIGURES 154–171 ).
Comments: T. ophiusae Codina was described as subspecies of T. mucronata Steven ; however, according with Español (1940, 1951), it should be considered different species mainly by the configuration of the aedeagus.
Geographical distribution: Endemism from the coastal sands of the Balearic Pitiusas (Ibiza and Formentera) ( Español 1960; Pons & Palmer 1996).
Group of T. subcostata
