Diagnosis: T. eulipoides Koch is a species very close T. bassii Solier , sharing the general body shape ( Fig. 202 View FIGURES 198–203 ), but differing in the greater average size; the punctures, finer and less dense; the head wider, and the eyes bigger and more convex ( Fig. 16 View FIGURES 1–35 ); less transverse and less well-defined gular groove ( Fig. 51 View FIGURES 36–69 ); the pronotum ( Fig. 84 View FIGURES 70–87 ) proportionally greater, with the base somewhat sinuous before le posterior angles; prosternal apophysis ( Fig. 121 View FIGURES 106–140 ) parallel-sided, with a central depression as a longitudinal groove, rounded apex, and slightly exceeding the procoxae; protibiae with clear sexual dimorphism ( Fig. 141 View FIGURES 141–153 ); male elytra generally more cylindrical oval and with barely indicated ribs or even smooth; female elytra wider and stubbier; the elytral apex spiny, formed by the convergence of the upper and lower margins of the epipleurae ( Fig. 146 View FIGURES 141–153 ). Aedeagus ( Fig. 169 View FIGURES 154–171 ) of larger median size and with the parameres narrower towards the apex.

Geographical distribution: Species present in the Guadalquivir River basin, described from the province of Sevilla (Alcalá de Guadaira, Gergel “Gelves” and Utrera), Granada and Málaga (Ronda). Español (1960) and Viñolas & Cartagena (2005) also cite this species in Córdoba and Ciudad Real. Also present in the province of Jaén. The record from Almeria, above mentioned, without collector’s label and that from Ciudad Real ( Viñolas & Cartagena, 2005) need of verification, because according with Ferrer & Bujalance (2008), the authors confused this taxon.
