Anthocomus (Anthocomus) testaceoterminalis Wittmer, 1995
Anthocomus testaceoterminalis Wittmer, 1995: 373 , 374, Figs. 260–263 ( China: Yunnan);
Anthocomus (incertae sedis) testaceoterminalis: Mayor 2007: 440 .
Remarks. This species is true Anthocomus Erichson of the nominative subgenus due to male special characters described, namely: antennae obtuse dentate, pronotum subquadrate and shagreened, the elytral apices impressed and possessing appendages. Head and pronotum with dark blue metallic luster, uniformly black elytra lacking metallic luster, and inner appendages in elytral impressions yellow are differential characters of the species. This is probably a high altitude species since the holotype was collected in mountains at an elevation of c. 2800 m a.s.l.
Distribution. The species is only known from the type locality, Jizu Mountains in Yunnan Province of China (25°58’N; 100°2l’E).
