We herein designate it as the lectotype( Fig. 38A). Thereare three other specimens in NHML from the collection of G. Lewiswithout a detailed locality label that may belong to the type series as well.   FIGURE 39.

Scale bars = 0.5 mm.    Crossoglossa piceolaChaudoir: This species was originally described from two specimensfrom "Amour", perfectly in accord with our examined two syntypesin MNHN. We herein designate the male as lectotype( Fig. 38B). This species was synonymized with  P. tripunctataby Lafer (1989). After examining the types of both species, we found that they are only subtly different in the apical lamella of male genitalia (slightly narrower in  P. tripunctata), and the synonymy is confirmed.   Non-type material examined.   Japan:1 ex (MNHN), " Kumanotaira, pr. Karuizawa,  12 Aout 1907; Nippon Moyen“. 1 ex (MNHN), " Japon: Mt., IBUKT, pres, Gifu,  6-6-1910, Edme Gallois". 1 ex (MNHN), " Japon: Yumo-, to pres Nikko,  23 Aout 1911, Edme Gallois". 1 ex (MNHN), " Nasu,  Jun 12 1949, T.

This species is easily distinguished from all other species of subgenus  Bothynopteraby the small size and dorsum dark reddish brown without elytral pattern. It is similar to the smallest individuals of  P. tesari, but differs from the latter in the much shorter tempora.   Description. Body length 6.4–7.4 mm. Dorsum reddish brown to dark brown, elytra and pronotum usually much darker than head, elytra without contrasting patch; legs, antennae, and mouthparts yellowish brown. Labrum quadrate, apex straight. Pronotum nearly cordate, PW/PL = 1.22–1.35, slightly wider than head in most specimens, PW/HW = 0.98–1.12, lateral explanations narrow; widest at anterior third, well rounded at anterior half, and then clearly sinuate before posterior angles; posterior angles nearly rectangular with rounded apex. Elytra slightly dilated to apex, surface with or without isodiametric microsculpture; striae shallowly incised, with fine puncture rows; intervals with sparse punctures. Males with biseriate adhesive setae on apical two-thirds of mesotarsomeres 2 and 3. Median lobe of aedeagus very stout, in dorsal view apex distinctly bent to right; in lateral view ventral margin more or less expanded before middle; apical lamella thick and short, LL much smaller than LW, apex rounded-truncate; in lateral view apical lamella very weakly bent dorsally. Endophallus with squamate sac well divided. Gonocoxite II of ovipositor nearly quadrate, slightly shorter than basal width, apex concave near middle, with five or six ensiform setae, nearly evenly arranged.   Distribution( Map 8, red). China( Liaoning, Hebei, Beijing, Shanxi, Shaanxi, Henan, Anhui, Zhejiang, Fujian, Yunnan), Russia(Primorye, Sakhalin), Japan, South Korea.  Geographical variation. Most specimens from Japanhave distinct isodiametric microsculpture on elytra, but those from Chinahave no elytral microsculpture. 4115871327 1907-08-12 2007-05-09 1907-08-12 Japan Kumanotaira 239 35.635086 Nippon Moyen 1 139.25233 Karuizawa 68 69 1 Gifu 4115871462 [490,1342,367,393] 1907-08-12 2007-05-09 1907-08-12 Japan Kumanotaira 239 35.635086 Nippon Moyen 1 139.25233 Karuizawa 68 69 1 Gifu 4115871412 1907-08-12 2007-05-09 1907-08-12 T.
