The alternative spelling with one n used by several workers is incorrect. The name should properly be spelled with two n ’s, as established by Bates (1878: 335).</p><p>Characters. For the adult specimens of  the chennelli group a standard description protocol was followed (Figure 1): body length, excluding labrum (4.8 mm- 11.2 mm); general ground color shining black or greenish black or violet black, pronotum and parts of head in some species reddish. Mandibles yellowish, brownish distally in females, teeth brownish marginally. Labrum mostly as wide as long, yellowish, with dark margin or blackish, lacking basal tooth, with five to seven apical teeth and one lateral tooth. Labial and maxillary palpi completely yellowish or darker distally. Antennae long, medium size or short, slender or lanceolate, distal two antennomeres of male enlarged in some species, scape with a single apical bristle, antennomeres 2 to 5 glabrous, antennomeres 6 to 11 finely and evenly pubescent; scape yellowish above, black on underside, all the other antennomeres brownish or blackish. Clypeus glabrous. Frons smooth with two shallow bumps or a furrow in the posterior part of the orbital plates. Eyes large, prominent. Pronotum glabrous and rounded, generally as wide as long, constricted in front and at back, transverse furrows strong, middle line and lateral lines nearly obsolete, middle line often with several transverse short branches. Scutellum triangular and obvious. Flight wings always present. Elytra with basal and apical hump. distinctly punctate in frons, shallower or absent in the apical part. Elytral apex with or without rounded or angular lateral corner and with angular sutural corner or sutural tooth, recurved or straight between them. Maculations bright and variable in size and shape. including a short, long or broken humeral lunule, a basal dot, that is sometimes absent, a central dot of characteristic shape (e. g. subsquare, fascia like, acutely angled inwards toward the suture, acutely angled outwards toward the front), and an apical dot that may be absent or with an apex that is transparent brownish or yellowish. A central band, if present, is not oriented outward at its anterior end. All or some maculae may connect with others. Mesoepisterna with or without grooves and pits. Elytral epipleura distinct. Ventral body brownish or black, ventrites dark, sometimes brownish marginally. Legs yellowish, femora, tibiae and tarsomeres sometimes darker distally. Legs of females darker as a whole in some species, Metatibiae of females bicolored in some species. Femora nearly glabrous; tibiae sparsely setose, tarsi somewhat more thickly setose; tarsomeres 1 to 4 of males are slightly widened and thickly setose. Length of the aedeagus 1.3 to 2.3 mm, shape straight or curved, with various distinct shaped points distally. Larval forms of  the chennelli group are undescribed.</p><p>Natural History. Knowledge about the natural history of these species is limited, however, it appears that most, if not all, of these species are found exclusively within the forest in shady and moist areas (Naviaux and Pinratana 2004: 62). Adults occur primarily on leaves of undergrowth shrubs, much like species of  Collyris, watching for their prey. They are extremely shy and their flight is powerful. Sometimes, after flying away, they return to land on the same leaf.</p><p>Key to the  Therates species groups (based on Wiesner 1988).</p><p>1.

The specimens studied were also analyzed using numerical cladistics (Camin and Sokal 1965). Figure 2 lists the characters used together with the matrix of OTU’s (operational taxonomic units). Figure 3 shows the provisional tree resulting from the cladistic analysis of the species. I tentatively use the order, in which the species appear in the tree, to arrange them within this paper.</p><p>List of the species of chennelli group</p><p>One species is known from Nepal, eight from India, seven from Myanmar, 11 from Thailand, three from Malaysia, 21 from Laos, 13 from Vietnam, and three from China. At the time of its description (Werner 1991: 230),  Therates hiermeieri was included in chennelli group, but later placed it close to the  Th. fleutiauxi Horn, 1898 by Sawada and Wiesner (2003: 50).  Th. hiermeieri, due to its basal tooth on the labrum, will key out in the identification key to  Therates groups as belonging to coeruleus group.</p><p>1.  montaneus Werner, 1992 China.</p><p>2.  moraveci Sawada and Wiesner, 1999 Laos.</p><p>3.  pseudorugifer pseudorugifer Sawada and Wiesner, 1999 Laos.</p><p>3a.  pseudorugifer pentalabiodentatus Matalin, 2001 China.</p><p>4.  baolocensis Wiesner, 1996, new rank Vietnam.</p><p>5.  apiceflavus Sawada and Wiesner, 1999 Laos.</p><p>6.  laotiensis Sawada and Wiesner, 1999 Laos.</p><p>7.  topali Mandl, 1972 Vietnam.</p><p>8.  bannokcolus Sawada and Wiesner, 1999 Laos.</p><p>9.  circumscriptus Moravec and Wiesner, 1999 Laos.</p><p>10.  probsti Wiesner, 1988 Laos, Vietnam.</p><p>11.  vietnamensis Wiesner, 1988 Vietnam.</p><p>12.  concinnus Gestro, 1888 Myanmar, Thailand, Laos, Vietnam. 13.  bannapecolus Sawada and Wiesner, 1999 Laos.</p><p>14.  major Probst and Wiesner, 1994 Thailand.</p><p>15.  annandalei Horn, 1908 India.</p><p>16.  nepalensis Probst and Wiesner, 1994 Nepal, India.</p><p>17.  gestroi Horn, 1900 Laos, Vietnam.</p><p>18.  dembickyi Sawada and Wiesner, 2002 Laos.</p><p>19.  kraatzi Horn, 1900 Thailand, Malaysia.</p><p>20.  similis Probst and Wiesner, 1994 Thailand.</p><p>21.  pearsoni new species Vietnam.</p><p>22.  myanmarensis Wiesner, 1999 Myanmar.</p><p>23.  confluens Wiesner, 1988 Malaysia, Vietnam.</p><p>24.  pacholatkoi Sawada and Wiesner, 2004 Laos.</p><p>25.  pseudoconfluens Sawada and Wiesner, 1999 Laos, China.</p><p>26.  pseudochenelli pseudochenelli Probst and Wiesner, 1994 Thailand, Malaysia.</p><p>26a.  pseudochenelli rufus Probst and Wiesner, 1994 Thailand.</p><p>27.  safraneki new species Laos.</p><p>28.  nagaii Sawada and Wiesner, 2000 Myanmar.</p><p>29.  schuelei new species Vietnam.</p><p>30.  rugifer Horn, 1902 Vietnam.</p><p>31.  phongsalyensis Sawada and Wiesner, 2004 Laos.</p><p>32.  namthacolus Sawada and Wiesner, 1999 Laos.</p><p>33.  sigridgeissleri new species Laos.</p><p>34.  tonkinensis Horn, 1902 Vietnam.</p><p>35.  jendeki Sawada and Wiesner, 1997 India.</p><p>36.  csorbai Wiesner, 1999 Laos.</p><p>37.  apicenigrus Sawada and Wiesner, 1999 Laos.</p><p>38.  rihai Moravec and Wiesner, 2001 Thailand.</p><p>39.  chennelli Bates, 1878 Myanmar.</p><p>40.  pseudoprobsti Probst and Wiesner, 1994 Thailand.</p><p>41.  arunachalcolus Sawada and Wiesner, 2006 India.</p><p>42.  ingridae Sawada and Wiesner, 2006 India.</p><p>43.  nigromarginalis Probst and Wiesner, 1994 Myanmar, Thailand.</p><p>44.  murzini Wiesner, 1999 Myanmar.</p><p>45.  haucki Moravec and Wiesner, 2001 Thailand, Laos, Vietnam.</p><p>46.  sausai Sawada and Wiesner, 1997 India.</p><p>47.  miyamai Sawada and Wiesner, 2000 Myanmar.</p><p>48.  dohertyi Horn, 1905 India.</p><p>49.  ottomerkli Wiesner, 1999 Laos.</p><p>50.  clavicornis Horn, 1902 Vietnam.</p><p>51.  rogeri Probst and Wiesner, 1994 Thailand.</p><p>52.  khaoyaii new species Thailand.</p><p>53.  waagenorum Horn, 1900 India.</p><p>Key to the members of chennelli group</p><p>In cases of doubt, comparision of the aedeagus with the figures in this paper may be helpful.</p><p>1.

A male of  waagenorum from Myanmar, preserved in MSNG, bears the label “  Therates concinnus Gestro, 1888, teste R. Gestro, 1893” and was the specimen upon which Wiesner (1988:15, f. 61, 297, 394) erroneously based his concept of  Therates concinnus . After carefully studying the type of  Th. concinnus Gestro on loan from MSNG, I determined that  Therates differens, as described by Sawada and Wiesner (1999) is conspecific with  Th. concinnus, and thus place it into synonymy herein.</p><p>Diagnosis.

Labrum (male Fig. 304, female Fig. 305) barely wider than long or as wide as long, yellowish, with six apical teeth and one lateral tooth. Labial and maxillary palpi yellowish. Antennae extending posteriorally behind elytral shoulders in female, somewhat longer in the males, distal two segments in males flattened, scape with a single apical bristle, antennomeres 2 to 5 glabrous, antennomeres 6 to 11 finely and evenly pubescent; scape yellowish above, black on underside, all the other antennal segments brownish, distal four to six segments somewhat darker. Clypeus glabrous. Frons smooth. Thorax: Pronotum shining greenish black, barely longer than wide, slightly more constricted in front than at back, transverse furrows strong, middle line and lateral lines nearly obsolete. Elytra: Shining brownish black, with basal and apical humps, distinctly punctate behind basal humps, shallower in the reminder (Fig. 300). Elytral apex with roundish lateral corner and sutural tooth, recurved between. Maculation composed of a large brownish yellow humeral lunula extending from the marginal to the middle suture, leaving open only a small blackish dot at the lateral margin of the basal humps, connected with a yellow horizontal central dot with nearly right angled back margin, and a light yellow apex which reaches the apical humps (Figs. 301, 302). Ventral aspect: Venter black, ventrites yellowish marginally. Legs yellowish. Aedeagus: (Fig. 303) curved, with pin shaped and produced tip, total length 1.8 mm.</p><p>Distribution. Myanmar (Mandalay, Kayin, Tanintharyi).</p><p>Localities.   MYANMAR,  Karen Mts. (JWCG) ,   Karen Hills,  Upper Burma, 4000 ft. (MNHN) ,  Kayin, Karen Mts. (BMNH, SDEI),   Tanintharyi (Tenasserim],  Taungya, iv.1898 (BMNH) ,  Mandalay, Ruby Mines, 1904, 1600-2300 m (BMNH),   Mandalay,  Ruby Mines (SDEI)  .</p><p>Remarks.  Therates chennelli was described by Bates in 1878 based on probably one male from Naga Hills. Fleutiaux (1892: 134) noticed this species from the same place. The locality Karen Hills was added by Fowler (1912:297). While searching for the type material of  Th. chennelli I was unable to find any specimens from Naga Hills in either the British Museum of Natural History (Bates collection) or Muséum National d’Histoire Naturelle (Oberthur collection) collections. Only specimens from Karen Hills were found in these collections as was the case of the Senckenberg Deutsches Entomologisches Institut (Horn collection). Because these two localities are separated by more than one thousand kilometers, and the possibility of significant taxonomic differences between beetles from such widely separated localities is great, I cannot designate a neotype unless specimens from the Naga Hills become available for study. I thus follow herein the species description based on those beetles from Karen Hills. Records of this species from localities outside Myanmar (Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore - several authors) do not fit with this description, and place them in the species  Th. rogeri or  Th. pseudochenelli .</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03AE87DDFFA09C4837B6FF6CFB84F8CD	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Description of  Th. haucki was based on two females from Nan (Thailand). These specimens are consistent with females from Houaphan (Laos), a site from which males of this species were also collected. I therefore included the Houaphan specimens within the concept of  Th. haucki . In addition, the males from Houaphan were consistent with the species  Th. belokobylskiyi, which was described on the basis of two males from Hao Binh (Vietnam), thus  Th. belokobylskiyi is considered a synonymy of  Th. haucki .</p><p>Diagnosis. Distinguished by the combination of laterally brownish ventral segments and elytra with completely brownish or brownish yellow basal humps and light apical dot that extends forward medially.</p><p>Re-description. Size: Total length (without labrum) 6.3 mm-8.0 mm (mean= 7.2 mm, n=15). Head: Shining greenish black. Mandibles yellowish, brownish distally in females, teeth brownish marginally.

Antennae slender, extending posteriorally behind elytral shoulders in females, longer in males, scape with a single apical bristle, antennomeres 2 to 5 glabrous, antennomeres 6 to 11 finely and evenly pubescent; scape yellowish above, black on underside, all the other antennal segments brownish black. Clypeus glabrous. Frons smooth, with a transverse furrow in the posterior part of the orbital plates. Thorax: Pronotum shining greenish black, as long as wide, constricted in front and at back, transverse furrows strong, middle line and lateral lines nearly obsolete, middle line with several transverse short branches. Elytra: Shining brownish black, with basal and apical humps, distinctly punctate in front, shallower in the apical third (Fig. 344). Apex with rounded lateral corner and sutural corner, straight between. Maculation composed of a brownish yellow humeral lunule connected with a transverse central dot, brownish yellow basal dot, light yellow apical dot which extends forward medially, the remainder of the basal hump being darker brown, as are the elytra as a whole at the sutural margin (Figs. 345-347).
