(Figs 1-4)</p> <p>Type material: Holotype ♂: TAIWAN Taipei Co. Yangmingshan Mts slopes E of Shamao S. Vít, 24.X.2007 400m, rotten bole (MHNG). Paratype ♂: TAIWAN Hsinchu Co. Jienshih Twnsh. env. 1800 m Km 48/Road no 60; 25.iii.2008 Hsingkuang trib. vill., leg. S. Vít Forest litter (MHNG).</p> <p>Description: Length 1.20-1.35 mm, width 0.65-0.73 mm, dorsoventral diameter 0.69-0.73 mm. Head, pronotum, elytra and ventral side of thorax dark brown to black, elytra lighter near apices. Abdomen dark brown, with apical segments ochraceous. Appendages ochraceous. Length/width ratios of antennomeres as: III 14/6: IV 20/6: V 27/6: VI 20/7: VII 27/8: VIII 13/9: IX 28/12: X 26/14: XI 38/12. Pronotum very finely punctate, not microsculptured. Tip of scutellum exposed. Elytra not iridescent, with parasutural striae, sutural striae deep, curved at base, discal punctation about as fine as pronotal punctation, microsculpture hardly visible. Hypomera not microsculptured, smooth, lacking longitudinal stria. Middle area of metaventrite hardly convex, entirely densely, distinctly punctate, with punctures to part about as large as puncture intervals; pubescence very short, median stria and median impression absent. Lateral parts of metaventrite very finely and sparsely punctate, not microsculptured. Submesocoxal areas about 0.03 mm, submesocoxal lines appearing impunctate. Metanepisterna about 0.02- 0.03 mm wide, flat, slightly narrowed posteriad, impunctate, with slightly concave suture reaching metepimera. Tibiae straight. Ventrite 1 not microsculptured, very finely punctate, basal punctures distinct, not elongate. Following sternites with strigulate microsculpture.</p> <p>Male characters: Protarsomeres 1 to 3 strongly widened, wide almost as apices of protibiae. Aedeagus (Figs 1-4) 0.40-0.46 mm long. Median lobe with narrow basal bulb, apical process asymmetrical, moderately inflexed, much shorter than basal bulb, concave ventral side and tip acute in lateral view, blunt in dorsal view. Articular process not prominent. Parameres symmetrical, straight, reaching level of tip of median lobe, almost evenly broad in dorsal view, strongly widened dorso-apically in lateral view. Internal sac with narrow, convoluted flagellum forming three complete loops, moderately widened at proximal end.</p> <p>Differential diagnosis: The key given below provides means to distinguish this new species from its Taiwanese congeners. The aedeagal characters suggest relationships with S. sunadai HOSHINA &amp; SUGAYA, 2003 from the Ryukyus, S. glabra LÖBL, 2018 from Yunnan, and S. gracilis LÖBL, 1981 and S. variabilis LÖBL, 1981 from Japan. Scaphobaeocera sunadai may be readily distinguished from S. furva by the parameres gradually widened apically, the apical process of the median lobe strongly inflexed, near apex almost perpendicular to the axis of aedeagus (lateral view) and the flagellum forming a single complete loop. The apical process of the median lobe is much shorter and has blunt apex in S. glabra. This species differs in external characters drastically by its strongly elongate antennomeres XI. The S. gracilis and S. variabilis described from Japan have the pronotum and elytra microsculptured and iridescent, unlike those in S. furva. In addition, the parameres are narrower and only near apices widened in S. gracilis, and the oblique proximal section of the flagellum is much shorter and hardly widened in S. variabilis.</p> <p>Etymology: The species epithet is a Latin adjective meaning dark.</p></div> 	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/B061879F9F1BFFD033FFFE27FC78FE2D	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

It differs in external characters from the latter by the wider antennomeres IX to XI and the setae on the median part of metaventrite distinctly longer. The aedeagi provide reliable distinguish characters, the apical process of the median lobe is notably longer, the parameres are more expanded apically, and the flagellum forming only two loops is distinctly folded in proximal section.</p> <p>Etymology: The species epithet is a Latin adjective meaning not sinuate, referring to the proximal section of the flagellum.</p></div> 	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/B061879F9F18FFD133FFFE30FDEDFEEB	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Elytral with narrowly lighter apices. Ventral side of thorax, most of exposed tergites and ventrites somewhat lighter than pronotum and elytra. Femora and tibiae dark reddish-brown, apical abdominal segments, tarsi and antennae lighter than tibiae, yellowish.

Hypomeron not microsculptured, smooth, with longitudinal stria separating upper oblique part from lower vertical part. Middle area of metaventrite convex, with large centre smooth, densely, distinctly punctate around impunctate centre and with punctures to part about as large as puncture intervals; pubescence short; median stria and median impression absent. Lateral parts of metaventrite very finely and sparsely punctate, not microsculptured. Submesocoxal areas about 0.02 mm, submesocoxal lines appearing impunctate. Tibiae straight.

Internal sac with large basal sclerite joined with narrow, bent flagellum not forming loops.</p> <p>Differential diagnosis: The aedeagal characters of this species suggest relationships with the Japanese S. smetanai LÖBL, 1981. The latter may be distinguished by the well visible elytral and abdominal microsculpture, the distinctly iridescent elytra, and the length/width ratios of the antennomeres, notably by the antennomeres VIII about as narrow as the antennomeres VI and the antennomeres XI about 2.5 times as long as wide. The aedeagi of these two species differ by apical process of the median lobe narrower (lateral view), the margin of the basal sclerite of the internal sac broadly convex, and the proximal section of the flagellum much narrower in S. montana.</p> <p>Etymology: The species epithet is a Latin adjective meaning mountain.</p></div> 	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/B061879F9F19FFD133FFFE6AFC4BF9B0	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

The proximal sections of the flagellum are, however, quite distinctive, being in S. sabapensis oblique, weakly widened and not joint to a proximal capsule.
