Beenenia scanticola sp. nov., by present designation.</p> <p>Description. Body elongate, dorsum metallic dark greenish to black or brownish with distinct metallic tint, antennae black, legs black with metallic tint, with pale coxae and trochanters (in B. kabateki sp. nov. also with pale knees), dorsum densely pubescent, semiopaque to shiny.</p> <p>Head large, measured with eyes slightly narrower or as wide as anterior margin of pronotum, eyes small, moderately projecting beyond head outline. Labrum transverse, with anterior margin shallowly incised, covered with several long setae. Anterior part of head very short, genae 0.30 times as long as diameter of eye. Nasal keel poorly developed but visible. Frontal tubercles large, convex, distinctly elevated, impunctate, with apices elongate, separated from each other by thin sulcus which continues through vertex. Frons shallowly depressed behind frontal tubercles but not grooved. Vertex large, moderately convex, densely covered with large punctures and setae. Antennae relatively robust, short, reaching slightly behind midlenght of body, antennomeres II–VI flatenned and slightly impressed in basal part, apically extended, antennomeres VII–XI robust, gradually less flattened, last two antennomeres subtubular.</p> <p>Pronotum transverse, 1.75–2.05 times as wide as long, narrower than base of elytra. Anterior margin thinly bordered only at sides or unbordered, lateral margin deeply and thinly bordered, posterior margin shallowly and thinly bordered. Surface of pronotum moderately convex, with shallow depressions laterally and in middle of both anterior and posterior part of pronotum, densely covered with fine to large punctures. All angles prominent, triangular, projecting laterally, anterior angles bearing 4 to 6 long pale setae, posterior angles with two or three long pale setae. Scutellum subtriangular, with widely rounded tip, subopaque, covered with microsculpture or indistinct fine punctures, and fine setae.</p> <p>Elytra with well developed humeral calli. Surface very densely covered with small confused punctures and with one or two types of setae. Interspaces between punctures narrower than diameter of each puncture. Postscutellar area slightly depressed. Epipleura not developed. Basal part of elytral lateral slope inflexed down inwards, towards apex more or less vertical. Humeral calli well developed. Macropterous.</p> <p>Legs moderately long and narrow, middle and posterior tibiae unarmed at apex. Tibiae even, without longitudinal ridges or furrows. Metatarsomere I as long as tarsomeres II–III combined. Anterior coxal cavities open posteriorly, prosternum very thinly visible between coxae. Claws bifid with inner branch shorter than outer one (Fig. 8).</p> <p>Basal two third of aedeagus robust and more or less tubular, apical third slightly asymmetrical, flat and bent downwards, apex widely rounded with distinct small process (Figs. 3, 9). Spermatheca with C-shaped cornu, nodulus small, narrower than base of cornu, ductus receptaculi short (Figs. 7, 12). Vaginal palpi short and robust (Figs. 6, 11).</p> <p>Sexual dimorphism. Weakly indicated. Males on average smaller. Last ventrite in male with posterior margin widely triangularly impressed but not incised (Fig. 4), in female evenly rounded.</p> <p>Differential diagnosis. Beenenia gen. nov. belongs to the tribe Galerucini. Because of even tibiae without any longitudinal ridges or furrows, Beenenia gen. nov. has to be classified in the section Atysites (CHAPUIS 1875, SEENO &amp; WILCOX 1982). From all genera of the Atysites, Beenenia gen. nov. can be distinguished by the complete absence of epipleura. Externally similar genera Luperocella Jacoby, 1900; Galerucella Crotch, 1873; Pyrrhalta Joannis, 1865; Xanthogaleruca Laboissière, 1934 and Tarachodia Weise, 1902 can be separated also by thin, almost filiform antennae.</p> <p>In habitus, Beenenia gen. nov. is similar also to several genera from the section Coelomerites (characterized by tibiae with longitudinal ridges). However, only in the genus Schematizella Jacoby, 1888 epipleura are significantly reduced – visible in the basal fifth and than extremely narrow or vanishing (Jacoby 1888; R. Beenen, pers. comm. 2011). Antennomeres II–VI are not flattened in Schematizella. Other similar genera of Coelomerites differ in well developed epipleura and absence of pubescence on dorsal side of the body (Arimetus Jacoby, 1903) or in mucronate mid tibiae (Dircemella Weise, 1902; Hemiphracta Weise, 1902).</p> <p>Etymology. Dedicated to Ron Beenen (Nieuwegein, The Netherlands), an excellent specialist in Galerucinae. Gender: feminine.</p> </div>	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/17698A63FFF1E86AFE36E2D1FE30A052	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply. See Agosti, D., Egloff, W., 2009.

According to SCHLICH &amp; WAGNER (2010), the only entirely yellow Monolepta Chevrolat, 1836 from the Arabian Peninsula is M. saudica Medvedev, 1996. It can be distinguished from M. suchomeli sp. nov. by larger body size (3.7–4.9 mm) and by aedeagus gradually tapering towards the apex. In addition, Monolepta suchomeli sp. nov. is very similar to the yellow West Palearctic species with anterior coxal cavities open, metatarsomere I more or less as long as the two following tarsomeres combined and its extreme base black, which are traditionally classified in the genus Calomicrus Dillwyn, 1829 (see also Comments on classification below): C. opthalmicus (Ogloblin, 1936) (Iran, 3.2 mm), C. syriacus (Weise, 1924) (Syria, Turkey, 3.3–4.2 mm), C. wilcoxi Lopatin, 1984 (Iran, 2.7–4.5 mm), C. vanharteni Lopatin, 2001 (Yemen, 4.0 mm), C. arabicus Lopatin &amp; Nesterova, 2006 (United Arab Emirates, 3.5 mm), C. fallax (Joannis, 1865) (northern Africa, 3.0–4.0 mm). With the body length 1.9–2.8 mm, M. suchomeli sp. nov. is the smallest species among them. Aedeagus of M. suchomeli sp. nov. is slender, parallel, with apex widely rounded, while it is wide, parallel and with rounded apex in C. fallax, distinctly constricted subapically in C. vanharteni, with strongly narrowed apical half in C. wilcoxi and C. arabicus, with apical third wide and slightly narrowed in C. syriacus, or slender and gradually narrowed in C. opthalmicus.</p> <p>Comments to classification. Generic placement of M. suchomeli sp. nov. in the genus Monolepta is supported mainly by long first metatarsomere with extreme base black and structure of spermatheca (Fig. 24) typical for Monolepta species (cf. WAGNER 2007). On the other hand, the base of vaginal palpi of M. suchomeli sp. nov. (Fig. 21) lacks the wing-shaped base known in Monolepta species (cf. WAGNER 2007). Although anterior coxal cavities are usually described as closed in the species-rich genus Monolepta (e.g. KIMOTO 1989, WARCHAŁOWSKI 2010) (open in M. suchomeli sp. nov.), WAGNER (2003) doubted closed cavities as a constant character usable for identification of the genus Monolepta, as they are variable from widely open to closed. Variability in the shape of coxal cavities, as well as variability in the length of metatarsomeres (cf. BEZDĚK 2007) could lead to the confusions between genera Calomicrus and Monolepta. The genus Calomicrus, distributed in the Old World, cumulates a large number of species in several habitually different groups. It is highly probable that Calomicrus in its current concept is paraphyletic, and it will be necessary to transfer at least some of these groups to other genera (see also KIMOTO 1989, BEZDĚK 2005, BEENEN 2010, and BEENEN &amp; WARCHAŁOWSKI 2010). Unfortunately, the study of relationships of yellow Calomicrus species to Monolepta has been insufficient, and although I presume that in the future some of the yellow Mediterranean and Arabian Calomicrus species could be transferred to Monolepta, I refrain from doing it without a comprehensive phylogenetic study.</p> <p>Etymology.

Antennomeres I–III yellow, antennomeres IV gradually darkened, antennomeres V–XI black.</p> <p>Head slightly narrower than anterior part of pronotum, lustrous, completely covered with very fine microreticulation (including frontal tubercles). Labrum transverse, with six pale setae in transverse row, anterior margin almost straight, with indistinct incision in middle. Anterior margin of clypeus with several long pale setae. Frontal tubercles subtriangular, distinctly elevated, with anterior tips separated by even nasal keel. Both tubercles separated from each other by thin shallow furrow as well as posterior margin of frontal tubercles from frons. Interocular space wide, 2.90 times as wide as transverse diameter of eye. Frons distinctly impressed just behind frontal tubercles. Frons with setigerous pore behind eye bearing long seta. Vertex with indistinct longitudinal median line.

Surface densely covered with fine punctures. Disc with large transverse, slightly rounded depression. Lateral margins moderately rounded, anterior margin almost straight, posterior margin rounded.Anterior margin unbordered, lateral and posterior margins distinctly bordered. Anterior angles nearly rectangular, posterior angles obtusely angulate. All angles with setigerous pore bearing long pale seta. Scutellum subtriangular with rounded apex, lustrous, glabrous, impunctate.</p> <p>Elytra lustrous, subparallel, slightly divergent posteriorly, with maximal width at last third, 0.73 times as long as body and 1.77 times as long as wide.

Last ventrite with two incisions, median lobe distinctly impressed (Fig. 30).</p> <p>Aedeagus slender, apical part gradually narrowed, apex subtriangular (Fig. 25).</p> <p>Female. Last ventrite regularly rounded, without incisions. Spermatheca with globular nodulus, cornu relatively robust, C–shaped (Fig. 31). Sternite VIII almost circular, tignum very long, apically slightly bent (Fig. 26). Vaginal palpi with several long setae apically, base wing-shaped (Fig. 27). Ventral bursa sclerites with two larger teeth apically and 7–8 small teeth on surface (Fig. 28). Dorsal bursa sclerites narrow, with four small teeth (Fig. 29).</p> <p>Variability. The colouration is variable. While head is almost always black, pronotum varies from dark brown to black, and elytra from pale brown (often with darker suture, anterior margin and epipleura) to completely black. The form with black head and pronotum and brown elytra is dominating. Only several specimens have completely black dorsum. The width/length ratio of pronotum varies between 1.62–1.69. Two females with black dorsum have distinctly shorter antennae (Fig. 15).</p> <p>Differential diagnosis. Due to the anterior coxal cavities open, first metatarsomere slightly shorter than the two following tarsomeres combined, with its extreme base black, base of vaginal palpi wing-shaped, and the characteristic shape of spermatheca (Fig. 31), M. hlavaci sp. nov. is classified in the genus Monolepta. The combination of black head, brownish black or black pronotum, and pale to dark brown elytra in M. hlavaci sp. nov. is unique within all Monolepta from the Arabian Peninsula and northeastern Africa. See also Comments on classification under M. suchomeli sp. nov.</p> <p>Having a transverse depression on pronotum, Monolepta hlavaci sp. nov. is similar to Calomicrus foveolatus Rosenhauer, 1856 from Spain, but the depression is deeper in M. hlavaci sp. nov. Dominating form of M. hlavaci sp. nov. with brown elytra can be easily distinguished from completely black C. foveolatus. Rare black form of M. hlavaci sp. nov. differs from C. foveolatus also in the structure of tarsi (first pro- and mesotarsomeres slender in M. hlavaci sp. nov., while more robust, subtriangular in C. foveolatus).</p> <p>Etymology.

Kabátek leg. (JBCB).</p> <p>Distribution. Aulacophora foveicollis is widely distributed in southern Palearctic, African and Oriental Regions. It was reported from Yemen by BRYANT (1957). However, re-examination of those specimens is necessary to decide if his specimens belong to the true A. foveicollis, A. calva or unclear species of Aulacophora (see below).</p> <p>Comments. All three recently collected specimens have yellow underside, only abdomen has black lateral margins. The median lobe of the male last visible ventrite is shallowly impressed but its apex has a deep transverse oval cavity (Fig. 40). The body lenght of three available males: 7.0– 7.2 mm. The same colouration of underside was reported by MEDVEDEV (1996) for specimens of A. foveicollis from Saudi Arabia. Although the aedeagus of the Yemeni specimens is very similar to that of A. foveicollis as published by BERTI (1990) (see Figs. 41, 42), I have some doubts that my and Medvedev′ s specimens belong to A. foveicollis because this species has abdomen black with orange median lobe of the last male ventrite only. In my opinion specimens from the Arabian Peninsula may represent an undescribed species but I am unable to make a comprehensive revision of Aulacophora foveicollis material necessary for such decision at the moment. Moreover, I have not seen any female from the Arabian population whose structure of abdomen and pygidium can also help to unravel this problem.</p> </div>	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/17698A63FFE4E87DFE5DE7D9FDE8A0C4	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
