Linoderus smetanai differs from L. alajuelensis and L. gracilipes in the distinct colour pattern: head and prothorax dark metallic blue, elytra metallic green, abdomen with first five visible abdominal segments reddish brown and apical abdominal segments dark brown to black; antennae and palpi mostly reddish brown to brown, with legs and styli dark brown to black as well as the first antennomere moderately longer than half of head length*, labial palpus with second palpomere about as long as third*, the first metatarsomere not sexually dimorphic in length*; the abdominal tergites 3–5 with posterior basal transverse carina (PBTC) complete and straight, space behind PBTC not distinctly punctate* and the sternite 9 with several apical setae at each side of emargination are also unique to this species.</p> <p>* Not shown as characters with interspecific variation in the redescription of the genus by Chani-Posse &amp; Solodovnikov (2017)</p> <p>Description. Body length 7.7–8.5 mm. Colouration: as in diagnosis (Figs. 1, 2). Head slightly longer than wide (HW/HL = 0.93–0.94), moderately wider than pronotum (HW/PW = 1.16–1.18). Eyes distinctly shorter than temples (EL/TL = 0.65; both sexes) seen from above (Figs. 1, 2). Antennae with 1st antennomere moderately longer than half of head length (A1/HL = 0.66; both sexes), moderately shorter than 2nd and 3rd combined, 3rd about 1.5 × as long as 2nd. Labial palpus with 2nd palpomere about twice as long as 1st, about as long as 3rd. Maxillary palpus with 4th palpomere (apical) 1.8 × as long as 3rd. Neck about 0.4 × as wide as head at widest point. Pronotum distinctly longer than wide (PW/PL = 0.71–0.72), dorsal rows of punctures each with four punctures, 2nd and 3rd more distant to each other than 2nd to 1st and 3rd to 4th. Elytra at sides about 1.5 × as long as elytra along suture (EtL/Etl= 1.57; both sexes). First metatarsomere not sexually dimorphic in length, distinctly longer than 5th in both sexes (S1/S5 = 1.55–1.66). Abdominal tergites 3–5 with posterior basal transverse carina complete and straight, space behind not distinctly punctate. Male sexual characters: Sternite 8 with medially produced and subangulately emarginate projection (Fig. 3). Sternite 9 with basal portion distinctly asymmetrical, 1.8 × as long as distal portion and deeply emarginate apically, with several apical setae at each side of emargination (Fig. 4). Genital segment with lateral tergal sclerites 9 (styli) dorsoventrally flattened and moderately dilated, with a distinct latero-apical emargination (Fig. 8); tergite 10 subtruncate apically. Aedeagus with median lobe gradually narrowed from about distal half of paramere length and with acute apex; apex of paramere distinctly notched at middle (Figs. 6, 7). Female sexual characters: Sternite 8 with hind margin projected medially (Fig. 10). Genital segment with lateral tergal sclerites 9 (styli) dorsoventrally flattened and not distinctly dilated, with a moderate latero-apical emargination (Fig. 12); tergum 10 subangulate to arcuate apically (Fig. 9); second gonocoxites each with a long macroseta, with minute stylus (Fig. 11) bearing one long apical macroseta.</p> <p>Geographical distribution. Linoderus smetanai has been recorded from four different localities in Western Costa Rica within the 1480–1640 m range of elevation.</p> <p>Etymology. The specific name is dedicated to Dr. Aleš Smetana in recognition of his pioneering work and great legacy in the modern study of the subfamily Staphylininae.</p> <p>Remarks. The new species fully fits into the generic diagnosis provided by Chani-Posse &amp; Solodovnikov (2017).</p> <p>Type material. Holotype ♂ (Fig. 1), with labels: [white label]´CR.
