Cryptocephalus jirofti sp. nov. differs from C. vitellinus Lopatin in the widened ¿rst mesotarsomere in both sexes, in the male in having both the ¿rst pro- and mesotarsomeres strongly widened (only the ¿rst protarsomeres are strongly widened in C. vitellinus), in the female the ¿rst mesotarsomere is wider than the ¿rst metatarsomere (¿rst pro- and mesotarsomeres of equal width in C. vitellinus). From C. lucidus Rapilly, C. jirofti sp. nov. differs in the pale yellow tibiae (pro- and mesotibia with brown marking in C. lucidus), the uniformly yellow pronotum (yellowish-orange with a lighter yellow transverse spot at the base in C. lucidus), and the pale yellow elytra with blurred brownish humeral marking (black humeral marking distinct and a longitudinal blackish brown marking present in apical third of elytron in C. lucidus). From both C. vitellinus and C. lucidus, C. jirofti sp. nov. differs in the shape of the aedeagus, which in lateral view is strongly bulging in the apical part, and in dorsal view the apex of the aedeagus is triangular with the tip forming a broad denticle.</p> <p>Etymology. The speci¿c epithet refers to the collecting site, Jiroft; noun in genitive case.</p> <p>Distribution.
