Castanal 42 tree with vines; BIOLAT/COLE 000002811.</p> <p>Specific epithet.</p> <p>I am very pleased to dedicate this handsome new species to the excellent French explorer and collector of carabid beetles, Marc de Mathan (1876-1908) (for a biographical note, see Moret 1993). He collected in Brazil, Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia, and Panama. More than 130 years ago, he collected a series of specimens of this new species (preserved at the MNHN) in Peru. Several specimens that I attribute to this species were more recently collected at Pakitza, Rio Manu, by T.L. Erwin and co-workers(see below, in Description: notes about the variability).</p> <p>Diagnosis.</p> <p>With the character states of the genus Calleida in the wider sense, but from the closest Neotropical species markedly characterized by the peculiar combination of the following morphological features: medium sized (TL: mm 8.7-10.5); pronotum transverse-cordiform, with lateral furrows very wide, flattened, and lateral margins reflexed and sinuate in the basal fourth; lateral grooves very wide and flattened, deeply punctate and wrinkled; lateral reflection evident. Elytra elongate-ovate, not beaded at apex and with outer apical angle thickened and obtusely rounded; elytral striae deep, punctate, intervals convex. Body markedly bicolored: head blackish, pronotum brown with evident metallic green reflection on disc and lateral margins widely reddish, underside and legs dark brown, contrasting with the metallic purple or purple greenish or green elytra. Abdominal sternum VII with median deep excision and two setae on each side in males (three on one side, exceptionally, in one examined individual), three setae in females. Male genitalia as in Fig. 14.</p> <p>Description.</p> <p>General features as in Figs 11, 12. Medium sized: L: 9.5-11.2 mm; TL: 8.7-10.5 mm.</p> <p>Color: head black, with two slightly distinct or vanished reddish spots on frons; antennomere 1 reddish, antennomeres 2-4 blackish, following antennomeres reddish, darkened at apex. Prothorax, pterothorax, legs, abdomen, basal margin and epipleura of elytra concolorous brown with metallic reflection. Lateral margins of pronotum widely reddish. Elytra on disc bright metallic purple red or red greenish or green with purple reflection.</p> <p>Luster and microsculpture: head, pronotum and elytra glossy, with generally effaced microlines on head and pronotum, more evident on the elytral intervals, in form of isodiametric mesh pattern.</p> <p>Head: wide, flattened, with evident neck constriction; frontal furrows short, wide; genae short, very swollen, not contiguous with the posterior margin of eyes; eyes very large and prominent; two supraorbital setae on each side.</p> <p>Prothorax: transverse-cordiform (ratio PL/PW: 0.91), with lateral margins widely rounded in the anterior half, in some individuals constricted in front, markedly sinuate in the basal fourth. Lateral grooves very wide and flattened, deeply punctate and wrinkled; lateral reflection evident. Disc depressed, with shallow transverse wrinkles. Median furrow deep, complete, reaching both the anterior and posterior margins; basal foveae deep, wide, almost smooth. Anterior angles rounded, fully effaced; basal angles obtuse. Base oblique at sides, beaded. One paramedial seta and one basolateral seta on each side present.</p> <p>Elytra: moderately elongate (ratio EL/EW: 1.60), slightly widened at the apical third; striae deeply impressed, punctate; intervals convex, with small but evident punctuations. Interval 3 with two discal and one apical setiferous punctures; umbilicate series of 15 punctures along stria 8, interrupted in the middle. Post-humeral sinuation shallow but evident; pre-apical callosity small, distinct on interval 8. Apex not beaded, with outer apical angle thickened and obtusely rounded. Interval 3 with two discal and one apical setiferous punctures; umbilicate series of 14 punctures along stria 8, interrupted in the middle.</p> <p>Hind wings: fully developed.</p> <p>Legs: robust, tarsomeres wide, depressed. Metatarsomeres 1 and 2 shallowly grooved on the dorsal side; metatarsomere 4 deeply bilobed, its lobes widened at apex. Tarsal claws denticulate, each with six long teeth on the inner side.</p> <p>Abdominal sterna: abdominal sternum VII with deep median excision and two setae on each side in males (three on one side, exceptionally, in one examined individual), three setae in females.</p> <p>Male genitalia: median lobe of aedeagus (Fig. 14) relatively large-sized, depressed at sides, widened and ventrally prominent at the basal third; apical lamina obtusely rounded at apex. Endophallus with a long, basally twisted flagellum, and two subapical spines.</p> <p>Female genitalia: not examined.</p> <p>Notes about the variability of the species.</p> <p>Despite the long distance between Tarapoto (type locality) and Pakitza, there are no evident morphological characters that differentiate specimens collected at Rio Manu from those from Tarapoto.</p> <p>Geographical distribution and habitat.</p> <p>Widely spread in the western Amazonian basin: south-western Peru: San Martin (Tarapoto) and Madre de Dios regions; Brazil: western Amazonas, S. to Paulo d’Olivença. Individuals were obtained by T. Erwin and co-workers in February, September and October at Rio Manu by fogging canopies of different trees, and in May to August by M. de Mathan in other localities (1885-1888: see Type material).</p> </div>	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/2879D3565A2154388D5D1180CE93FE96	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Lateral furrows narrow, punctate; lateral reflection slight. Disc convex, with superficial transverse wrinkles. Median furrow deep, reaching the posterior margin. Anterior angles rounded, not prominent; basal angles obtuse but evident. Base almost straight, beaded. One paramedial seta and one basolateral seta on each side present.</p> <p>Elytra: elongate (ratio EL/EW: 1.8), depressed, slightly widened at the apical third; striae deep, deeply punctate; intervals slightly convex. Post-humeral sinuation inconspicuous, pre-apical callosity absent. Apex beaded, oblique, with the outer angle fully rounded and sutural angle prominent.

Disc moderately convex, with dense, deep transverse wrinkles. Basal foveae deep, punctate. Anterior angles rounded, fully effaced; basal angles right. Base straight, completely beaded. Paramedial seta at sides absent; basolateral seta on each side present.</p> <p>Elytra: moderately elongate (ratio EL/EW: 1,7), depressed, slightly widened at the apical third; striae impressed, punctate; intervals convex. Post-humeral sinuation very shallow, pre-apical outer callosity slightly distinguishable on interval 8. Apex beaded. Interval 3 with two small discal and one apical setiferous punctures; umbilicate series of 13 large, foveate punctures along stria 8, interrupted in the middle.</p> <p>Hind wings: fully developed.</p> <p>Legs: elongate.

The specimens of the type series were obtained mostly by insecticidal fog of bamboo, in September and October.</p> <p>Relationships.</p> <p>Calleida anomala is very isolated into the genus owing to some unique and peculiar morphological characters, i.e., the absence of paramedial (anterior) seta at sides of pronotum and the general features of head and prothorax. However, for some features such as the small-medium sized body, and the abdominal sternum VII with one seta on each side in males, two setae in females, it should be related to a large group of species widely distributed mostly in Venezuela and Brazil (many of them undescribed), including C. similis Reiche, 1842, C. subaenea Mannerheim, 1837, and C. purpuripennis Chaudoir, 1872.</p> </div>	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/1BF2A77304D15EA18130B1ACB428A18C	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

From the latter, sympatric at the Rio Manu river (see Figs 19, 23), it is markedly distinct for its larger size, much wider head, pronotum, and elytra, different color of elytra (which are concolorous metallic purple-red in C. jeanneli), the apical outer angle of elytra acutely prominent (Figs 22, 23), and the more elongate gonocoxite 2 of ovipositor (Figs 20, 21). These taxa form a very homogeneous group of highly derived and rare, specialized species, apparently localized to a reduced area between southern Ecuador and Peru, on the Amazon side of the Andes (Casale 2008).</p> </div>	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/FCD56EBD288C58728BADB55DC015FBCC	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
