    No full text
    Genus Sinodulia Kazantsev, 2002 Sinodulia Kazantsev, 2002: 12 Type species: Sinodulia gressitti Kazantsev, 2002 (by original designation) Diagnosis. Sinodulia is separable from Platerodrilus and other platerodriline genera by a combination of the following traits: short mandibles, parallel-sided, distally incised scutellum, absent plantar pads on tarsomeres, more robust median lobe, and not proximally incised phallobase of male genitalia (Figs 78–79). Distribution. Central China (Hubei and Sichuan).Published as part of Kazantsev, Sergey V., 2021, New and little known taxa of neotenic lyropaeine net-winged beetles (Coleoptera Lycidae), pp. 437-460 in Zootaxa 4965 (3) on pages 458-459, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4965.3.2, http://zenodo.org/record/475266

Type species: Helcophorus tricolor Kazantsev, 2000 (original designation).Published as part of KAZANTSEV, SERGEY V. & PERKOVSKY, EVGENY E., 2022, Imprint of a Helcophorus Fairmaire, 1881: the first net-winged beetle (Coleoptera Lycidae) from Rovno amber, pp. 84-90 in Zootaxa 5128 (1) on page 86, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5128.1.4, http://zenodo.org/record/649804

    Atamania Kazantsev 2005

    Genus Atamania Kazantsev, 2005 Atamania Kazantsev, 2005: 8. Type species: Atamania tembeling Kazantsev, 2005 (by original designation). Horakiella Bocakova, 2006: 134, syn. nov. Type species: Horakiella pahangana Bocakova, 2006 (by original designation). Remarks. Although Atamania externally resembles Platerodrilus, distinguishable by the short mandibles and less deflexed at sides pronotum (Figs 67, 68), it (as Horakiella) is placed in a different clade by the DNA analysis (Masek et al., 2015). Horakiella pahangana Bocakova, 2006, the type species of Horakiella Bocakova, 2006, described without comparison to Atamania, is apparently congeneric with A. tembeling, the type species of Atamania: the only character in which the two taxa seem to be different is the non-incised distally terminal tergite of Horakiella (Bocakova, 2006); while this character itself is not critical for generic delimitation, as present in other unrelated lineages and not an apomorphy of the genus, there is a possibility that the miniature distal incision was overlooked in the distally semi-folded terminal tergite of H. pahangana; a comparison of these two species, both from Pahang, Malaysia, is needed to check if they are not even conspecific. Therefore, Horakiella Bocakova, 2006, syn. nov. is proposed to be considered a junior synonym of Atamania Kazantsev, 2005. Distribution. Malay Peninsula and northern Borneo.Published as part of Kazantsev, Sergey V., 2021, New and little known taxa of neotenic lyropaeine net-winged beetles (Coleoptera Lycidae), pp. 437-460 in Zootaxa 4965 (3) on page 457, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4965.3.2, http://zenodo.org/record/475266

    Mesolycus qinlinganus (Kazantsev, 2000), comb. nov. Dilophotes qinlinganus Kazantsev, 2000: 330. Remarks Due to a proofreading error wrong figures were referred to this species in Kazantsev (2000). Correct figures should be 7–8. Therefore, all references to Dilophotes qinlinganus in Bic (2002) should be attributed to Dilophotes berezowskii, and vice versa.Published as part of Kazantsev, Sergey V., 2004, Contribution to the knowledge of Macrolycini with description of Calcaeron, new genus (Coleoptera, Lycidae), pp. 1-32 in Zootaxa 493 on page 19, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.15751

    Lybnopaeus Kazantsev 1998

    Genus Lybnopaeus Kazantsev, 1998 Lybnopaeus Kazantsev, 1998: 16. Type species: Lyropaeus avernus Kazantsev, 1997 (by original designation). Diagnosis. The genus can be easily differentiated from the somewhat similar Lyropaeus Waterhouse, 1878 by the concave anterior margin of prosternum, short spiculum gastrale composed of a pair of non-fused apodemes, relatively wide tarsomeres 1–4 and different type of the aedeagus, with broad and rounded phallobase, dentate parameres and laterally flattened median lobe, provided with long, bulging distally basal apodemes penetrating deep into the phallobase (Figs 1–5). In contrast, Lyropaeus species have convex anteriorly prosternum, long uniform spiculum gastrale, narrow tarsomeres 1–4 and elongate, narrowing proximally phallobase, non–dentate parameres and the laterally widened median lobe of the male genitalia, with distally acute basal apodemes penetrating only slightly into the phallobase (Figs 9–10). Distribution. Borneo (Sabah).Published as part of Kazantsev, Sergey V., 2021, New and little known taxa of neotenic lyropaeine net-winged beetles (Coleoptera Lycidae), pp. 437-460 in Zootaxa 4965 (3) on page 438, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4965.3.2, http://zenodo.org/record/475266

    Platerodrilini Kazantsev 2005

    Tribe Platerodrilini Kazantsev, 2005 <p> <b>Diagnosis.</b> The tribe Platerodrilini is different from Miniduliticolini in the antennal structure, with antennomere 3 similar in size and vestiture to antennomere 2, not to antennomere 4, in the elytra with longitudinal costae, in the hind wing venation, with cubital veins connected to media, and in the plantar pad present at least on tarsomere 4. The tribe can be easily distinguished from Lyropaeini by the developed mandibles and long narrow median lobe of the male genitalia.</p> <p> <b>Distribution.</b> The tribe Platerodrilini is endemic to Southeast Asia and is found from the eastern Himalayas and Central China to Java, Borneo, and the Philippines.</p> <p> <b>Remarks.</b> Further study of the genus <i>Autaphes</i> Kazantsev, 2005 from the Northern Territory, Australia (Holotype of the type species deposited in USNM, Washington, D.C.) that was placed in Platerodrilini (‘Duliticolini’), provided that it confirms its placement, may expand the distribution area of the tribe. At the same time <i>Microeron</i> Kazantsev, 2005 from Mexico (Holotype of the type species deposited in AMNH, New York), that was also tentatively referred to Platerodrilini (Kazantsev, 2005), apparently does not belong here and should be attributed to Calopterini.</p>Published as part of <i>Kazantsev, Sergey V., 2021, New and little known taxa of neotenic lyropaeine net-winged beetles (Coleoptera Lycidae), pp. 437-460 in Zootaxa 4965 (3)</i> on page 442, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4965.3.2, <a href="http://zenodo.org/record/4752662">http://zenodo.org/record/4752662</a&gt

    Review of Aferos Kazantsev (Coleoptera, Lycidae), with a note on Staepteron cyanoxanthum (Bourgeois)

    No full text
    The genus Aferos Kazantsev is redescribed and six new species, A. endroedyi sp. n., A. natalensis sp. n., A. rubellus sp. n., A. silvestris sp. n., A. transvaalensis sp. n. and A. youngai sp. n. are described from South Africa. A key to all 18 known species of Aferos is provided. Aferotini Kazantsev, 2004, syn. n. is synonymized with Slipinskiini Bocák et Bocáková, 1992. Staepteron cyanoxanthum (Bourgeois) is illustrated, and the genus Staepteron Kazantsev is tentatively placed in Flagraxina (Dictyopterini, Erotinae).</jats:p
