    Poecilotiphia nitens nov.sp. Holotype: Yemen = / Yemen (8222) 12 km NW Manakhah mal. Trap. 22.X-3.XII.2003 A. v. Harten RMNH03 /, RMNH. Female. Holotype. Figs 18-21. Measurements: body length = 10 mm; forewing length = 5 mm. General aspect shining. Head (but clypeus), forecoxa and mesosoma (but LaSt 2 ) black. Tip of Tsa, clypeus, scape and flagellum, mandible, mid and hind legs, tegulae, pterostigma and veins are light brown. Fore leg, most of 1 st metamerus but narrow apical stripe on tergum, basal half of 2 nd tergum are brown. The remainder of metasoma is bright ferruginous. Yellowish hair on the scape, whitish elsewhere. Pal 3– and Pam 4– segmented. N 1 disk wider than high (ratio LA/A about 1.4). Dorsal P with a distinct long median longitudinal groove, somewhat irregular, shaped initially by three elongated p followed by a narrow stripe of very small p groove. N o t e. Well distinct species by the enamelled aspect, shape of the head, large basal Pal, large pterostigma, long propodeal groove. All the Poecilotiphia males in so far recorded from Arabian peninsula, P. lacteipennis E.SAUNDERS 1901, P. scorteccii GUIGLIA 1968, P. collarinata BONI BARTALUCCI 1997, P. oasicola BONI BARTALUCCI 2001 and P. dhofarensis BONI BARTALUCCI 2004 belong to the P. albomaculata group (BONI BARTALUCCI 2004a), whose hitherto known females (about 15) show a longer than wide pronotal disk. Excluding lacteipennis, whose female is known, and oasicola (which otherwise is very common in Yemen) since on records from Saharian oasis its female appears to be different, it is impossible to couple it with no one of these taxa and at the same time to exclude the existence of further undescribed male belonging to the nigripes group whose the hitherto known four females show the pronotum larger than high in dorsal aspect like the present specimen. Future data could clear the situation. Male. Unknown. E c o l o g y. Unknown. D e r i v a t i o n n o m i n i s.

Figs 38-43. Measurements (mm): body length = 13 mm; fore wing length = 7.5. Black, brown and yellow. Brown: Ventral edge of the clypeus, apex of mandibles, most of the scape, flagellum, veins, legs but yellow stains, lateroterga. Yellow: most of clypeal disk, tips of Tsa, base of mandibles, frontal side of the scape, two large lateral spots along foreborder and one large subapical on N 1 disk, a spot on Es 2 , most of Last 2 , ventral X, apical and ventral femurs, all the tibiae and tarsi, apical stripe on 1 st to 6 th terga and 2 nd to 6 th sterna, two lateral spots on 7 th tergum. Shallow notch between Tsa. PoG very well produced, much more than standard of the genus. Secu stripe as wide as flagellum. Well impressed p. with interspaces less than their diameter on most of the head and mesosoma, settled in rough rows on Sc 1 and Es 2 ;densely packed small p. on postscutellar area; rough strong wrinkles on Em 3 ; very dense rough p. on propodeum; sparse weak pits on terga; large sparse p. on 1 st sternum, weaker on basal half remaining sterna; smooth apical half sterna. Hair whitish and short, longer on P, never hiding underlying integument. D i s t r i b u t i o n: The typical locality. E c o l o g y: Unknown. D e r i v a t i o n o m i n i s: From the ancient kingdom of Elam, the present-day Khuzestan. D i s c u s s i o n: It belongs to the group of palaearctic males with completely hairless and smooth fore (outer) surface of mid femur. It is well known species by the following combination of character states: transversal head (ratio LA/A = 1.15) with an almost straight vertex in frontal aspect; PoG only slightly swollen and well expressed (The ratio LFoO / LPoG is only about 1/3; length of FoO measured from hypostomal basis to clypeus); N 1 disk strongly transversal (Ratio LA/ Am ~ 2,8) with a short laminated keel along its for border; genitalia with stout apex of gonostylus and rather big digitus of the volsella. The female has been described under M. arabica (BONI BARTALUCCI 2004: 384-385, figs 57-62). It is featured by transversal head (ratio LA/A = 1.23), the largely sculptured propodeal disk with strongly impressed median furrow, the ferruginous-brown (vinous) colour of the head and mesosoma.Published as part of Boni, M., 2008, Contribution to the knowledge of the Palaearctic Meriini (Hymenoptera, Tiphiidae, Myzininae), pp. 1367-1397 in Linzer biologische Beiträge 40 (2) on pages 1374-1375, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.543089
