Dahan-shan, Chunrih Township, Pingtung County, Taiwan. Diagnosis. This species is easily distinguishable from the other Taiwanese congeners by having piceous elytra. The species is very similar to A. sauteri, but differs in the following characteristics: posterior margin of pygidium and 8 th sternite emarginate at middle; spicular apodeme connected with spicular plates; phallobasic apodeme weakly dilated apically and incised at the apex; ventral phallobasic plates well sclerotized. Description. Male (n = 11, Figs 1 D– 1 F): Head, antennomeres, pronotum, legs and abdomen yellowish orange; apical parts of mandibles black. Elytra metallic piceus. Head clothed with yellowish suberect setae on the area from frons to vertex and brownish setae on occiput; pronotal disk with yellowish and brownish suberect setae; elytra clothed with black suberect setae, mingled with yellowish setae near humeri; abdomen sparsely set with yellow suberect setae. Maxillary palpi with the last segment short, nearly triangular, obliquely truncate at apex. Antennomeres 4 to 8 weakly serrate, gradually becoming shorter apically; 9 th and 10 th serrate, as wide as long. Pronotum 1.3–1.5 (1.4) times as wide as long. Elytra oblong, weakly convex dorsally, 1.1–1.5 (1.4) times as long as wide, widest near middle, sparsely set with setigerous punctures throughout. Pygidium (Fig. 4 H) with posterior margin emarginate at middle. Eighth sternite (Fig. 4 I) semicircular; posterior margin faintly emarginate. Spicular fork (Fig. 4 J) with elongate intraspicular plate; spicular lobes weakly colored and almost membranous; spicular apodeme 1 / 2 as long as the total length of spicular fork. Aedeagus in fully inflated condition (Figs 6 C– 6 D) orthogonally curved ventrally at the base of CM in lateral view; CM cylindrically swollen, slightly dilated basally, thence constricted at base; phallus cylindrically swollen. Tegmen (Figs 4 K– 4 L) with phallobase oblong, nearly half length of tegmen, roundly pointed at apex; phallobasic apodeme in ventral view elongate, slightly dilated apically from apical 1 / 3 and incised at apex, almost straight in lateral view; ventral phallobasic plates well sclerotized; phallobasic struts divaricated from apical 1 / 3. Phallus (Figs 4 M– 4 N) longer than tegmen, slightly sinuous in lateral view; phallic plates uncinate at apex, densely with bi- or tridentate denticles from apical 1 / 4 to subapices of ventral margins. Female (n = 9): Similar to male, but the apical margin of 7 th sternite slightly and triangularly incised at middle. Pygidium with posterior margins (Fig. 7 C) roundly projected posteriorly; pygidial struts elongate. Eighth sternite (Fig. 7 D) with apical margin roundly projected posteriorly. Pronotum 1.3–1.6 (1.4) times as wide as long. Elytra 1.3–1.5 (1.4) times as long as wide. Measurements. Male (n = 11): BL 6.3–8.4 (7.2) mm, PL 1.4 –2.0 (1.7) mm, PW 2.0– 2.7 (2.3) mm, EW 3.2– 4.1 (3.6) mm, EL 4.2–5.9 (4.9) mm. Female (n = 9): BL 6.5–8.2 (7.5) mm, PL 1.5 –2.0 (1.8) mm, PW 2.1–2.7 (2.5) mm, EW 3.0– 4.1 (3.7) mm, EL 4.4–5.5 (5.0) mm. Etymology. The specific name is derived from the piceous elytra. Distribution. Taiwan (Taoyuan, Hsinchu, Yilan, Nantou, Hualien, Kaohsiung, Taitung, Pingtung).Published as part of Murakami, Hiroyuki, Yamasako, Junsuke, Chou, Wen-I & Yang, Ganyan, 2013, Review of the genus Allochotes (Coleoptera: Cleridae: Neorthopleurinae) from Taiwan, pp. 565-577 in Zootaxa 3710 (6) on pages 568-569, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.3710.6.3, http://zenodo.org/record/21692
