Agra giesberti Erwin, new species
No full textAgra giesberti Erwin, new species (Figs. 3 a, 3 b, 3 c, 3 d, 3 e, 3 f) Holotype. Female. COSTA RICA: Cartago, 15km NE Turrialba, 9 º 53 'N 83 ° 38 'W, April (E. Giesbert) (CAS: ADP 62298). Diagnosis. This is the only species of the buqueti speciesgroup known from Costa Rica. Its alternating interneurs with large and small fovea provide an easy recognition attribute, as does the elongate, multisetiferous and anteriorly tubiform prothorax (Fig. 3 e). Description. Color and luster: Piceous. Head rufinistic, appendages rufotestaceous, and femora infuscated in some adults. Surface very shiny. Head (Fig. 3 a) behind eyes moderately short, markedly tapered in male, more rounded in female. Prothorax (Fig. 3 e) at anterior third somewhat depressed. Elytron (Fig. 3 b) with apex shallowly obliquely arcuate, sutural angle produced. Sternum VI (Fig. 3 d) shallowly vnotched in both sexes. Aedeagus (Fig. 3 f) markedly narrowed apically, ostium of medium length, apex subscimitariform. Stylomere 2 (Fig. 3 c). Size: large, 17.8 to 21.5mm in length, 4.0 to 5.8mm in width. Other specimens examined. Costa Rica: 2 paratypes, 1 male, 1 female, from the following Conservation Areas: Guanacaste, Tortuguero. Costa Rica, Cartago, 1 f, Turrialba, 15.0 km NE, 83 ° 38 'W, 9 ° 53 'N, April, (E. Giesbert)(CAS: ADP 62298); 1 f, Limón, Cariari, nr, Hacienda La Suerte, May, (F.T. Hovore)(FTHC: ADP 70512). I have seen additional specimens (paratypes) from Guatemala and Panamá. Specific epithet. The specific epithet, giesberti, is the Latinized genitive form of the family name of the late Edward Giesbert, amateur Coleopterist extraordinaire, who took time from his beloved cerambycids to collect an Agra or two. Notes. This species ranges from sea level (Panamá) to 2000m (Guatemala).Published as part of Erwin, Terry L., 2002, The Beetle Family Carabidae of Costa Rica: Twentynine new species of Agra Fabricius 1801 (Coleoptera: Carabidae, Lebiini, Agrina), pp. 1-68 in Zootaxa 119 on pages 19-20, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.16280

Epikastea biolat Erwin, new species
No full text<i>Epikastea biolat</i> Erwin, new species <p>(Figs. 1, 12)</p> <p> <b>Holotype.</b> Male. PERÚ, MADRE DE DIOS, Rio Manu, BIOLAT Biodiversity Station, Pakitza Guard Station, 356m, 11º 56’ 47” S, 071º 17’ 00” W, September (T.L. Erwin & M.G. Pogue)(MUSM: ADP 100400).</p> <p> <b>Derivation of specific name.</b> The specific epithet, <i>biolat,</i> is used as a noun in apposition based on the acronym of the Smithsonian Institution’s past Program “Biodiversity in Latin America ” (BIOLAT) which sought to field­train young Latin American biology students in biodiversity techniques and did so for over 200 of them between 1987 and 1991 in Perú and Bolivia. These beetles were collected under the auspices of the BIOLAT Program.</p> <p> <b>Common name.</b> Biolat big­headed carabid beetle.</p> <p> <b>Diagnosis.</b> With the attributes of the genus as described above and pronotum unicolorous, rufous; elytron with preapical spot. Head with fine isodiametric microscupture; elytron with slightly transverse sculpticells; dorsal surface shiny. Size moderately small.</p> <p> <b>Description.</b> (Fig. 1). Size small: ABL = 6.2 to 6.6 mm, SBL = 5.7 to 6.5 mm, TW = 2.6 to 2.8 mm. <i>Color:</i> Dorsum of head, prothorax and entire venter rufescent; mouthparts, antennomeres 1–4 and legs rufotestaceous; antennomeres testaceous. Metathorasic wings clear. <i>Luster:</i> Shiny. <i>Microsculpture:</i> Isodiametric meshes throughout, these slightly transverse on elytra. <i>Head:</i> Slightly broader across eyes than pronotum; frontal furrows very short, shallowly impressed proximal to clypeus, margined laterally by well developed carina, surface near carina slightly rugose; eyes large, produced, gena absent; frons and occiput slightly convex; labrum slightly emarginate; labial palpomere 4 depressed, subequal in size to maxillary palpomere 4. <i>Prothorax:</i> Pronotum cordiform, moderately convex, depressed along midline, side margins broadly explanate, markedly sinuate anterior to slightly obtuse hind angle, base slightly rounded, not lobed posteriorly. <i>Pterothorax:</i> Normal for Agrina, fully winged. <i>Legs:</i> Normal for Agrina. <i>Abdomen</i>: Sterna normal for Agrina, glabrous, except normal paired ambulatory setae on sterna III–V; males with two and females with 3 pairs long setae on sternum VI. <i>Male genitalia:</i> Phallus (Fig. 12) with ostium of 1/4 its length, slightly catopic, apex short, broad and rounded; endophallus without sclerotized attributes, with many trichae. Parameres asymmetric, right very small, left larger.</p> <p> <b>Dispersal potential.</b> These fully winged beetles have been repeatedly fogged from the rainforest canopy and probably are good dispersers like most arboreal beetles.</p> <p> <b>Way of life.</b> See under genus. Two adults of this species were fogged from a tree in the genus <i>Rinorea,</i> others from suspended dead leaf clumps, dry leaves suspended in bamboo stands, dry <i>Cecropia</i> sp. leaves suspended in the canopy, dry <i>Swartzia</i> sp. leaves suspended in bamboo stands, and from beating leaves of shrubs along the trails at Pakitza, Perú. The known altitudinal range of this species is 350 m above sea level. Adults have been obtained in June, July, September, and October; hence there is activity by them in both the dry and rainy seasons.</p> <p> <b>Other specimens examined.</b> Paratypes: 14, PERÚ.
