Sarju enigma Ghauri 1977
<i>Sarju enigma</i> Ghauri, 1977 <p> <i>Sarju enigma</i> Ghauri, 1977: 20–24, figs. 78–84.</p> <p> <b>Type material:</b> Holotype: ♀, Pakistan, Gilgit, 28.vi.1962, (C.I.B.C. Pakistan), on <i>Malus pumilo</i>, C.I. B. C. Fr-6/62- 141/761, (BMNH), no paratypes.</p> <p> <b>Note.</b> This is one of the species of <i>Sarju</i> (group IV species Ghauri, 1977) with the straight second antennal segment unlike the geniculate II antennal segment in other included species. This species is characterized by the broad and plough-shaped parameral crown, cup-shaped concavity on ventral rim of genital capsule and wide and truncate caudolateral lobes. Ghauri (1977) originally described this species from a single female and later on, Ahmad and Afzal (1984) redescribed it along with the illustration of both male and female genitalia. This is yet another species with type locality Gilgit in Pakistan, but, as per the new political map of India released by Survey of India (Survey of India 2020), the region Gilgit is considered to be part of Ladakh and hence treated here as a species from India.</p>Published as part of <i>Salini, S., Rabbani, M.

Kenya (introduced: CHACKO 1973, KARANJA & ALOO 1990). Biology. Tetraphleps raoi is reported to inhabit Benguet pine (Pinus kesiya), feeding on Pineus sp. (Adelgidae) (GHAURI 1965, CHACKO 1973). This species was sent from India to Kenya for release against Pineus pini (Macquart, 1819) on several Pinus spp. KARANJA & ALOO (1990) reported that it established there, and it resulted in the decline of P. pini population.Published as part of Ballal, Chandish R., Akbar, Shahid Ali, Yamada, Kazutaka, Wachkoo, Aijaz Ahmad & Varshney, Richa, 2018, Annotated catalogue of the flower bugs from India (Heteroptera: Anthocoridae, Lasiochilidae), pp. 207-226 in Acta Entomologica Musei Nationalis Pragae 58 (1) on page 210, DOI: 10.2478/aemnp-2018-0018, http://zenodo.org/record/369921

Sarju Ghauri 1977
<i>Sarju</i> Ghauri, 1977 <p> <i>Sarju</i> Ghauri, 1977: 10–11;</p> <p> Type species: <i>Halys obscura</i> Westwood, 1837, by original designation.</p> <p> <i>Sarju</i> Rider, 2006: 311 (Palearctic catalog).</p> <p> <b> Redescription. <i>Structure</i>.</b> <i>Head</i> (Figs 3, 4, 22, 39) nearly parallel to body axis, usually longer than wide (sometimes as long as wide); lateral margins with one or two pairs of teeth, first pair subapical to mandibular plates, always present, rounded or quadrangular and the second pair in front of compound eyes, sometimes indistinct or absent. Mandibular plates variable, straight or obliquely bend downwards at apex, meeting or not meeting in front of clypeus, sometimes partly covering apex of clypeus, apex of mandibular plates rounded or acuminate, longer than clypeus, sometimes nearly equal to clypeus, but not shorter; clypeus open or closed apically; dorsal surface of head usually more or less flattened, sometimes apical region bend downwards. Compound eyes rounded and protruding out. Antennae five segmented, slender with second segment usually bowed and thickened at apex, sometimes thin and straight. Anterior apex of bacculae blunt, quadrangular, not rounded; length of labium variable, reaching meta coxae to middle of fourth abdominal segment.</p> <p> <i>Pronotum</i> (Figs 6, 23, 40). Anterior pronotal margin concave, anterolateral angles with small tooth, anterolateral margins concave (or bisinuate by Ghauri 1977). Humeri variable, mostly short blunt or nodulose.</p> <p> <i>Scutellum</i> (Figs 1, 18, 20) subtriangular, longer than wide at base, abruptly narrowing in posterior third, apex rounded; apex of scutellum much shorter than anterodistal angles of corium; disc of scutellum more or less flat.</p> <p> <i>Hemelytra</i>. Clavus narrowly triangular, corium much surpassing apex of scutellum. Membrane translucent, broadly rounded apically, usually exceeding apex of abdomen, without reticulate venation.</p> <p> <i>Thoracic pleurites and sternum</i>. External scent efferent system typical of Halyini type (Salini 2019, Fig. 91); peritreme spout-shaped (crescent-shaped) usually reaching middle of metapleuron with well developed evaporatorium (Figs 7, 24, 41). Metathoracic spiracle long, narrow and distinctly visible in ventral view.</p> <p> <i>Legs</i>. Slender. Femora unarmed, sparsely pubescent, cylindrical, rounded in cross section. All tibiae slender than respective femora. All tibiae pubescent, dorsally with narrow, median, longitudinal groove. All tarsal segments dorsally regularly rounded, not grooved.</p> <p> <i>Pregenital abdomen.</i> Narrower than pronotum across humeri. Connexivum broad and exposed most of its width. Posterolateral angles of each ventrite angulate or with minute spinous process. Abdominal venter convex medially, with median longitudinal groove, shallow, sometimes absent. Ventrite III without spine or tubercle, usually with slight groove medially.</p> <p> <i>Male genitalia.</i> Genital capsule quadrangular dorsal rim variable (Figs 8, 25, 42); dorsal sclerite lacking; ventral rim with deep or shallow median excavation cup-shaped or broad U-shaped (Fig. 9) or V-shaped or arcuate with (Figs 26, 43) or without sinuate margin; caudal angles rounded or broad and truncate, produced or not produced medially. Paramere (Figs 11–13, 28–29, 45–46) with broad and thick crown, parameral crown with transverse narrow ridge, inner lobe variable, produced into elongate finger-like process or rounded apex or abruptly narrow or gradually narrowed towards apex; stem short. A short process bearing setae (‘setose process’ by Ghauri, 1977) near posterior end on inner side, small, thumb-shaped or conical or apically rounded. Phallus with phallotheca sclerotized and constricted towards base (proximal end), a short angular process (ventral tubercle, vt) just before proximal end of phallotheca ventromedially (Figs 17, 33, 50); three pairs of conjunctival processes-dorsal pair of conjunctival processes (dcp) short, membranous or semi sclerotised, median conjunctival processes (mcp) membranous, trilobate or with three lobes, ventral pair (vcp) and processes of aedeagus (=penial lobes) (pa) semisclerotised or sclerotised; aedeagus (ae) moderately elongate, tubular, usually shorter than processes of aedeagus.</p> <p> <i>Female genitalia.</i> Terminalia (Figs 34, 51). Shape of Valvifers VIII variable, sometimes posteriorly produced in to finger-like process (Figs 51, 54), triangulin sometimes exposed externally. Spermatheca (Figs 35, 52) with median dilation elongate; apical receptacle with three narrow finger-like processes (except in <i>S. lata</i> Ghauri according to Ghauri 1977).</p> <p> <b>Differential diagnosis</b>. The genus <i>Sarju</i> is quite similar to <i>Cahara</i> Ghauri. The distinctive character which distinguishes this genus is the absence of median lobes in the concave ventral margin of genital capsule whereas in members of <i>Cahara,</i> a pair of median lobes is present in concave ventral margin of genital capsule (Ghauri 1977). The overall shape of the paramere (Figs 11, 29, 46) and the presence of a short projection towards base of paramere (‘setose process’ by Ghauri 1977) are other diagnostics for this genus, though these characters are shared with members of <i>Cahara.</i> All the members of <i>Sarju,</i> so far reported, have the mandibular plates either as long as or longer than clypeus but not shorter than clypeus, though this character is shared with quite a few species in various related genera. The geniculate (bowed) second antennal segment with swollen apex (the degree of bending and swelling slightly variable between species) is an important distinguishing character of members of <i>Sarju</i> though it comprises species with normal straight second antennal segment like in other groups. Hence this character alone cannot vouch for the identity of this genus rather a set of characters mentioned above can distinguish its members.</p> <p> <b>Remarks.</b> Members of this genus are of typical Halyine type with respect to their external colouration, the presence of gradation of variation found in structural characters (morphological plasticity) and habitat (most of them are bark dwelling). Hence the examination of male genitalia is often necessary (especially if the second antennal segment is not geniculate) in order to separate <i>Sarju</i> from similar genera in the Halyini. The above mentioned similarity in external colouration and morphological plasticity are applicable to various species within <i>Sarju</i> too. Therefore, the male genitalia are critical for accurate species determination in <i>Sarju.</i></p>Published as part of <i>Salini, S., Rabbani, M.
