E-mail: [email protected] Abstract The genus Metipocregyes Breuning, 1939 is reviewed. Hypocacia fruhstorferi Breuning, 1959 and H. wenhsini Yamasako & Chou, 2013 are transferred to Metipocregyes. Three new species of Metipocregyes are described; M. brunneatus sp. nov. from Vietnam, M. holzschuhi sp. nov. from Laos, and M. variabilis sp. nov. from China. With these taxonomic acts, Metipocregyes is comprised of seven species and an identification key for them is presented. The habitus, male genitalia, and name-bearing types of all species in this study are figured. Key words: Coleoptera, Cerambycidae, Lamiinae, Mesosini, Taxonomy, Oriental region Introduction Metipocregyes Breuning, 1939 is a small genus of the tribe Mesosini Mulsant, 1839 (Coleoptera, Cerambycidae, Lamiinae). It was established by Breuning (1939) based on a single species, Mesosa nodieri Pic, 1933 from Vietnam. Subsequently, two species from Laos, M. rondoni Breuning, 1965 and M. affinis Breuning, 1968, were added to the genus (Breuning 1965, 1968). Of those members, M. rondoni was recently transferred to the genus Anipocregyes Breuning, 1939 by Yamasako & Makihara (2017) with a replacement name, A. albifrons Yamasako & Makihara, 2017. Prior to this study, the genus was comprised of only two species from Vietnam and Laos, and the original generic concept had never been reviewed since its establishment by Breuning (1939). The work of Yamasako & Makihara (2017), however, necessitated a review of the genus Metipocregyes, and in the course of the studies on Mesosini, taxonomic confusion was recognized between Metipocregyes and the genus Hypocacia Breuning, 1935. Our study on the genus also resulted in discovery of three unknown species from China, Laos, and Vietnam. After close examination, we concluded that they were congeneric with Metipocregyes although some features did not match the original definition of the genus. Herein, we review Metipocregyes and partly expand its definition to resolve taxonomic confusion and describe three new species from China, Laos, and Vietnam. Material and methods This study was based on dried specimens preserved in the following institutions and private collections: Bernice P. Bishop Museum, Honolulu, USA (BPBM); Ehime University Museum, Matsuyama, Japan (EUMJ); Forschungsinstitut und Naturmuseum Senckenberg, Frankfurt-am-Main, Germany (SMF); Institute of Zoology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing, China (IZAS); Muséum national d'Histoire naturelle, Paris, France (MNHN); Museum für Naturkunde, Berlin, Germany (MNHUB); National Museum of Natural Science, Taichung, Taiwan (NMNS); Osaka Museum of Natural History, Osaka, Japan (OMNH); Forestry and Forest Products Accepted by G. Nearns: 28 Nov. 2018; published: 20 Dec. 2018 503 Research Institute, Tsukuba, Japan (FFPRI); National Museum of Natural History (Smithsonian Institution), Washington, DC, USA (NMNH); and private collections of Xavier Gouverneur, Rennes, France (CXG); Carolus Holzschuh, Villach, Austria (CCH); Bin Liu, Bin Insect Taxonomy Studio, Beijing, China (BITS); Tatsuya Niisato, Tokyo, Japan (CTN); Tomáš Tichý, Ostrava, Czech Republic (CTT); Shigeo Tsuyuki, Zushi, Japan (CST); and the first author, Tsukuba, Japan (CJY). Verbatim label data are provided for the name-bearing types, of which data on each label are cited in double quotation marks (“ ”) with a slash (/) indicating the line break. The observational method, terminology, and abbreviations of the endophallus mainly follow Yamasako & Ohbayashi (2011), but petroleum jelly was used to inflate endophalli in this work. The abbreviations used in the present paper for endophallus are as follows: APH: apical phallomere; BPH: basal phallomere; CS: crescent shaped sclerites; CT: central trunk; ED: ejaculatory duct; LSp: large spicules; MPH: median phallomere; MSp: micro spicules; MT: medial tube; PB: pre-apical bulb; and SSp: small spicules. [The term “phallomer” was proposed for endophallic subdivision of Cerambycidae by Danilevsky et al. (2005), and has been followed by subsequent authors (Kasatkin, 2006; Yamasako & Ohbayashi, 2011; etc.), but it might be misspelling of “phallomere”. We therefore modified the term here.] Measurements of various body parts are coded as follows: LB = length of body, from the tip of vertex to elytral apex; LE = length of elytra, from the basal margin to the apex along suture; LG = length of gena, from the upper margin to the lower margin; LL = length of lower eye lobe, from the upper margin to the lower margin; LP = length of pronotum, from the basal to the apical margin along the suture; WB = maximum width across body; WEH = width across elytral humeri; WL = width of lower eye lobe near middle; WP = maximum width across pronotum. The number of measured specimens is shown in parentheses at the beginning of the description for each sex. Systematics Genus Metipocregyes Breuning, 1939 Metipocregyes Breuning, 1939: 429. Type species. Mesosa nodieri Pic, 1933 Redescription. Body 10.1–19.0 mm, moderate in size or relatively small among the genera of Mesosini. Eye subdivided into upper and lower lobes connected posteriorly by narrow line with/without single row of ommatidia, or deeply emarginate and the lobes connected posteriorly by 2–4 rows of ommatidia; lower lobe large, prominent, somewhat vertically long. Antennal tubercle gently elevated. Antenna moderately thick, fringed with suberect hairs beneath antennomeres, gradually sparser and shorter toward apical segment; antennomere I thick and short, subequal to or slightly shorter than antennomeres III and IV respectively, gently thickened apically, with cicatrix on apex of outer side; antennomere III slightly longer than IV. Pronotum transverse, gently swollen laterally, with/ without rudimentary projection anterolaterally, with pair of indistinct swellings on disk, weakly constricted and transversally depressed near base and apex. Prosternal process with slightly ridged lateral margins, rounded in lateral view.

  • Insect Species Described from Alfred Russel Wallace's Sarawak Collections
    Malayan Nature Journal 2006, 57(4), 433 - 462 Insect species described from Alfred Russel Wallace's Sarawak collections ANDREW POLASZEKl* and EARL OF CRANBROOK2 Abstract In just over a year spent in Sarawak (1854-1856) Wallace collected over 25,000 insect specimens; by his estimate, these represented over 5,000 species. About two-fifths of these were beetles, and over 200 of these were formally described in the 1850's and 60's, largely by 1.S. Baly and F.P. Pascoe. Nearly 400 species of moths from Wallace's Sarawak collections, including over 100 new genera, were described by Francis Walker. Fredrick Smith described 150 Hymenoptera from these collections, and taking into account Diptera and Hemiptera from the same collections, this brings the total number of insect species described to well in excess of 1,000. INTRODUCTION Alfred Russel Wallace has a reputation as an extremely prolific collector of plants and animals from many parts of the world, notably the Amazon Basin and the Malay Archipelago. His relatively brief period collecting in a geographically limited area of Sarawak on the island ofBomeo dramatically illustrates his abilities as a co llector and field taxonomist, able to recognise differences between species across a huge range of diverse insect orders. Wallace in Sarawak Alfred Russel Wallace arrived in Sarawak on 1st November 1854 and left on January 25th 1856 (Wallace, 1869). In a little more than a year, and in a rather limited geographical area of southwestern Sarawak (fig. 1), with the aid of Charles Allen and various local assistants, Wallace collected and shipped back to London more than 25,000 insect specimens.

Longhorned beetles include the family Cerambycidae, although some taxonomists treat certain subfamilies as families. In this catalog, the work of Lawrence and Newton (1995) is followed which recognizes thirteen subfamilies in the world: Oxypeltinae, Disteniinae, Philinae, Anoplodermatinae, Parandrinae, Prioninae, Spondylidinae, Vesperinae, Apatophyseinae, Necydalinae, Lepturinae, Cerambycinae and Lamiinae. There has been, and certainly will always be disagreement on the number and relationships of these subfamilies.
