The center of origin of this genus is hypothesized to be in the Iberian Peninsula. Microplate fragments drifting from the Iberian Peninsula, successive landmass suture events between the Eastern and Western Mediterranean Basins, separation of Tethys and Paratethys Oceans, re-establishment of marine connections, uplift of the Alps, and drying out of the Mediterranean are hypothesized as the principal events allowing dispersal of populations throughout Mediterranean Basin and biogeographical vicariances within the genus Amphimallon. © 2007 Elsevier B.V.

  • Phylogenetic Relationships and Distribution of the Rhizotrogini (Coleoptera, Scarabaeidae, Melolonthinae) in the West Mediterranean
    Graellsia, 59(2-3): 443-455 (2003) PHYLOGENETIC RELATIONSHIPS AND DISTRIBUTION OF THE RHIZOTROGINI (COLEOPTERA, SCARABAEIDAE, MELOLONTHINAE) IN THE WEST MEDITERRANEAN Mª. M. Coca-Abia* ABSTRACT In this paper, the West Mediterranean genera of Rhizotrogini are reviewed. Two kinds of character sets are discussed: those relative to the external morphology of the adult and those of the male and female genitalia. Genera Amadotrogus Reitter, 1902; Amphimallina Reitter, 1905; Amphimallon Berthold, 1827; Geotrogus Guérin-Méneville, 1842; Monotropus Erichson, 1847; Pseudoapeterogyna Escalera, 1914 and Rhizotrogus Berthold, 1827 are analysed: to demonstrate the monophyly of this group of genera; to asses the realtionships of these taxa; to test species transferred from Rhizotrogus to Geotrogus and Monotropus, and to describe external morphological and male and female genitalic cha- racters which distinguish each genus. Phylogenetic analysis leads to the conclusion that this group of genera is monophyletic. However, nothing can be said about internal relationships of the genera, which remain in a basal polytomy. Some of the species tranferred from Rhizotrogus are considered to be a new genus Firminus. The genera Amphimallina and Pseudoapterogyna are synonymized with Amphimallon and Geotrogus respectively. Key words: Taxonomy, nomenclature, review, Coleoptera, Scarabaeidae, Melolonthinae, Rhizotrogini, Amadotrogus, Amphimallon, Rhizotrogus, Geotrogus, Pseudoapterogyna, Firminus, Mediterranean basin.

Abstract White grub beetle, Maladera insanabilis Brenske, 1894 is collected from the flowers of some ornamental plants in different localities of Erbil governorate, Kurdistan Region-Iraq, from the period, March till July / 2018. Diagnostic characters of the species are figured, Mandibles high sclerotized, irregular shaped, apical part with seven short teeth. apical part of galea with seven well developed teeth. Antenna brown consist of 10 ending in a unilateral three lamellate club sub-equal in length. Fore tibia flattened, bidentate. Parameres is a symmetrical, the left part is hook like, the end with a curved pointed apical tooth. Key words: Maladera insanabilis Brenske, 1894, Kurdistan Region-Iraq.

Notarbartolo 54 int. 13, 90145 Palermo, Italy; e-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT All Sicilian records of the genus Pseudoapterogyna Escalera, 1914 (Coleoptera Scarabaeoidea Melolonthidae) are revised. As a result four species are reported to occur in Sicily: P. euphytus lamantiai n. ssp. (for the populations of Pantelleria Island, previously attributed to P. euphytus s.l.), P. vorax (Marseul, 1878) from Lampedusa Island, P. pellegrinensis (Brenske in Ragusa, 1893) from Western Sicily (to which all P. euphytus records from Sicily need to be attributed), and P. michaelis n. sp. from Western Sicily.

The Sicilian Pseudoapterogyna Escalera, 1914 I consider Pseudoapterogyna Escalera, 1914 as (Coleoptera Scarabaeoidea Melolonthidae) have a separate genus (according with Baraud, 1985; been attributed thus far to P. euphytus (Buquet, 1992), and not as a synonym of Geotrogus Guérin- 1840), a species deemed to occur through Algeria, Méneville, 1842, as recently proposed by Coca- Tunisia and Sicily (Rottenberg, 1871; Ragusa, Abia (2003, see also Smetana & Král, 2006). 1873; 1874; 1893; Bertolini, 1899; Heyden et al., ACRONYMS AND ABBREVIATIONS.
