Agrilus auroapicalis Tôyama, 1985 – Wikispecies link – Pensoft Profile
- Agrilus ishigakianus Tôyama, 1985 (Agrilus; subspecies of auroapicalis) Tôyama 1985a[1]: 33-34 (description) – Hirashima 1989[2]: 322 (subspecies of auroapicalis; checklist; Japan) – Morimoto and Tadauchi 1995[3]: 231 (subspecies of auroapicalis; checklist; Japan) – Akiyama and Ohmomo 1997[4]: 30 (subspecies of auroapicalis; checklist; Japan: Ryukyus (Ishigaki-jima I.)) – Jendek 2006[5]: 396 (subspecies of auroapicalis; Palaearctic catalog) – Bellamy 2008[6]: 1985 (subspecies of auroapicalis; world catalog) – Fukutomi and Kurihara 2011[7]: 27 (subspecies of auroapicalis; faunal record; biology; Ryukyu islands).
Type material
Agrilus auroapicalis ishigakianus Tôyama, 1985. Type locality. Mt. Omotodake, Ishigaki-jima Isl. Types not examined. See Remarks. Described from 3 specimens (holotype, alotype, paratype).
Diagnosis
Size 6.1 mm; it can be distinguished from Agrilus auroapicalis auroapicalis by having the body smaller, less produced apically; by the golden-brown dorsal color; by the ornamental elytral pubescence more extensive mostly along the suture and by having the color of elytral apices less contrasting to that of the nominal subspecies. See also Appendix.
Additional material
JAPAN: Ryukyu islands: 1 ♂ (EJCB): “1996.4.19, Ishigaki Is., Okinawa, Ryukyu, K. Takahashi leg.”.
Host plant
Euodia meliifolia: Fukutomi and Kurihara (2011)[7].
Distribution
JAPAN: Ryukyu islands (Okinawa incl.).
Remarks
The type specimens of this taxon were not studied; they should be preserved in NSMT as stated by Tôyama (1985a)[1]. The taxonomic concept was judged from the specimen determined by S. Ohmomo.
