Description
Holotype female. Color. Integument dark-brown; scape, pedicel, antennomeres III–V, and tarsi brown.
Head. Frons coarsely, abundantly punctate; with short, sparse, white setae, interspersed with long, sparse, yellowish setae. Area between antennal tubercles and posterior edge of upper eye lobes coarsely punctate (punctures confluent towards frons); setae as on frons. Area between upper eye lobes and anterior edge of prothorax finely, sparsely punctate, with very short, sparse white setae. Coronal suture distinct from clypeus to anterior edge of prothorax. Area behind lower eye lobes microsculptured, with long, sparse, yellowish setae close to eye. Distance between upper eye lobes, in frontal view, equal to 0.35 times length of scape; distance between lower eye lobes equal to 0.70 times length of scape. Antennae as long as 1.25 times elytral length; reaching distal sixth of elytra; scape and pedicel with short, sparse white setae, interspersed with long, yellowish setae, mainly ventrally; antennomeres III–VII with short, sparse white setae, interspersed with long, yellowish and brownish setae; antennomeres VIII–XI with short brownish setae, interspersed with long brownish setae; antennal formula based on antennomere III: scape = 0.85; pedicel = 0.26; IV = 0.79; V = 0.70; VI = 0.68; VII = 0.62; VIII = 0.56; IX = 0.53; X = 0.53; XI = 0.56.
Thorax. Prothorax cylindrical, approximately equally long as wide; lateral sides slightly rounded, without tubercles. Pronotum coarsely, moderately abundantly punctate; centrally, from base to apex, with band of white, short setae, with wide band of very sparse, white setae on each side; laterally with short, moderately abundant white setae; whole surface with long, sparse, yellowish setae. Lateral sides of prothorax with moderately sparse, white setae interspersed with long, sparse yellowish setae. Pro- and mesosternum with short, sparse, white setae interspersed with long, sparse yellowish setae. Metasternum with moderately abundant, white setae, interspersed with long, sparse, white and yellowish setae. Elytra. Moderately coarsely, abundantly punctate (punctures finer, sparser towards apex); with moderately abundant, white setae interspersed with long, yellowish setae; apices together rounded.
Abdomen. Urosternites shallowly, sparsely punctate; with sparse, white setae interspersed with long, yellowish setae; apex of urosternite V emarginate.
Legs. Femora with sparse, white setae interspersed with long, yellowish setae. Tibiae with moderately abundant, long, yellowish setae (mainly towards apex), sparse, short, white setae at base.
Dimensions in mm (female). Total length, 6.20; length of prothorax at center, 1.20; anterior width of prothorax, 1.00; posterior width of prothorax, 1.10; humeral width, 1.65; elytral length, 4.50.
Type material
Holotype female from BOLIVIA, Santa Cruz: Potrerillo del Guenda (Snake farm; 400m; 17°40'S / 63°27'W; 370–400 m), 14–16.X.2011, Skillman & Wappes col. (MNKM).
Remarks
Anobrium wappesi differs from all other species in the genus by the absence of a tubercle at the lateral sides of the prothorax. It differs from Anobrium fraterculum Galileo & Martins, 2012 by the pronotum not microsculptured (pronotum distinctly microsculptured in Anobrium fraterculum). It can be distinguished from Anobrium oberthueri Belon, 1903 by the distinctly more abundant elytral pubescence (sparser in Anobrium oberthueri), dark-brown elytra, femora, and tibiae (reddish-brown in Anobrium oberthueri), and prothorax about as long as wide (distinctly longer than wide in Anobrium oberthueri).
Although the general appearance of Anobrium wappesi be more similar to that of Anobrium fasciatum Galileo & Martins, 2002, it can be included in the alternative of couplet “7”, from Galileo and Martins (2002)[1] (translated; modified):
Note
Belon (1903)[2] described his species of Anobrium as Anobrium oberthüri. The specific epithet was emended to Anobrium oberthuri by Monné (1993)[3]. However, according to ICZN (1999: Article 32.5.2.1), the correct spelling of the name should be Anobrium oberthueri. Moreover, the species description has been cited as having been published in 1902. However, according to the Bulletin de la Société Entomologique de France, issue number 20 (“Dates d’apparition des numéros du Bulletin de 1902”), in which the species was described, was distributed on 22nd January 1903.
