Name
Tobochares communis species group – Wikispecies link – Pensoft Profile
Diagnosis
The Tobochares communis species group can be recognized by the straight anterior margin of the eye in lateral view (e.g., Fig. 2E), the usually longitudinally aligned elytral punctures, the short and narrow glabrous patch on the metaventrite (Fig. 3D, E), the high density of the hydrofuge pubescence on the abdominal ventrites, and the well-developed and numerous metatibial spines.
