New holarctic species of Ceutorhynchinae (Coleoptera: Curculionidae).

Abstract

The following new species of Ceutorhynchinae are described: Ceutorhynchus excelsus sp. n. from China (Sichuan); C. francisci sp. n. from Turkey; C. magnisinus sp. n. from Texas; C. montanus sp. n. from Bulgaria; C. zonatus sp. n. from Mexico; Coeliodes caucasius sp. n. from Armenia and Gruziya; C. jelineki sp. n. from southwestern Iran; Glocianus superstes sp. n. from Greece; Pericartius flavisquamis sp. n. from Algeria; Thamiocolus comptus sp. n. from Turkey; T. phaleratus sp. n. from Turkmenia; and T. roessleri sp. n. from northern Italy. The following new synonymies are proposed: Hypohypurus Hustache, 1920 (= Orientohypurus Korotyaev, 1981; syn. n., = Hemilioxyonyx Colonnelli, 1984; syn. n.); Hypohypurus testaceirostris Hustache, 1930 (= Lioxyonyx sibitiensis Hoffmann, 1968; syn. n.); Hypurus bertrandi (Perris, 1852) (= Ceutorhynchus oleraceae Marshall, 1935; syn. n.). New combination are: Hypohypurus medvedevi (Korotyaev, 1981), H. minor (Korotyaev, 1981), H. ponomarenkoi (Korotyaev, 1981) and H. simplicipes (Korotyaev, 1981) (all comb. n. from Orientohypurus); Hypurus hovanus (Dalla Torre & Hustache, 1930), H. litoralis (Colonnelli, 1979), H. madagascariensis (Hustache, 1920), H. madecassus (Hustache, 1920) (all comb. n. from Hypohypurus), Hypurus portulacae (Marshall, 1916) (comb. n. from Ceutorhynchus); Pericartius abyssinicus (Hustache, 1934), P. aequatorialis (Hustache, 1934), P. amaranthi (Voss, 1963) (all comb. n. from Hypohypurus). Hypohypurus perrieri Hustache, 1920 is selected as the type species of Hypohypurus Hustache, 1920. A Lectotype is designated for Thamiocolus hexatomus (Penecke, 1922), stat. n., which is raised to species rank. The name of the tribe Lioxyonychini Colonnelli, 1984 is emended. A key to the genera of Hypurini is included.
