Revision of the genus Phloeoditica Schedl - with description of two new genera and two new species in Phloeosinini (Coleoptera, Curculionidae, Scolytinae).

ABSTRACT: The genus Phloeoditica Schedl currently includes four species from Southeast Asia. These species vary substantially in important morphological characters and indicate the existence of multiple genera for these species. A revision based on morphological and in part molecular data resulted in the transfer of Phloeoditica setosa to Pseudoxylechinus the erection of a new genus Asiophilus for Phloeoditica phloeosinoides and a new species Asiophilus macropunctatus from Vietnam. Another new genus with affinities to Phloeoditica is described based on the new species Microditica uniseriata from Thailand. The new genera are included in a revised key to the tribe Phloeosinini.

(Ecuador), C. leeloo sp. nov. (Ecuador), C. leia sp. nov. (Ecuador, Suriname), C. leporinus sp. nov. (Peru), C. martinezae sp. nov. (Ecuador), C. murinus sp. nov. (Ecuador), C. newt sp. nov. (Peru), C. osbornae sp. nov. (Ecuador), C. panosus sp. nov. (French Guiana), C. papillicauda sp. nov. (Suriname), C. pilisoror sp. nov. (Ecuador), C. ripley sp. nov. (Ecuador), C. sagitticauda sp. nov. (Guyana), C. sarahconnor sp. nov. (Brazil), C. scully sp. nov. (Ecuador), C. sicula sp. nov. (Ecuador), C. sororcula sp. nov. (Peru), C. starbuck sp. nov. (Ecuador), C. trinity sp. nov. (Brazil), C. uhura sp. nov. (Peru), C. vasquez sp. nov. (Panama), C. vrataski sp. nov. (Brazil), and C. yar sp. nov. (Ecuador). Seventeen new combinations are given: Coptoborus amazonicus (Petrov, 2020) comb. nov., C. atlanticus (Bright & Torres, 2006) comb. nov., C. bellus Bright & Torres, 2006 comb. nov., C. coartatus (Sampson, 1921) comb. nov., C. crinitulus (Wood, 1974) comb. nov., C. exilis (Schedl, 1934) comb. nov., C. incultus (Wood, 1975) comb. nov., C. magnus (Petrov, 2020) comb. nov., C. micarius (Wood, 1974) comb. nov., C. obtusicornis (Schedl, 1976) comb. nov., C. paurus (Wood, 2007) comb. nov., C. pristis (Wood, 1974) comb. nov., C. pseudotenuis (Schedl, 1936) comb. nov., C. puertoricensis (Bright & Torres, 2006) comb. nov., C. ricini (Eggers, 1932) comb. nov., C. semicostatus (Schedl, 1948) comb. nov., C. tristiculus (Wood, 1975) comb. nov., and C. villosulus (Blandford, 1898) comb. nov. Two new synonyms are proposed: Coptoborus Hopkins, 1915 (= Theoborus Hopkins, 1915 syn. nov.) and Coptoborus villosulus (Blandford, 1898) (= Theoborus theobromae Hopkins, 1915 syn. nov.). Xyleborus neosphenos Schedl, 1976 comb. res. is removed from Coptoborus. The revised genus now contains 77 species and a key to their identification is provided.
