Dataset Information

Ten newly recorded species of xyleborine ambrosia beetles (Coleoptera, Curculionidae, Scolytinae, Xyleborini) from Thailand.

ABSTRACT: Ten species of ambrosia beetles of the tribe Xyleborini, Amasabeesoni (Eggers, 1930), Amasaopalescens (Schedl, 1937), Amasacylindrotomica (Schedl, 1939), Arixyleborushirsutulus Schedl, 1969, Beaveriumlatus (Eggers, 1923), Cnestusprotensus (Eggers, 1930), Coptodryasquadricostata (Schedl, 1942), Cryptoxyleborusconfusus Browne, 1950, Cryptoxyleboruspercuneolus (Schedl, 1951) and Cyclorhipidionvigilans (Schedl, 1939), are recorded here for the first time in Thailand. Diagnostic characters, illustrations, distribution and biological data are provided for each species. Xylosandrusramulorum (Schedl, 1957), stat. res. is removed from synonymy with Amasacylindrotomica and reinstated as a valid species.

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.
