The Lycocerus maculicollis subgroup of L. maculicollis group is redefined. Originally, this subgroup contains two species, L. maculicollis (Hope, 1831) and L. paviei (Bourgeois, 1890). In the present study, four previously known species, including L. nigroverticalis (Fairmaire, 1881), L. brahminicus (Gorham, 1889), L. prolongatus (Wittmer, 1995) and L. nigroverticaloides (Wittmer, 1997) are attributed to this subgroup. Meanwhile, a new species from the Hainan Island, China is described under the name of L. semicircularis sp. n. The new species, L. nigroverticalis and L. paviei are illustrated with aedeagus of the male, abdominal sternite VIII and internal genitalia of the female and or the habitus of both sexes. In addition, an identification key to the species of subgroup L. maculicollis is provided. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
