Popis: Nothoodes gen. n. Type species: Oodes angustatus Lorenz, 1998, by present designation. Oodes angustatus Lorenz is a replacement name for O. parallelus LaFerté- Sénectère, 1851. The latter name is a junior primary homonym of O. parallelus Say, 1830 and thus invalid according to Article 57.2. (ICZN 1999). Diagnosis. The species of this genus share the following character states: (1) Submentum with medial and lateral setiferous punctures; (2) Pronotum with basal setiferous punctures; (3) Abdominal ventrite 3 with ambulatory setae; (4) Male protarsomere 3 subtrapezoidal, with sides constricted distally; (5) Basal bulb of median lobe of aedeagus open dorsally, without apical aileron; (6) Spermathecal complex with extraordinarily short seminal canal. Description. Microsculpture and micropunctuation. Dorsal surface of head, pronotum and elytra with regular micropunctuation and isodiametric meshes well-impressed which together form “punctate rosettes” microreticulation, micropunctuation larger, denser and more regular on head than on pronotum and elytra; ventral surface without regular micropunctuation, with obliterated sculpticells (sometimes meso- and metacoxae, as well as metasternum with distinct microreticulation). Chaetotaxy. Labrum with six more or less equidistant setae, with two lateral being slightly remote from medial four. Clypeal setae present. Anterior supraorbital seta absent. Ventral seta of antennomere 2 located in apical half. Anterior seta of stipes present. Setae on apical margin of ligula distant. Penultimate labial palpomere glabrous. Parascutellar seta on elytron present. Elytral interval 3 with two discal setiferous punctures situated closer to stria 2, first in medial third, second in posterior third. Mesocoxa with lateral and posterior setae; mesotrochanter with one seta. Hind femur without posterior setae. Last visible sternite with two apical punctures in male and four in female. Basal gonocoxite with lateroapical setae, without medioapical setae. Apical gonocoxite with one to two very small dorsolateral ensiform setae; dorsomedial ensiform seta present, located near base or near middle; nematiform setae present, located near apex or removed medially from it. Head. Eye large (vertical diameter greater than length of antennomere 1), prominent. Anterior margin of labrum straight or slightly emarginate. Antenna long, with last two segments exceeding pronotal base. Mandibles large, convex. Last two maxillary palpomeres of subequal length. Paraglossa long, not expanded. Thorax. Pronotum with anterior angles slightly (most species) to moderately projected anteriorly (N. taprobanae). Prosternal process round or subelongate, distinctly bordered subapically, superficially bordered or unbordered at apex. Mesosternum deeply concave; mesepisternum without apodemal pit; mesocoxal rim entire. Elytra. Parascutellar striola more or less distinct, situated between suture and stria 1; stria 7 as distinct as medial striae. Granulation in marginal furrow continuous or discontinuous. Legs. Metacoxal basal sulcus well-developed, extending to lateral fourth. Male mesotibia moderately modified, with a swelling in apical half or apical two-thirds (swelling best seen from above). Meso- and metatarsomeres 1–4 in both sexes as well as protarsomeres 1–4 in female without long and dense pubescence on ventral surface. Male front tarsomeres 1–3 with numerous adhesive setae beneath; adhesive setae covering apical three-fourths of tarsomere 1. Male genitalia. Basal bulb of median lobe more or less reduced at base, open dorsally. Ostium long, nearly reaching basal bulb. Internal sac with two connected sclerites more or less chitinized, a smaller proximal one and a broader distal one (sclerites best seen from ventral side). Female genitalia. Apical gonocoxite sub-triangular or elongate. Bursa copulatrix subconical or globe-shaped; spermatheca very short, undifferentiated (seminal canal), with spermathecal gland attached; common oviduct with villous canal. Monophyly and relationships. The presence of the following two synapomorphies among species of Nothoodes suggests that the group is monophyletic: (1) basal bulb of median lobe open dorsally (state unknown in N. taprobanae); and (2) unusually short spermatheca (state unknown in N. longus). The open dorsally basal bulb is a well-known special feature for some Oodini. The dorsal part of the basal bulb is more or less wide open between the two lateral lobes, which turn into free lamellae (since the ventral part of the bulb is always occupied by the basal orifice of median lobe). Thus, the basal orifice of median lobe is extended to dorsal part of the basal bulb. This trait has been considered unique for subtribe Sphaerodina Jeannel, 1949 (Jeannel 1949; Basilewsky 1953; Guéorguiev & Schmidt 2016), but present data suggest that it may be homoplastic in Oodini. Excluding N. longus whose female specimens have not been studied, the other species have extraordinarily short seminal canals, represented by a tiny appendage of the bursa copulatrix. This structure seems to be the result of a long-term trend toward shortening of the seminal canal, and this reduction does not affect the spermathecal gland. A somewhat similar design of spermatheca exists in species from Anatrichis LeConte, 1853, and Oodinus Motschulsky, 1864 (Bousquet 1996; Guéorguiev & Morita 2017), two genera supposedly of Gondwanaland descent (Spence 1983: 575). However, the species of both aforementioned genera have spermatheca without seminal canal and spermathecal gland directly attached to basal swelling (in Anatrichis) or bag-like structure (in Oodinus), both structures representing distal enlargements of bursa copulatrix (Bousquet 1996: 456, 530–531, figs 125, 126, 128, 129). Another likely innovative character for the taxa of Nothoodes is the sexual dimorphism (see following section); such peculiarity has not been observed in species from the other three genera studied. External sexual dimorphism. Sexual dimorphism in N. angustatus and N. bharat was established as a phenotypic difference expressed by EL/EW. To ascertain this, we measured six males and ten females of the first species and two males and two females of the second (Table 5). The respective values for the ratio in question are 1.50–1.58 (♂♂) and 1.40–1.48 (♀♀) for N. angustatus and 1.50–1.52 (♂♂) and 1.43–1.47 (♀♀) for N. bharat. The smaller proportions of EL/EW in the females of both species indicate their shorter and wider elytra compared to the elytra of males. Whether individuals of N. longus and N. taprobanae exhibit the same dimorphism is unknown for the lack of specimens available for measurement. The males and females in N. angustatus are further distinguished by PW / PL, 1.49–1.54 (♂♂) and 1.55–1.62 (♀♀). The wider pronotum in the females may be in connection with their wider elytra that relate to their reproductive function. Etymology. A compound name, which applies to the Greek stem νóθος [nóthos] (spurious, unauthentic) and genus name Oodes also of Greek origin. It is treated as a Latin masculine. Geographical distribution and diversity. The group includes four species: N. angustatus, N. taprobanae, N. longus, and N. bharat. The species are endemic to the Indian subcontinent, a region geologically connected to the former supercontinent Gondwanaland in the Cretaceous period. It is worth noting that the generic range of Nothoodes does not overlap with those of other genera from the Oodes generic group. Only N. longus and Pseudoodes cribristernis live close to each other in the Kra Isthmus, southern Myanmar. 20. Nothoodes angustatus (Lorenz, 1998), comb. n.

TGE: 2♂♂, 1♀. Diagnosis. This species is easily differentiated from its congeners by its large size, 15 mm or more, the specific form of the median lobe (Figs 28A, B, C, D), and W/Lp2>1.5. Description. Habitus. Large-sized specimens (BL: 15.1–16.6 mm, BW: 5.65–6.70 mm), with elongate and moderately convex body (Figs 27A, G). Ratios and measurements. See Table 5. Color and luster. Body dorsally black, ventrally dark brown to black, surface markedly shiny, without iridescence. Antennomere 1 and medial parts of antennomeres 2 and 3 piceous, marginal part of last two antennomeres and 4–11 fulvous to rufous. Palpi rufopiceous with extremities paler. Legs rufous to rufopiceous. Punctuation. Dorsal surface without punctuation; proepisternum with dense and shallow punctures, meso- and metepisternum, sides of metasternum and ventrite 1 at base with dense and coarse punctures; abdominal ventrites more or less punctured and wrinkled at sides. Head. Relatively large, more than half the width of pronotum (Table 5). Mentum tooth rounded apically, with distinct paramedial border (Fig. 27B). Thorax. Pronotum with sides slightly rounded toward posterior angles; maximum width very close to posterior angles; disc without laterobasal impressions; base moderately sinuate. Prosternum with deep median longitudinal sulcus; prosternal process subelongate, bordered laterally and subapically, unbordered at apex (Fig. 27D). Metepisternum elongate (MA/ MM: 0.84–0.91), its coadunation with epipleuron short, located anteriorly (Fig. 27E). Elytra. Apical sinuation slightly distinct. Basal margin distinct laterally, forming a minute denticle at shoulder, disappearing medially at level between striae 2 and 3.Granulation in marginal furrow continuous. Parascutellar striola well developed, long, finely punctate; striae 1–6 less impressed than stria 7. Intervals 1–7 rather flat, interval 8 moderately convex. Legs. Male mesotibia with a swelling in apical two-thirds. Protarsomeres 1–3 of male strongly dilated (W/Lp2: 1.55–1.76). Male genitalia. Median lobe (Figs 28A, B, C, D) with basal bulb long, cylindrical, and moderately open dorsally; angle between basal bulb and shaft nearly right; shaft swollen anteriorly (lateral view); apex curved ventrally; apical lamella straight, wide, subtriangular, rounded at tip; ostium long, nearly reaching basal bulb; internal sac with a smaller proximal sclerite situated in medial third and a large, compound distal one in apical half. Female genitalia. Apical gonocoxite stout, sub-triangular, with dorsomedial ensiform seta located equidistant from base and middle and nematiform setae removed from apex (Fig. 28E). Bursa copulatrix subconical; spermathecal gland connected at apex of seminal canal (Fig. 28F). Distribution. Nepal, India, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Myanmar,? Malaysia (‘Malacca’). According to Andrewes (1930) and Saha & Halder (2000), the species occurs in the Indian states of Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Meghalaya (Khasi Hills), and Karnataka. The record for ‘Malacca’ (Chaudoir 1882; Andrewes 1930, 1940; Csiki 1931) is highly doubtful (see “Notes”). First record for Nepal. Bionomics. Nothing is known about the bionomics of N. angustatus. Notes. Specimen cited as [Oodes] indicus by Chaudoir (1882) has been examined and found to belong to N. angustatus (see “Material examined”). The name Oodes indicus is a nomen nudum. We have also studied the material published as ‘? Oodes parallelus ’ by Bates (1892: 323). It is a female specimen representing the species dealt with here. Most likely the citation of the female specimen identified as “ Oodes parallelus LaFerté-Sénectère ” from ‘Malacca’ (Chaudoir 1882: 348) refers to the holotype of Oodes subcoriaceus Chaudoir, 1882. Two specimens collected near Dwarakapuram Village, Andhra Pradesh, India, were collected together with a paratype of O. bharat indicating that the two Nothoodes species live together. 21. Nothoodes bharat sp. n. (Figs 29 A–G, Figs 30 A–G, Table 5) Type material. Holotype ♂, ‘ 2014–VIII–15 INDIA, Andhra Pradesh, Nellore District, Naidupet mandal, Dwarakapuram vill. Chen C.C. lgt.
