Distribution. India and southern China to the Philippines (Moseyko 2014). With the transfer of T. foveipennis to Gressittella (see below), there is no known species of Bathseba in New Guinea, as given by Moseyko (2014). Generic diagnosis. Body oblong, moderately convex; anterior margin of lateral arms of prosternum strongly convex; compound eyes sinuate at inner side, vertex sulcate above eyes; antennae subfiliform; pronotum broader than long, narrower than elytra with sides entire and rounded; elytra punctate striate; all femora toothed, tooth on anterior femora very prominent and triangular, intermediate and posterior tibiae emarginated preapically without apical tibial spurs; claws bifid. Remarks. Medvedev (2006) redescribed and figured the claw of B. ferruginosa as simple. However, on examination of the type specimen, it was observed that there is indeed a shorter and narrower inner lobe of claw as in a few other species of Tricliona. In the Sri Lankan species of Bathseba, including a few undescribed ones, the inner lobe of claw is shorter. Evidently the development of the inner lobe of the claw is variable and cannot be used to reliably separate these genera. Apart from this, there is no character to reliably separate Tricliona from Bathseba. Genera closely related to Bathseba are Rhyparida Baly, 1861 and Cleoporus Lefèvre, 1884. Rhyparida is an Australian and Indo-Malayan genus. Bathseba and Cleoporus are Oriental. All the three belong to the Tribe Typophorini. Bathseba and Rhyparida differ from each other in the following characters: lateral arms of prosternum convex in Bathseba and concave in Rhyparida; Bathseba has a very large tooth on profemora while Rhyparida has a small tooth or no tooth anteriorly on profemora. Cleoporus has a minute or lacks tooth on profemora, while in Bathseba, the teeth on profemora are well developed. In Cleoporus, the lateral margins of pronotum and elytra are deflexed or not visible from above and the ocular sulci are very broad, while in Bathseba, the lateral margins of pronotum and elytra are visible from above and the ocular sulci are narrow. These characters are variable with in genera. Currently there are 43 named species of Bathseba (see checklist below). Material examined. Types. Lectotype (Figs 1 a ─f).

Legs long, femur dilated medially with anterior femora strongly dentate, mid- and hindfemur weakly dentate, tibia longitudinally carinate on all sides with row of setae on either side of carina; tarsomeres ventrally fringed with diverse forms of setae. Probasitarsomere and mesobasitarsomere in males ventrally with closely arranged capitate setae bordered by long pointed setae.All basitarsomeres ventrally in females and metabasitarsomere in males fringed with only pointed setae, second tarsomere with pointed setae, and bilobed third tarsomere with variously shaped setae including triangular, inverted arrowhead-shaped, pointed or truncate.

Remarks. Bathseba syzygium n. sp. closely resembles Bathseba bifasciata (Jacoby, 1895). The new species can be differentiated from the latter by the orbital sulcus with subacutely angulate dorsal margin above supraorbital pore (Fig. 2d) (in B. bifasciata, orbital sulcus with evenly rounded dorsal margin; Fig. 5d). Compound eyes are comparatively larger and legs are comparatively longer in the new species, compared to those in B. bifasciata. Anterior half of vertex is narrower in the new species than in B. bifasciata. The aedeagus is shorter with lateral margins subparallel in the new species where as in B. bifasciata, it is longer and gently narrowed in the middle. Spermatheca of the new species has pump longer than the receptacle (in B. bifasciata, pump is shorter than the receptacle). Another species closely similar to B. syzygium n. sp. is B. inconspicua (Jacoby, 1908) where the anterior portion of vertex is narrower than that in B. syzygium n. sp. Pronotum is more weakly punctured in B. syzygium n. sp. while the same is almost impunctate in B. inconspicua. Preapical line of pygidium is placed far from the apical edge in B. bifasciata (Fig. 4f) whereas in B. syzygium n. sp., preapical line is near to apical edge (Fig. 4e). Prepical line is weakly wavy in B syzygium n. sp., however, it is convex in B. bifasciata. Yellow forms of Bathseba variegata (Jacoby) n. comb. superficially resemble similarly colored specimens of B. syzygium n. sp. and both species exhibit considerable variation in color. However, they can be easily separated by the elytra widest near humerus in dorsal view in B. variegata, while the same is widest in middle in B. syzygium n. sp. In the new species, all elytral puncture rows are regular in posterior 1/3, while at least the sixth row is confused in B. variegata. Etymology.
