description: <i>Teispes insularis</i> (Hope, 1842) (Figs. 13 D–F, 15A, 15P, 18C) <i>Mallodon insulare</i> Hope, 1842: 428. TL: Port Essington, Northern Territory. Type in HEC (not examined). <i>Teispes dorsalis</i> Thomson, 1864: 305. TL: Australia. Holotype in MNHN (examined). <i>Teispes insulare</i>: Blackburn 1892. <i>Teispes insularis</i>: Lameere, 1903 a, 1913, 1919; McKeown, 1947. <b> <i>Diagnosis</i>.</b> This species is morphologically similar to <i>Cryptipus</i> and some species of <i>Eurynassa</i>. It can be separated from <i>C. frenchi</i> by having pronotum length only about 0.4 times of its width, the elytral surface with irregular coriaceous punctures and the tarsomere 3 moderately lobed. Male <i>T. insularis</i> can be separated from <i>Eurynassa</i> species by having abdomen smooth and shiny, without fine deep punctures; while the female can be separated from <i>Eurynassa</i> species by having strongly restricted mentum, not visible ventrally and the ovipositor with longer and larger styli. <b> <i>Type</i>.</b> <i>Teispes dorsalis</i> Thomson. Holotype male in MNHN, with the following labels “ Teispes Thoms., s.c.304, (Nom pr.) | dorsalis thoms. Type.305, Austr. bor. | Museum Paris Coll. J. Thomson, 1952 | Th. TYPE ”. <i>Material examined</i> (Fig. 18C). <b>Northern Territory: AM</b> (4 <b>&amp;male;&amp;male;</b>; 2 <b>&amp;female;&amp;female;</b>): 5: Yirrkala, W.S. Chaseling; E. Alligator Riv., Oenpelli, Sep. 1948, J.E. Bray; <b>ANIC</b> (1 <b>&amp;female;</b>): Baroalba Creek Springs, 19km NE by E of Mt. Cahill, Oct. 1972, M.S. Upton. <b>Western Australia: RDKC</b> (1 <b>&amp;male;</b>): Weelarrana, Oct. 1996, D. Knowles. <b> <i>Molecular data</i>.</b> BioSample ID: SAMN11080880, SAMN12650055.
