description: Komiyandra poggii sp. nov.   
(Fig. 70, 71, 116, 192, 193, 255, 298, 323, 475-477)  
 Etymology. Dedicated to Dr. Roberto Poggi (MCGD), for his assistance and the loan of material for this study, especially the syntype female of Parandra janus.   
 Type material. Holotype M from INDONESIA, Sumatra (Province of North Sumatra): Sikulikap Waterfall, III.25.1997, Y. Johki and K. Araya coll.. (MZBI). Paratype F, same data as holotype (KMCT).   
 Description. Integument shining, dark-brown; mandibles, parts of head, parts of legs and pronotal edges blackish.   
Male (Fig. 475). Head wide; dorsal surface, on gibbosities, moderately coarsely punctate; area between gibbosities and occiput with fine and somewhat sparse punctures, and a large and smooth area below each gibbosity; frontal gibbosities well marked, separated by deep and wide furrow; area between gibbosities and ocular carina smooth and depressed, but with some punctures near clypeus; ocular carina elevated, distinctly bifurcated in “Y” near posterior edge of eyes (Fig. 475); area behind bifurcation of ocular carina with punctures coarse, abundant and anastomosed; area behind eyes smooth close to ocular edge and sparsely and coarsely punctate towards occiput. Eyes (Fig. 116) narrow; posterior ocular edge (Fig. 475) distinct. Central area of clypeus oblique close to front. Central area of labrum distinctly tumid and with tuberculiform process frontally; central projection of labrum (Fig. 70) wide, truncate and not notably projected at apex, that is strongly lowered, or situated at a lower elevation than the rest of the labrum. Submentum barely depressed, with moderately large, abundant punctures; margin close to mentum moderately wide and elevated; pilosity sparse. Teeth of inner margin of mandibles (Fig. 192) placed at middle, together projected; area latero-dorsal between middle of dorsal carina and apex almost flat. Ventral sensorial area of antennomeres III-XI not divided by carina and not visible from the side (Fig. 255).  
Pronotum coarsely and somewhat abundantly punctate at sides (mainly at anterior half); center of disc finely, sparsely punctate; anterior edge (Fig. 475) not sinuous; anterior angles feebly projected forward; lateral angles barely marked; posterior angles marked. Elytra coarsely and abundantly punctate, more sparsely around scutellum; each elytron with two carinae not well marked. Metasternum coarsely punctate laterally. Metafemur (Fig. 476) elongate. Dorsal face of metatibiae rounded at base and gradually leveled towards apex. Metatarsomere V (Fig. 298) as long as I-III together.  
Female (Fig. 477). Central projection of labrum (Fig. 71) narrow and truncate. Ocular carina not bifurcated. Ventral sensorial area of antennomeres III-XI and submentum as in male. Mandibles (Fig. 193) with dorsal carina distinct only at basal third.  
 Dimensions in mm (M). Total length (including mandibles), 19.1; prothorax: length, 3.9; anterior width, 5.0; posterior width, 4.1; humeral width, 5.2; elytral length, 11.1. The paratype female was not measured because it is severely damaged and deformed.   
 Comments. Male of K. poggii differs from male K. javana (Fig. 419) by the: central area of labrum distinctly tumid and with tuberculiform process frontally; central projection of labrum not notably projected at apex, and strongly lowered (Fig. 70). In male of K. javana, the central area of labrum is not tumid and without tuberculiform process, and the central projection of labrum (Fig. 38) is distinctly projected at apex, and is not lowered.   
 The form of the labrum differentiates K. poggii from all other species of the genus.
