description: <i>Chrysolina</i> (<i>Chalcoidea</i>) <i>sanguineocincta pinarbasiense</i> subsp. nov. (Figs. 1-6) <b>Material.</b> Holotype: &amp;male;, Turkey: Kayseri prov.: P&amp;imath;narba&amp;scedil;&amp;imath;, K&amp;imath;l&amp;imath;çk&amp;imath;&amp;scedil;la, 38 o 39’48” N 36 o 12’37” E, 05.VI.2018, 1433 m (leg. D. Coral &amp;Scedil;ahin and N. Bal). Paratype: &amp;male;, Turkey: Kayseri prov.: P&amp;imath;narba&amp;scedil;&amp;imath;, K&amp;imath;l&amp;imath;çk&amp;imath;&amp;scedil;la, 38 o 39’48” N 36 o 12’37” E, 05. VI.2018, 1433 m (leg. D. Coral &amp;Scedil;ahin and N. Bal). Paratype: &amp;male;, Turkey: Aksaray prov.: Koca&amp;scedil;, 11. V.2007, (leg. E. Koçak). Paratype: &amp;male;, Turkey: Afyonkarahisar prov.: Emirda&amp;gbreve;, 10. VI.1998, (leg. M. Özdemir). <b>Male</b> (holotype). Length of body 5.75 mm, width 3.25 mm. <b>Male</b> (paratype). Length of body 6.50 mm, width 3.75 mm. This new subspecies differs from the nominotypical one and the other one body length and aedeagal characters chiefly (Figs. 3-6). The new subspecies is relatively small one than the others. According to Warchalowski (2010), body length is about 7.0 mm in the subspecies <i>Chrysolina sanguineocincta sanguineocincta</i> (Crotch, 1871) and <i>Chrysolina sanguineocincta bodemeyeri</i> (Weise, 1910). Body length is 5.75-6.50 mm in the new subspecies. In dorsal and ventral view, apex of aedeagus is suddenly narrowed. Narrowed apical part of aedeagus is relatively elongated in <i>Chrysolina marginata</i> (Linnaeus, 1758) while narrowed apical part of aedeagus is moderately long and relatively shorter in <i>Chrysolina sangineocincta</i> (Crotch, 1871). In the new subspecies, aedeagus is stouter than the other two subspecies of <i>Chrysolina sanguineocincta</i> (Crotch, 1871) in general view. Sudden narrowing before the apical part is the most sharp, so that a prominent shoulder-like structure is formed on both sides in the new subspecies. This character is much weaker in <i>Chrysolina sanguineocincta sanguineocincta</i> (Crotch, 1871) and it is rounded in <i>Chrysolina sanguineocincta bodemeyeri</i> (Weise, 1910), so does not exist (Fig. 5). <b>Female:</b> Unknown. <b>Distribution:</b> The new subspecies is known only from Kayseri province (P&amp;imath;narba&amp;scedil;&amp;imath;: K&amp;imath;l&amp;imath;çk&amp;imath;&amp;scedil;la), Aksaray province (Koca&amp;scedil;) in Central Anatolian region of Turkey and Afyonkarahisar province (Emirda&amp;gbreve;) in Aegean region of Turkey. For the time being, the subspecies is endemic to the Turkey. <b>Etymology:</b> Named after locus typicus, P&amp;imath;narba&amp;scedil;&amp;imath; county in Kayseri province.
