description: Komiyandra koni sp. nov.   
(Fig. 67, 68, 114, 189, 190, 256, 297, 323, 469-472)  
 Etymology. Dedicated to Dr. Masahiro Kon of the University of Shiga Prefecture, Japan, for collecting and providing specimens used in this work.   
 Type material. Holotype M (ex-Collection R. Oberthür), INDONESIA, West Kalimantan: Pontianak, 1901, (no collector indicated) (MNHN). Paratypes (3 M, 2 F), as follows: Malaysia, Sabah: Crocker Range (1100 m), M, V.4.1994, Chew leg. (MZSP); (near Keningau), F, VI.1999, local collector (KMCT); (1000- 1400 m; near Keningau), F, VI.26.1988, [no collector indicated] (DHCO); Mount Trus Madi, M, VI.18.1994, Chew coll. (KMCT); Kimanis Road (near Keningau), M, V.25.1994, [no collector indicated] (ZKCO).   
 Description. Integument shining, dark-brown; parts of head, mandibles, margins of pronotum, epipleura, elytral suture, and parts of legs blackish.   
Male (Fig. 469). Dorsal surface of head, on gibbosities, coarsely and abundantly punctate; area between gibbosities and occiput coarsely and somewhat sparser than on gibbosities; area between gibbosities and ocular carina strongly depressed, coarsely punctate (mainly towards the clypeus); area behind eyes coarsely and moderately sparsely punctate; ocular carina elevated, bifurcated in “Y” near posterior edge of eyes (Fig. 469). Eyes narrow (Fig. 114); posterior ocular edge (Fig. 469) very distinct. Central area of clypeus oblique close to front. Central projection of labrum (Fig. 67) wide and truncate at apex. Submentum moderately depressed; punctation coarse, well defined and more abundant toward mentum; pilosity moderately long, sparse; anterior margin wide and elevated throughout (somewhat depressed at middle). Mandibles shorter than head; teeth of inner margin (Fig. 189) placed around middle. Ventral sensorial area of antennomeres III-XI not visible from side, and not divided by carina (Fig. 256).  
Pronotum finely, sparsely punctate on disc, and distinctly coarser laterally; anterior angles not projected forward, rounded; lateral angles just indicated; posterior angles well marked; anterior edge (Fig. 469) barely sinuous. Elytra coarsely and abundantly punctate (punctures finer at apical third and at anterior two-thirds near suture); each elytron with two vague carinae. Metasternum with punctures coarse and moderately abundant laterally, finer and sparser toward metasternal suture. Metafemur (Fig. 470) moderately elongated. Dorsal surface of metatibiae flat. Metatarsomere V (without claws) as long as I-III together (Fig. 297).  
Female (Fig. 472). Central projection of labrum (Fig. 68) somewhat wide and subtruncate at apex. Mandibles (Fig. 68).  
 Variability. Integument from pale-brown to dark-brown; punctation on the gibbosities of dorsal face of head moderately sparse; area between the gibbosities of dorsal face of head and ocular carina almost impunctate; bifurcation of ocular carina slightly indicated; elytra coarsely and abundantly punctate in basal two-thirds including area near suture.   
 Dimensions in mm (M / F). Total length (including mandibles), 15.1-21.9/19.0-20.3; prothorax: length, 3.2-4.5/3.7-4.1; anterior width, 3.9-5.4/4.4-4.7; posterior width, 3.3-4.2/4.0-4.3; humeral width, 3.8-5.9/ 5.0-5.6; elytral length, 9.1-11.9/11.7-12.7.   
 Comments. Komiyandra koni is similar to K. philippinensis (Fig. 431), but differs by the: head somewhat elongated behind eyes (Fig. 469); pronotum and elytra slightly flatter (Fig. 471); urosternites more distinctly punctate (Fig. 479). In K. philippinensis, head is not elongated behind eyes (Fig. 453), pronotum and elytra are more convex (Fig. 433), and urosternites are less distinctly punctate (Fig. 432). It differs from K. javana (Fig. 419), K. mehli (Fig. 438), and K. sangihe (Fig. 456), among others differences, by urosternites more distinctly punctate. From K. drumonti (Fig. 465), it differs by the body less depressed (Fig. 471), and by the bifurcation of ocular carina less marked. From K. mindoro (Fig. 458), it differs by the body more depressed, by the integument less dark, and by bifurcation of ocular carina less marked. Differs from K. niisatoi (Fig. 460) by body somewhat more depressed and by antennomeres larger. Differs from K. lombokia (Fig. 442) by elytra distinctly more strongly punctate. From K. irianjayana (Fig. 290), it differs by metatarsomere I not enlarged (Fig. 297), by the pronotum less strongly punctate close to anterior angles, and by body slightly more depressed. Differs from K. mindanao (Fig. 435) by body more depressed, and by metafemur slender and longer. From K. menieri (Fig. 450) differs by body more depressed, by antennomeres larger, and by pronotum less punctate laterally. From K. formosana (Fig. 413) it differs by metatarsomere V narrowed at basal half (dorsal view). From K. shibatai (Fig. 410) it differs by two-thirds of the lateral margins of the pronotum parallel. Differs from K. lanyuana (Fig. 416) by tibia more distinctly sulcate laterally, and by body more depressed. Finally, it differs from K. uenoi (Fig. 478) by body more depressed, and by metatibiae more distinctly sulcated laterally.
