description: Cleotomiroides ishikawachui Yasunaga & Duwal,
sp. nov.
(Figs 33–35, 74−76, 192–195)
Type material. HOLOTYPE: ♁, INDONESIA: JAVA: Malang, Buring, S 07°59′40.0″–42.0″ E112°39′38.0″–39.1″, 513–518 m alt., 24 Aug 2005 (afternoon), T. Ishikawa (TUAK) (AMNH _ PBI 00380631).
Differential diagnosis. Recognized by its relatively large size; fuscous basic coloration contrasting with rusty apical half of the clavus (Fig. 33); conspicuous white fascia and maculae on hemelytron (Figs 33, 35); and form of male genitalia (Figs 192−195). This new species can be distinguished from two known congeners by the fuscous general coloration, broad hypophysis of the left paramere (Fig. 193), and elongate apical appendage and spinulate flap-like process of the endosoma (Fig. 195).
Description. Male. Body generally blackish brown, relatively small, myrmecomorphic; dorsal surface weakly shining, widely shagreened or roughened, with sparsely distributed, woolly semierect setae and with more sparsely distributed, longer, upright setae (Fig. 35). Head dull brown, oblique; eyes large; vertex narrowly carinate basally. Antenna dull yellowish brown, almost linear; segment II slightly incrassate toward apex; segments III and IV brown, weakly terete. Labium shiny dark brown, reaching subapical part of mesocoxa. Pronotum with a narrow collar, narrower than all antennal segments; pleura shiny fuscous, minutely rugose; ostiolar peritreme strongly protruding medially, with ivory white posterior margin of evaporative area. Hemelytron with a white, continuous fascia posterior to scutellum across clavus, corium and exocorium (Fig. 33); apical 1/4 of corium rusty; membrane smoky brown, except for pale, translucent base. Coxae and legs brown or darker; meso- and metacoxae widely pale brown; pretarsus with rather fleshy, apically convergent parempodia (Fig. 76). Abdomen wholly dark brown, somewhat shagreened (Fig. 34). Male genitalia (Figs 192–195): Genital segment with a ventral spine (Fig. 192). Left paramere with rather stout hypophysis (Fig. 193). Phallotheca almost straight, tapered, with a spine near apex (Fig. 194). Endosoma J-shaped, stout, with an elongate apical appendage and a weakly sclerotized, rounded flap-like process beside thick-rimmed secondary gonopore (Fig. 196).
Measurements. Male (holotype): Total length of body 3.33; head width including eyes 0.72; vertex width 0.21; lengths of antennal segments I–IV 0.30, 1.07, 0.60, 0.44; total labial length 1.28; basal width of pronotum 1.02; maximum width across hemelytron 1.05; and lengths of metafemur, tibia and tarsus 1.14, 1.70, 0.30.
Female. Unknown.
Etymology. Named after a Japanese heteropterist, Dr. Tadashi (nickname Chu) Ishikawa who collected the holotype specimen of this new species; a noun in genitive case.
Biology. Unknown; Dr. Ishikawa collected the holotype female by sweep-netting an unidentified broadleaf tree.
Distribution. Indonesia: Java (this paper).
