Odontophotopsis armata

description: Odontophotopsis armata Schuster
Odontophotopsis (Odontophotopsis) armata Schuster, 1958. Ent. Amer. (n. s.) 37: 60. Male. Neotype data: California, Riverside Co.: Deep Canyon, 15 males, 23–24.May.2007, Coll. Wilson, Williams and Pitts (EMUS).
Diagnosis of male. This species can be recognized by the presence of mesosternal processes, a deeply emarginate, tridentate, mandible that is slightly oblique apically (Fig. 4), and a distinct tubercle located medial on the posterior margin of the clypeus, while usually lacking a sternal felt line. In many of the specimens from Deep Canyon a trace of a sternal felt line is present, but it is defined by little more than a small cluster of micropunctures.
Female. Unknown.
Material examined. California, Riverside Co.: Deep Canyon, 15 males, 22–23.May.2007, 45 males, 23– 24. May.2007, 1 male, 11. Jul.1971, 1 male, 13–18. Jul.1969, 1 male, 19–20. Jul.1969, 1 male, 24. Aug.1969, 1 male, 9–11. Sep.1969, 8 males, 26.Sep–6. Oct.1969, 1 male, 6–8. Oct.1969, 3 male, 9. Oct.1963, 1 male, 11.Nov.1963.
Distribution. The western Sonoran Desert of California and Baja California, Mexico and the Mojave Desert.
Remarks. This species can be sometimes confused with O. serca, from which it only can be separated by the presence of the clypeal tubercle. These two species are genetically distinct, however (e.g., Pitts et al. 2010). This species often has a trace of sternal felt line made up of short, dense, plumose setae and occasionally associated micropunctures.
Schuster (1958) validated this species in a key, but did not designate a holotype or type locality (Ferguson 1967). As such, we are designating a Neotype for this species. Schuster (1958) placed this species in the O. serca species-group due to the deeply emarginate ventral margin of the mandible and the absence of sternal felt lines. This species differs from O. serca in having a tuberculate clypeus, which is lacking in O. serca, and mandibles that are oblique apically. Also, the apices of the mandibles are vertical in O. serca. Both of these characters should be used together, because the tuberculate aspect of the clypeus is sometimes difficult to see. Pitts et al. (2010) established that O. armata and O. serca are not closely related. A species-group housing O. armata should be delineated, but this is best left for a future revision of Odontophotopsis.

This species is recognized by having a tridentate mandible with an large dorsal tooth separated from the lower portion of the mandibular apex by a deep, wide, sinus, which makes the mandibular apices appear biramose (Fig. 7), and by the clypeus, which has a horseshoe-shaped tubercle posteromedially that overhangs the clypeus as a slight hood-like or nasutiform process (Fig. 7). Also, this species has a single mesosternal process on each side of the midline, and its cuspis is approximately half the free length of the paramere. The genitalia are illustrated by Pitts et al. (2009) in Fig. 10.
Female. Unknown.
Material examined (abbreviated). Arizona, Yuma Co., Maricopa Co., Mohave Co. California, Imperial Co., Riverside Co., San Bernardino Co. Nevada, Clark Co., Nye Co.
Distribution. The western Sonoran Desert of California and southwestern Arizona northward into Mojave Desert including southern Nevada.
Remarks. This species is rare, and has not been collected at Deep Canyon. It has been found in the Coachella Valley at Palm Springs, however, and included here because it is likely to be found here in the future. A more thorough discussion of this species can be found in Pitts (2007) and Pitts et al. (2009).
Schuster (1958) placed this species along with O. setifera in the O. setifera species-group. This group presumably was based heavily on similarities in mandibular morphology. Pitts (2007) studied the genitalia of these two species and suggested that they may not be closely related. Pitts et al. (2010) has confirmed this; O. biramosa seems to be closely related to O. melicausa while O. setifera seems to be closely related to, but not a member of, the O. parva species-group.

Diagnosis of male. This species can be easily recognized by the distinct mesosternal processes, which are made up of large glabrous longitudinal swellings located on either side of the midline. It also has typical O. parva species-group mandibles (Fig. 10).
Female. Unknown.
Material examined. California, Riverside Co.: Deep Canyon: 5 males, 22–23. May.2007, 20 males, 23– 24. May.2007, 1 male, 25.May.1953, coll. R. Flock, 2 males, 6–13. Jun.1969, 1 male, 13–15.

Distribution. Widespread throughout the Mojave and western Sonoran Deserts.
Remarks. Schuster (1958) placed this species into its own subgenus Periphotopsis due to its unique mesosternal processes. Pitts (2007) recognized that this species shares many characteristics with the O. parva species-group, and, as such, synonymized Periphotopsis with Odontophotopsis and moved O. mamata to the O. parva species-group. This placement is confirmed in Pitts et al. (2010).
