Summary: | Pinodytes orca Peck & Cook, new species (Figs. 40, 359–367) Type material. Holotype: male (SBPC). UNITED STATES. Oregon: Josephine Co., ORCA Nat. Mon., Oregon Cave, 4000–4200’, 42.098N 123.406W, 28.I–27.II.1993, Ron Reed & J. Roth, (at entrance), #3 pitfall trap, cheesebaited, past connecting tunnel end, moist soil (at base of flowstone), dark zone. Paratype (1). UNITED STATES. Oregon: same data except 27.III–1.V.1993, male (SBPC). Material examined. We have examined 2 specimens. Distribution. Specimens (Fig. 359) are known only from Josephine County, in southwestern Oregon. Diagnostic description. Total length 4.20 mm; greatest width 1.76 mm. Dark reddish brown; flattened and elongate in shape (Fig. 40). Head. Finely, sparsely punctate; vertex with reticulate microsculpture. Eyes absent. Antenna (Fig. 360) elongate; antennomere 2 shorter than 3; antennomere 5 larger than 4 and 6; antennomere 7 clearly larger than 8; antennomeres 9 and 10 lack visible sensory vesicles. Pronotum. Punctures large, dense, separated by less than one to two diameters; microsculpture weak, reticulate. Widest at base; sides somewhat explanate, parallel in basal one-third, then narrowing to apex; apical margin emarginate, basal margin straight; apical angles rounded, basal angles nearly rectangular. Elytra. Punctures moderately large, irregularly spaced; surface weakly rugose, with punctures joined by curved transverse strioles. Elytra explanate laterally; sides parallel in basal one-half, then narrowing to apex; each elytron with a sublateral punctate stria. Legs. Protibia (Fig. 361) widening to broad apex; dense fine spines on apical two-thirds of inner margin; outer margin with two or three short spines and two larger spines at apex. Mesotibia (Fig. 363) with basal three-fifths narrow, weakly sinuate; apical two-fifths broad with elongate fine spines laterally; outer margin and apex with strong spines. Metatibia (Fig. 364) elongate, narrow, straight; apical one-half and apex spinose. Metafemur (Fig. 364) slender. Male ... |
