Revision of the subgenus Dryopomera s. str. (Coleoptera: Oedemeridae)
- N/A
Species of the nominotypical subgenus Dryopomera Fairmaire are revised, illustrated and keyed and species-groups are proposed. The following new species are described: Dryopomera (Dryopomera) ceylonica sp. n. (Sri Lanka), D. (D.) sundaica sp. n. (Indonesia), D. (D.) tonkinensis sp. n. (Vietnam), D. (D.) longissima sp. n. (Nepal), D. (D.) nepalensis sp. n. (Nepal), D. (D.) malaccana sp. n. (Malaya), D. (D.) burmanica sp. n. (Burma), D. (D.) rugicollis sp. n. (Malaya) and D. (D.) malayana sp. n. (Malaya). The following new synonymies are proposed: D. (D.) innotata (Pic, 1943) = Mimoncomera innotata var. unicolor Pic, 1943, syn. n., and D. (D.) indica (Fairmaire, 1896) = Oncomera geniculata syn. n. D. (D.) notatipennis (Pic, 1915) comb. & stat. n. is raised to specific status from Oncomera geniculata var. notatipennis Pic, 1915. The following species are transferred to Dryopomera: D. (D.) ingeniculata (Pic, 1915) comb. n. and D. (D.) piceonotata (Pic, 1932) comb. n. from Oncomera Stephens; D. (D.) testaceipennis (Pic, 1932) comb. n. from Oedemera Olivier and D. (D.) coomani (Pic, 1925) comb. n. from Xanthochroa Schmidt.
