            <p> Australotymnes new genus (Figs. 1–8) </p>
            <p> Type species.  Australotymnes jipijapa n. sp.., here designated. </p>
            <p>Body elongate oval, dorsally convex (Figs. 1–2). Head with frons and clypeus coarsely punctate. Eyes oval, shallowly and broadly emarginate at antennal insertion; ocular sulci absent. Antenna with scape elongate oval, pedicel subglobose, shorter than scape, distinctly shorter than antennomere 1; flagellum filiform, each antennomere slightly wider at apex, elongate; antennomeres 3–6 with scattered appressed setae, antennomeres 7–11 densely pubescent, with whorl of long erect setae at apex of antennomeres 3–10; antennomere spindle-shaped. Mandibles with outer margin with sharp bend, lateral surface rugose and setose, apical teeth broad, pointed. Maxillary palpi with apical segment tapered. Prothorax distinctly wider than long; pronotum moderately convex, with posterior margin subequal to anterior margin, anterior angles almost square, posterior angles subacute; all angles with a seta-bearing puncture; basal marginal bead present; lateral margin narrow and evenly rounded, with widest part of pronotum just behind middle. Prosternum longitudinally slightly inclined behind coxae, transversely flat; with anterior margin recessed for reception of gular area of head; posterior margin of intercoxal process truncate. Lateral wings of prosternum recessed for reception of gular area of head, with anterior margin weakly convex. Hypomeron weakly concave. Mesosternum subequal in width to prosternum, flat between coxae; metasternum convex, swollen anterior to hind coxae; metepisternum gradually narrowed posteriorly. Legs sparsely covered with short prostrate setae; all surfaces alutaceous. Femora strongly swollen in middle; tibiae bicarinate, slightly sulcate between carinae, with seta increasing in length toward apex; protibiae widened in apical third and spatulate at apex; middle and hind tibiae gradually widened apically. Tarsi densely and uniformly pilose beneath; basal and second tarsomeres subequal in length, third tarsomere shorter than second, deeply bilobed; terminal tarsomere distinctly surpassing apex of third tarsomere; claws divergent, appendiculate. Elytra with humeri prominent, rounded; basal calli obsolete, postbasal depression lacking, sides subparallel, convergent apices moderately declivous, epipluron narrow, acutely raised, slanted, tapering evenly from base to apex. Scutellum U-shaped, with base subequal to length; surface smooth. Abdomen with all segments subequal in length; pygidium with a longitudinal groove, surface and lateral margins smooth. Male genitalia (Fig. 4–6): basal hood of median lobe weakly constricted at point of attachment, basal fenestra lacking, basal spurs weakly developed. Female Genitalia (Fig. 7–8): Segments VIII–XI forming moderately long ovipositor, basal apodeme of sternum VIII long and narrow, tapered at the ends, tergum VIII with very weakly sclerotized diagonal bands, paraprocts developed into long thin rods. Spermatheca (Fig. 8) Receptacle narrower than pump, duct lightly sclerotized, relatively short.</p>
            <p> Etymology. Austro, Latin from australis meaning south;  tymnes , from the genus  Tymnes Chapuis. The latter name is originally from the Greek, as Herodotus mentions several personages named  Tymnes (eg. Herodotus 440BCE). </p>
            <p> Remarks. This genus can be distinguished from all other Neotropical  Eumolpinae by the following combination of characters: 1) pygidium with median groove; 2) prosternum broadly recessed along anterior margin; 3) anterior margin of lateral arms of prosternum straight or weakly concave (i.e. not forming anterior "ocular lobes" as in  Typophorus or  Paria ); 4) subparallel sides of elytra.  Australotymnes most closely resembles blue or green species of North American  Tymnes but can be recognized by the straight or weakly concave lateral arms of the prosternum (these are weakly convex in  Tymnes ), by the more strongly developed lateral margin of the pronotum, the well developed pygidial groove (developed only on the basal half of the pygidium in  Tymnes ) and by the relatively short basal hood and long tubular median lobe of the male genitalia. </p>

            <p> Australotymnes jipijapa Flowers ,  new species</p>
            <p>Holotype male. Length 5.8 mm. Head, pronotum and elytra shining dark green; antennae with segments 1–5 reddish brown, 6–11 piceous. Underside dark blue-green, tip of abdomen brown; legs reddish brown (Figs. 1–2). Head and clypeus rugosely punctate, punctures separated by distance less than the diameter of puncture, surface between punctures alutaceous; apex of clypeus emarginate with long white setae laterally. Frons coarsely punctate, punctures separated by distance less than the diameter of a puncture; surface between punctures alutaceous; antennal calli alutaceous and slightly swollen with several large punctures. Mouthparts dark reddish brown with apex of labrum emarginate, with 4 dorsal setae and short fow of lateral setae along outer margin. Prothorax wider than long, L/W = 0.67; pronotal disc strongly punctate, with punctures widely spaced on dorsal midline, becoming denser laterally and forming pair of rugose oval areas near posterior angles, surface between punctures smooth, shining with small punctulae. Under surface of thorax smooth. Prosternum with long setae, coarsely punctate, width of intercoxal process 0.6 x diameter of procoxa. Mesosternum flat between coxae, densely punctate with dense white setae; metasternum punctate with dense short white setae; metepisternum with surface wrinkled. Elytra evenly punctate, width across humeri 1.28 x width across pronotum with punctures forming two striae along suture in apical third; interval VIII swollen in apical fourth and above apical declivity; surface between punctures smooth with scattered small punctulae; apices with concave emargination with a small tooth laterally on each side (Fig. 3). Abdomen with dense prostrate setae, surface of segments alutaceous, male sternum VII with lateral margins smooth and a weak median depression. Median lobe elongate, tubular, with apex lanceolate (Fig. 6); basal hood relatively short relative to median lobe, subbasal fenestra obsolete, basal spurs obtuse, scarcely produced. Endophallus not extruded but membraneous with only a small pair of needle-like sclerotized structures near the base. Apical sclerite robust, not twisted (Fig. 5).</p>
            <p>Allotype Female. Body elongate oval; length 6.9 mm; head, pronotum, elytra, and underside piceous with metallic green reflex; antennae reddish brown; legs piceous with bluish reflex. Prothorax distinctly wider than long, L/W = 0.52, pronotum as in male but with disc more evenly punctate, lacking rugose area near posterior angles; prosternum with width of intercoxal process 0.6 x diameter of procoxa. Legs similar in form to male but basal tarsomere of fore- and middle legs not expanded. Elytral punctation and apical emargination as in male. Abdomen with surface of segments alutaceous and strongly punctate, covered with yellowish-white setae, stenum VII with apical margin weakly emarginate, and with numerous long lateral and apical setae. Abdominal segments VIII–XI forming moderately elongate ovipositor (Fig. 7) Sternum VII with long setae along apical margin laterally; baculum weakly sclerotized, subequal to gonocoxae; gonocoxae slender, with long setae in apical half, coxostyli small with long apical setae. Spermatheca as in Fig. 8.</p>
            <p> Etymology. This species is named for the town of  Jipijapa (pronounced HEE-PEE-HA-PA) in Manabí Province, Ecuador, the nearest town to where the holotype of this species was found. The name is a noun in apposition. </p>
