03EA87A6AD5CFFE25D6B4D32FD73A712.taxon	description	Description. Body mainly red with black ventral parts of head, labium, antennae, legs, mesoscutum (in most cases), sternum (including epicoxal lobes), small round spot on membrane base (could be missing), and spot on base of venter of variable size and indistinct outline, black. Pronotal epipleuron and upper part of posterior pleural flange I red. Membrane grey. Posterior pleural flanges I-III yellowish, this coloration usually restricted only to narrow band on hind margin on posterior flange III and sometimes completely missing (more dominant). Yellow coloration of flanges more pronounced in males than in females. Body large, wide. Tempus distinctly rounded, almost touching lateral margin of pronotum. Head in front of eyes conspicuously elongate, ventral part of head slightly rounded. Antennomere III spindle-shaped, conspicuously widening basally, somewhat narrowing apically. Labium reaching almost hind margin of ventrite III and sometimes onto ventrite IV. Pronotum wide, hind margin distinctly rounded, lateral margin usually strongly bow-shaped (particularly in females), anterior edges not protruding, rounded, pronotal margins only feebly turned upwards, little separated from pronotal lobe. Pronotum and scutellum without punctures (one specimen with indistinct punctures laterally on pronotal lobe). Clavus and corium with concolorous and very fine (shallow) punctures. Genital capsule (Fig. 3). Ventral rim medially unusually horizontally extended with long oval indentation, apices of both parts somewhat concurrent, their outer margins and ventral parts rounded, separated parts of dorsal rim infoldings strongly deepened. Lateral rim on interface with ventral rim somewhat elevated and laterally with deepened depression. Female genitalia. Valvifer I evenly diverging from its base. Laterotergite IX high. Anal tube narrow, small. Measurements (mm), given as mean (minimum-maximum). Males. Body length 12.66 (11.93 - 13.01). Head: width (including eyes) 1.86 (1.73 - 2.00), interocular width 1.15 (1.05 - 1.24). Antenna: antennomere I 2.50 (2.43 - 2.67), antennomere II 1.72 (1.67 - 1.78), antennomere III 1.80 (1.67 - 1.94), antennomere IV 2.3 5 (2.32 - 2.38). Pronotum: length 2.19 (2.11 - 2.27), width 3.79 (3 62 - 4.00). Scutellum: length 1.48 (1.46 - 1.51), width 1.75 (1.73 - 1.89). Corium: length 6.33 (6.21 - 6.48), width 2.33 (2.21 - 2.48). Females. Body length 14.92 (14.15 - 15.44). Head: width (including eyes) 2.22 (2.11 - 2.36), interocular width 1.37 (1.35 - 1.40). Antenna: antennomere I 2.97 (2.75 - 3.24), antennomere II 2.01 (1.89 - 2.16), antennomere III 2.05 (1.94 - 2.21), antennomere IV 2.68 (2.59 - 2.86). Pronotum: length 2.82 (2.75 - 3.08), width 4.71 (4.37 - 5.43). Scutellum: length 1.75 (1.63 - 1.89), width 2.16 (1.89 - 2.48). Corium: length 7.83 (7.29 - 8.80), width 2.78 (2.65 - 3.13). Variability. One specimen from Kerala State (Fig. 1) has distinctly different coloration. The entire antennomere I and the basal half of antennomere II are red, as are the distal parts of the femora and whole tibiae (except apices). The membrane is black except base. Transitional states approaching this coloration can be found, e. g., antennomere I red, particularly often on its base, also the apices of the fore femora or the entire legs sometimes reddish brown instead of black. It is noteworthy that D. lanius Stål, 1863, and D. grandis Stehlík, 2005, also show a similar variability in colour.	en	Stehlík, Jaroslav L., Jindra, Zdeněk (2006): Five new species of the genus Dindymus (Heteroptera: Pyrrhocoridae).

03EA87A6AD5CFFE25D6B4D32FD73A712.taxon	diagnosis	Differential diagnosis. The new species differs from similar species (of light red colour) on the Indian subcontinent, namely from D. sanguineus (Fabricius, 1794) and D. multidentatus Stehlík, 2005, by its larger size, wider body, non-concave lateral margins of the pronotum, and by its black epicoxal lobes. In D. bifurcatus sp. nov., the yellow coloration of the posterior pleural flanges is very much reduced (either completely absent or only present as a narrow, indistinct band on the hind margin). In D. sanguineus from China the posterior pleural flanges I and II and the epicoxal lobes I and II are black or partially black but the ventrites are yellow (not red) with irregular black transverse stripes. In contrast to all other species compared, D. bifurcatus sp. nov. has entirely black segment I of the labium (not red with black apex) and a completely different genital capsule. Strongly elongate and deeply incised apex of the capsule is only found in D. mundus Stål, 1863, from the Philippines. However, this species has, besides other characters, a black pronotum and scutellum, the red corium is darker on its base, the basal half of the last antennal segment and the epicoxal lobes are whitish (as well as the posterior pleural flanges I-III), and antennomeres I and II are red (except apices).	en	Stehlík, Jaroslav L., Jindra, Zdeněk (2006): Five new species of the genus Dindymus (Heteroptera: Pyrrhocoridae).

03EA87A6AD5FFFE55D854858FC05A510.taxon	diagnosis	Differential diagnosis. This species is closely related to Dindymus lanius (Fig. 5). Dyndimus lanius differs from the new species by lacking the distinctly creamy white posterior pleural flanges and epicoxal lobes and by having only the posterior margins of the posterior pleural flanges of lighter colour (yellowish or reddish) and the epicoxal lobes black. Dindymus lanius is also much larger, its vertex, lateral margins of the pronotum and costal margin of the corium are substantially wider, and the puncturation on the clavus and corium is more pronounced. Its genital capsule is larger (diameter maximally 2.05 mm; in D. chinensis sp. nov. only 1.57 mm) and the medial protrusion of the ventral rim is narrower apically, only very weakly split, somewhat longer, and inclined into the genital chamber. Dindymus thyoneus Kirkaldy & Edwards, 1902, was synonymized with D. lanius by DISTANT (1903). Because of the close relationship of the new species with D. lanius, this synonymization has been checked by comparing the type of D. thyoneus and was found justified. Based on the material available to us it seems that D. lanius is limited to the Oriental region whereas D. chinensis sp. nov. occurs in subtropical parts of China. For comparison the measurements (in mm, as means with ranges in parentheses) for D. lanius are given: Males. Body length: 15.54 (16.04 - 15.67). Head: width (including eyes) 2.41 (2.40 - 2.43), interocular width 1.35 (1.32 - 1.40).

Pronotum: length 2.85 (2.75 - 2.94), width 5.08 (4.89 - 5.32). Scutellum 1.94 (1.78 - 2.05), width 2.34 (2.11 - 2.48). Corium: length 7.57 (7.34 - 7.83), width 3.24 (2.97 - 3.43). Females.

03EA87A6AD5BFFE75D874CF8FDFEA212.taxon	diagnosis	Differential diagnosis. Dindymus variabilis Stål, 1870, from the Island of Mindanao, Philippines, differs from the new species by the very shiny head and pronotum, the distinctly black pronotum not skirted along all its edges by a yellowish white margin, the black legs, the longer antennae and legs, and the black membrane (except base and apex). Dindymus seminiger Blöte, 1931, differs from the new species by its much wider head and pronotal base, its head and legs being black instead of reddish, and the pronotum entirely black without pale margin, which applies also to the clavus and corium up to the claval apex. In females the posterior pleural flanges I and II are black instead of yellowish. From D. rubiginosus (Fabricius, 1787) and D. bifurcatus sp. nov., the new species differs, besides other characters, by the red pronotum without pale margin.	en	Stehlík, Jaroslav L., Jindra, Zdeněk (2006): Five new species of the genus Dindymus (Heteroptera: Pyrrhocoridae).

03EA87A6AD5AFFE85D864D58FF77A2B1.taxon	diagnosis	Differential diagnosis. This new species is similar to Dindymus albicornis (Fabricius, 1803) and D. daiacus Breddin, 1901. Both are markedly different from the new species in having antennomere I, labium, clavus (except the apex) and almost the entire basal half of corium black or almost black. In addition, D. daiacus has black bases of the legs and its distal part of the corium is pale yellow instead of red. It also has a shiny yellowish band on the base of the pronotal lobe, but this is not interrupted medially and terminates distant from the posterior angles of the pronotum. Dindymus albicornis has two large, usually dull yellow spots on the pronotal base. Both of these species are bigger, have a wider head and pronotal base, more convex eyes, in lateral view the frons is almost flat in front of the eyes and evenly inclined towards the clypeus, and the punctures on the clavus and corium are more conspicuous. Dindymus daiacus has an even wider vertex (1.35 mm) and base of pronotum (3.46 mm). The new species is closest to D. albicornis and therefore the measurements of this species are given for comparison (in mm, as means with ranges in parentheses): Females. Body length 12.26 (11.93 - 12.47). Head: width (including eyes) 2.24 (2.13 - 2.31), interocular width 1.19 (1.13 - 1.24). Antenna: antennomere I 2.53 (2.46 - 2.59), antennomere II 1.61 (1.46 - 1.75), antennomere III 1.48 (1.40 - 1.57), antennomere IV 2.54 (2.32 - 2.70). Pronotum: length 2.29 (2.21 - 2.38), width 3.24 (3.13 - 3.29). Scutellum: length 1.43 (1.35 - 1.51), width 1.64 (1.57 - 1.73). Corium: length 5.71 (5.51 - 5.94), width 2.00 (1.94 - 2.05).	en	Stehlík, Jaroslav L., Jindra, Zdeněk (2006): Five new species of the genus Dindymus (Heteroptera: Pyrrhocoridae).

03EA87A6AD55FFE95D824E38FDB1A2F2.taxon	description	Description. Female. Head, antennae (except basal third of antennomere IV), labium, callar lobe, scutellum, legs including coxae, sternum including epicoxal lobes, large ventral spot (with clear outline) on base of abdomen, narrowing and reaching towards ventrite VII, black. Pronotal lobe dark brown. Clavus and base of corium dark brown, becoming gradually lighter with a wine-red touch to light yellow at level of median vein on membrane, base up to apex of corium light grey, distal part of membrane black. Ventrites including genitalia yellow to orange. Basal third of last antennomere whitish. Head anterior and posterior of eyes protruding, in frontal view markedly and evenly elevated above eyes, in lateral view somewhat rounded ventrally. Eyes only little convex, tempus protruding towards vertex, which is rather large and separated from frons by rounded furrow. Pronotum narrow both basally and anterolaterally (here more narrow than head including eyes). Lateral margins of pronotum thinner, markedly bent upwards, anterior angles not protruding to front, distinctly sinuate around midlength, well rounded in front of base. Base of costal margin not very wide, body almost pear-shaped, widest behind claval apex. Fore femur with one great, outer denticle and one smaller, inner denticle. Puncturation on pronotal lobe and mesoscutum on entire surface very dense and conspicuous, clavus and corium except apex colourless and dwindling. Female genitalia. Both sides of valvifer I touching only slightly at base, its upper margin running in parallel with distal margin of ventrite VII (more or less bordering it), and feebly depressed; laterotergite IX large and high (reaching up to short valvifer I) with large depression and from both sides covering valvifer II. Tergite VIII and anal tube markedly overlapping ventrite VII in lateral view. Measurements (mm). Holotype female. Body length 12.80. Head: width (including eyes) 2.02, interocular width 1.24.

03EA87A6AD55FFE95D824E38FDB1A2F2.taxon	diagnosis	Differential diagnosis. The new species is similar to D. nigellus Distant, 1888, and D. longicollis Blöte, 1931, from the Oriental region in the shape of its head, i. e., the head long and narrow, eyes a little convex and rather far from the pronotum; as well as in its pronotum, which is narrow both proximally and distally, the callar lobe being without any medial protuberances. The new species can be easily recognized, as the corium is entirely pale (whitish or yellowish) in the two above-mentioned species whereas in the new one it is dark brown except a wider apical band of lighter colour.	en	Stehlík, Jaroslav L., Jindra, Zdeněk (2006): Five new species of the genus Dindymus (Heteroptera: Pyrrhocoridae).
