Moderately large, elongate­ovoid, flattened above, moderately convex below; dorsal integument black with defined, yet irregular iridescent dull green depressions laterally on pronotum and elytra with short recumbent setae that contain yellow pulverulent exudate; ventral surface iridescent dull green; head longitudinally depressed on frontovertex; inner margin of large eyes converging dorsally; antennal insertions widely separated; medioventral margin of epistome emarginate; antennomeres elongate, feebly serrate from 3; pronotum nearly 1.5x as wide as long, widest at very feeble bisinuate posterior margin; anterior margin broadly concave, with medial portion narrowly bilobed; lateral margins broadly, shallowly convex, with marginal carina extending only to posterior 1/3; scutellum small, subquadrate; elytra as wide as pronotum at anterior margin, but quickly expanding to obtuse angle opposite humerus then subparallel, feebly expanding to beyond midpoint then gradually narrowing to separately dentate apices, margin from posterior midpoint strongly, yet widely separated, acutely dentate; prosternum with anterior margin entire, prosternal process broadly trilobed distally, disc longitudinally sulcate; femora strongly fusiform; tibiae with two distal spines; tarsi with broad ventral pulvilli on tarsomeres 1–4, 5 with claws narrow, widely separated.</p> <p>Remarks. Théry (1929) discussed C. subfasciata in terms of placement within Chalcophora or Chrysodema and stated “ Chrysodema are merely southern forms of the genus Chalcophora, without any very decisive character to separate them from Holarctic forms, being the geographic replacement for Chalcophora in the Southern Hemisphere. This is moreover the opinion of Lacordaire (1857) who refused to separate the two genera, not being able to find appreciable limits between them. We shall preserve them, however, but on the condition of not introducing into the genus Chalcophora species unprovided with the characteristic facies of the holartic species.” Chalcophora, as presently defined, contains 15 species from the Nearctic, Neotropical, Oriental and Palaearctic regions and these are generally associated with coniferous trees, e.g. Pinus and Picea. Morphologically these beetles do not differ in major ways, seeming to retain many of the shared character states of a conservative chalcophorine lineage. However, the morphological differences when taken together with the biological and biogeographic divergence are sufficient to justify this new genus which conforms to the overwhelming data that support the hypothesis of a distinct Australian buprestid lineage (see discussion above). Australochalcophora and Chalcophora can be separated by the character state differences listed below in Table 1.</p> </div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03D90925FFB51622FEB6F9937E4C219E	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

According to Jack Hasenpusch (in litt.) “this species breeds in Acacia melanoxylon R. Br. ex Ait (“black wattle”). This is a rainforest beetle with females collected south of Cairns and in Kuranda ovipositing on the stressed or damaged mature trees. Black wattle is a pioneer species and matures at about 80 years, before declining from there when they become more attractive to this species and other buprestids. Austrochalcophora subfasciata are rarely encountered because they normally feed 60 to 80 feet up in the canopy, but are occasionally encountered as freshly emerged beetles on one­ and twoyear old trees which have grown up next to a fallen giant and these are the closest leaves to the freshly emerged beetles, so they feed on them. Normally they would emerge from the branches and fly to the nearest leafy branch in the canopy. They don`t have much powder on the elytra on emergence and it really comes out of the elytral cuticle when the beetles start to feed. The color of the powder is canary yellow, old specimens may discolour to orange yellow or darker.”</p> <p>Remarks. This species is very distinct both within the Australian fauna and in comparison to species of Chalcophora and Chrysodema.</p> </div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03D90925FFB21623FEB6FC54780E2776	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

This species was overlooked or ignored in most subsequent works (e.g. Carter, 1929, Kerremans, 1909, Obenberger, 1926), so not surprisingly it has taken until now for the correct generic assignation to be recognized. Carter’s (1940) transfer to Chalcotaenia indicates both the previously uncertain division between that genus and Pseudotaenia, as well as a probability that he never saw the type. That P. frenchi was misplaced is all the more surprising because Blackburn (1891) compared it to P. gigas, P. superba and P. waterhousei in the original description and I acknowledge Mark Hanlon’s suggestion that this name was a probable match to the recent specimens collected and reared by Jack Hasenpusch.</p> </div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03D90925FFB01621FEB6FFC17ADA2696	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

David Knowles (in litt.) contributed: “It is well known that P. gigas is hosted by 'Jam tree' (Acacia acuminata Benth.) which occurs in the following IBRA Bioregions COO, MUR, GAS, YAL, AW, ESP, GS, JF, MAL and SWA. It ranges from a 1.0 m shrub to a 7 m small tree. The common name refers to the jam­like sap exudations from the burrowings of large cossid moths, P. gigas and the handsome cerambycid Rhytiphora saundersi (Pascoe). I believe the type locality to be in error, more likely the nearest exit port. Jam first occurs in decent stands in the drier eastern Darling Range (JF). I have never seen it in SWA where I suspect it is rare. Jam is strongly associated with granite outcrops or subsurface granites. Adults feed in the crowns of eucalypts adjacent to mature stands of Jam from late December to late February. The larvae have been collected from many localities, extracted from roots at base of trunk on smaller trees ranging up to about 2 m on big trees—the more meat the higher they emerge.” An anecdote is told about some of the old collectors targeting ‘eucs’ where the beetles were seen active in the crown but too high to effectively net. They cleared litter from beneath the roosting tree and gave the trunk an almighty wallop with the front of their jalopy first thing the following morning causing a rain of cold P. gigas from above. Mark Hanlon (in litt.) added: “ five specimens were collected 8 km SW of Goomalling, WA [AW, 8.34 km SW Goomalling, S31° 22' 08.80" E116° 47' 32.71", elevation: 198m], on 30 Dec 1977. Specimens were active at approximately 10.30 am, landing on Acacia acuminata at the crown, then were walking down the branches onto the main trunk. A female specimen was observed between 1 to 2 metres above the ground with its abdomen extended slightly and rubbing this along the trunk of the tree looking as though it was attempting to find a place to oviposit. The diameter of the trunk at this point was approximately 5 cm. The habitat was mixed Jam (A. acuminata) to about 4.0 metres in height and eucalypts. The eucalypts in the vicinity were not checked to see whether adult P. gigas were on them. The following day, 1 January 1978, one specimen was observed flying over mature A. acuminata at South Tammin Flora Reserve [AW, Tammin Railway Dam Nature Reserve, S31° 39' 57.5" E117° 32' 40.9"]. Several larva were collected from A. acuminata trunks at McDermid Rock [COO, S32° 1' 41.4", E120° 44' 8.8"] in January 2003 with Svata Bílý. Michael Powell (in litt.) confirmed that he has collected adult P. gigas from eucalypt leaves in several localities throughout their range”.</p> <p>Remarks. The type of this species (OXUM COLE 0990) was not examined. The holotype of P. gigantea (Fig. 6) shows obvious color differences compared to P. waterhousei (Fig. 7), under which it has been synonymized until now. Even though the colors are slightly different from fresh specimens of P.gigas, and these may be the result of chemical treatment or exposure, this new synonymy is a much better match. The published type locality for P. gigantea is “Nova Guinea ”, most likely the result of mislabeling or some confusion in the transmission of the specimens to the author.</p> </div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03D90925FFB1162FFEB6FC0178892156	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Barnard (1890) discussed this species eating the leaves of Casuarina. Mark Hanlon (in litt.) wrote: “ P. salamandra appears to associate with Casuarina as an adult host, though I am aware it has mainly been collected on eucalypt leaves by recent collectors (sympatric with P. ajax). I have collected extensively around the Duaringa area and adjacent to the property mentioned by Barnard. The dominant Casuarina species by far is C. cristata F.Muell. ex Miq., commonly known as ‘belah’. Also in the area is C. cunninghamiana Miq. which grows along creek lines and also there may be Allocasuarina leuhmannii (R.T. Baker) L.A.S. Johnson which is more commonly found further west near Dingo (I have not found it in the vicinity of Duaringa). An adult female emerged 23 February 2001 from a billet of Acacia harpophylla ('Brigalow') (new larval host record) collected on 16 January 2000, 55 km W of Emerald [BBN, S23° 36' 00.8" E147° 38' 45.2", elevation 283m], Qld. The brigalow billet was cut from dying standing tree approximately 12 meters high by Michael Powell and myself. Billet taken was approximately 3.5 metres in length cut from 40 cm above ground level. The billet diameter was 13 cm at the base and 10 cm at the tip and was cut into 3 pieces each approximately a metre in length. The specimen emerged from piece that would have been the equivalent of about 2 metres from the ground. There was evidence of old emergence holes in the wood already and several larval tunnels at the ends of the cut billets. Habitat was mixed Brigalow and eucalypt closed woodland in a gully. Also present was Casuarina cristata. This species and P. ajax have been collected several times in recent years from the leaves of Eucalyptus populnea ("poplar box" or "bimble box") in mixed brigalow/eucalypt woodland in the Springsure/ Clermont district.”</p> <p>Remarks. This synonymy has been accepted since Neervoort van de Poll (1886).

Australia, New South Wales, Queensland.</p> <p>Biology/Bionomy. Barnard (1890) suggested that Acacia shirleyi Maiden was a larval host after observing the adults on lower trunks. Hawkeswood &amp; Peterson (1982) and Hawkeswood (1983) recorded this species breeding in living stems of A. leiocalyx (Domin) Pedley in central southeast Queensland. Pullen (1984, 1987) summarized previ­ ously recorded biological and distributional information and included A. cheelii Blakely and A. doratoxylon A. Cunn. from localities in New South Wales. Mark Hanlon (in litt.) contributed the following notes: “In the paper by Barnard (1890), he mentioned P. superba, however this is P. waterhousei and the Duaringa area is the northernmost locality as far as I am aware. I confirmed this through discussions with Ernest Adams of Mourangee Station. I collected 16 specimens from a hilltop at Sandy Hollow, NSW., on 20 Jan 1996. All specimens were collected on eucalypt leaves among scattered eucalypt and Acacia doratoxylon community. Specimens are cryptic by nature and were found by scanning the crowns of eucalypts with binoculars. Average height of trees was 3–5 metres. The eucalyptus leaves showed considerable signs of damage from being eaten. This damage was not observed in subsequent years when no Pseudotaenia were found. Collected specimens were kept alive in vials, where they all, to varying degrees, excreted dark green material which smelled strongly of eucalyptus. At the summit of The Round Hill [on boundary of MDD &amp; CP, S32° 57' 46", E146° 08' 56.8", elevation approx. 230m], Round Hill Nature Reserve, NSW, one specimen collected from leaves of mallee (Eucalyptus sp) on each of 26 Jan 1995 and 9 Dec 2000. Also seven specimens captured (three released) on 8 Jan 2005 and six specimens captured (two released) on 12 Dec 2004. All of these were found either by observing the specimens sitting on the eucalyptus leaves or by seeing specimens flying and landing on the eucalypts, then netting them. These eucalypts are from 2.5–3.5 metres in height. Again, all specimens collected excreted macerated eucalypt leaves. Furthermore, I have reared P. waterhousei: two specimens emerged 3 Feb. 2002 from billets of Acacia doratoxylon collected 15 Sep 2001 by Michael Powell and myself at The Round Hill, Round Hill Nature Reserve, NSW. The billets were approximately 1.2 m long and 8 cm in diameter and were cut from a dying tree.” Allen Sundholm (in litt.) added: "on 30 Dec 1983 one male adult specimen emerged out of a billet 1 metre in length cut by myself and Jim Turner from a recently­dead Acacia sp. (A.? doratoxtylon) along the walking track to Ben Halls Cave (Black Gin Gully) where the track began to rise [NSS, at apx. S33° 54' 13.0" S, E147° 57' 07.1", elevation approx. 330m] at the western base of the Weddin Mountains (near Grenfell, NSW). The local habitat was dominated by the host Acacia species and Callitris glaucophylla Joy Thompson &amp; L.A.S. Johnson (Cupressaceae). The selected host tree had numerous old and recent emergence holes, and similar holes were noted at various heights on the trunks of about 20% of the host trees, living and dying, though most emergence holes were in trunks measuring some 10 to 15 cm in diameter and only a few emergence holes were present in host plants with thicker trunks. The selected billet was approx. 1 m long, averaged 10 cm in diameter and was cut between 1.5–2.5 m from the ground It was noted that the specimen bore only a small amount of pulverulence compared to netted specimens. On 6 Apr 1985 at approx. 21 km E of Kenebri in the Pilliga State Forests, NSW [BBS, S30°39' 37.8", E149° 07' 54.5", elevation approx. 247m] an intact dead adult and a number of larvae of various stages were found by myself and Joe Bugeja within the recently­dead trunks of a tall Acacia ? leiocalyx (Domin) Pedley (Mimosaceae). The trunk of the tree we had found these in was about 8 cm in diameter. Eighteen specimens were collected on 5 Dec 1995 by myself and Alex Scott from numbers of mallee Eucalyptus sp. some 2–4 m in height growing at the summit area of The Round Hill in Round Hill Nature Reserve, NSW [on boundary of MDD &amp; CP, S32° 57' 46", E146° 08' 56.8", elevation approx 230m]. The adults were found either at rest on the leaves, some chewing the leaves, or flying from tree to tree, mainly the mallee­ Eucalyptus. Several adults (sex unknown) were recorded on video including one specimen which at intervals rapidly tapped its sternites against the upper stems as it moved about in the crown of a mallee­ Eucalyptus, making a tapping sound loud enough to be audible in the video recording. On 19 Dec 1997 one female specimen was collected by myself and Joe Bugeja from the leaves of a Eucalyptus sp. to where it had flown after having first observed the specimen walking down the trunk of a living Acacia spp. (A.? doratoxylon) growing in a community of the same on a rock platform on the north side of a hill south of Hollydean in the Hunter Valley, NSW [SB, S32° 20' 8.0", E150° 36' 60.0", elevation approx. 180m]. At this time other adults of this species were observed flying from tree to tree of the same Acacia sp. and to various Eucalyptus trees, but were not able to be captured due to their speed of flight and the height of the trees (15m +). One freshly­dead adult was found on the ground beneath the Acacia ? doratoxylon trees at this same locality in the early 2000's by myself and Raymond Chin. It was noted that since the earlier visit of 1997 many of the Acacia ? doratoxylon trees at this locality had died. I possess a specimen collected by M. De Baar from Acacia leiocalyx in Dunmore State Forest, QLD on 27 Dec 1980. On the 20 Dec 1981 several adults were observed by myself and Jim Turner amongst large Acacia sp. trees (A.? leiocalyx) in Dunmore State Forest [Dunmore Forestry Station is located at BBS, S27° 34' 19.0", E151° 05' 3.0", elevation approx. 402m]. In late January 1999 two adults were collected in Dunmore State Forest by Roger de Keyzer at Observation Post 4 [BBS, S27° 48' 1.0", E151° 1' 51.6" E, elevation approx. 410m] as they were flying around the crown of large Acacia sp. (A.? leiocalyx) growing at the base of a laterite outcrop. Several adults on tall Acacia sp. (A.? leiocalyx) in the western part of the Dunmore State Forests [BBS, S27° 36' 32.47", E150° 41' 58.5", elevation approx. 348m], and where a number of fresh emergence holes were noted in the Acacia trunks."</p> <p>Remarks. Kerremans (1903, 1909) proposed a reversal of the synonymy between P. laeta (Waterhouse, 1884) and P. waterhousei (Neervoort van de Poll, 1886). This is not possible according to ICZN (1999): Article 59.3 which requires that the ‘junior secondary homonym replaced before 1961 is permanently invalid unless the substitute name is not in use’. Since waterhousei has been used a number of times (see synonymy above), this name will remain valid. The living specimen in Figure 15 is of an adult photographed in situ on the billet of the larval host (possibly A. doratoxylon) a few moments after emergence (A. Sundholm in litt.).</p> </div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03D90925FFBB1629FEB6FE737A98258E	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply. See Agosti, D., Egloff, W., 2009.

Mark Hanlon (in litt.) wrote: “ one specimen from 2.5 km E of Duaringa, Qld collected on 10 Jan 1999 by sweeping the leaves of Alphitonia excelsa ('red ash'). Also collected at same place was a billet which contained 2 larvae of A. quadrisignata from the trunk of A. excelsa. The billet was 3–3.5 cm in diameter and 25 cm in length and was collected because there was a small area of dead wood on the trunk of a living plant. I cut the larva from the billet and preserved it in late October 2001 and gave it to S. Bílý for the description (Bílý &amp; Volkovitsh 2003: 112.). A comment from Dennis Kitching is that he has observed fresh emergence holes in the trunks of A. excelsa which appear to match that of A. quadrisignata (adults were collected on the surrounding plants) and that upon returning to the same site two months later the emergence holes had been almost completely eliminated by the tree growing over the holes. Within six months there is no outward sign of any previous emergence. One specimen was collected at Mourangee Station, ca. 20km E of Duaringa on 17 Jan 1999. The specimen was sitting on leaves of A. excelsa at its crown, approx 2 m. from ground. Three specimens collected by Michael Powell and myself on 9 Jan 2000 at summit of Mt. Inkerman, Qld from leaves of A. excelsa. Six specimens collected on 27 Dec 2001 at Mourangee Station by Stuart Adams and myself. Adults were on "yellow wood", a name used by Stuart and his father Ernest, and were found by tapping the tree with a small sledge hammer which caused the beetles to fly out and on to nearby trees of the same spe­ cies. I did not take samples to identify the tree however it is quite likely to be Terminalia oblongata F. Muell. which is known as yellow wood. It is not Flindersia xanthoxyla (A.Cunn. ex Hook.) Domin. which is also known as ‘yellow wood’. Trees were on average 8– 9 m. tall.” Allen Sundholm added: “Alex Scott, Roger de Keyzer, Joe Stivala and I collected it from the leaves of Alphitonia sp. growing along a very small watercourse (filled by monsoonal rains) 9 km NW of Belyando Crossing [BBS, S21° 29' 47" E146° 47' 24"] in Jan 1999 (the area has since been largely cleared). It occurs near Lightning Ridge [DRP, S29° 24' 20.2" E147° 58' 49.9"] in far central­northern NSW, a specimen was collected there by James Forman of Sydney.” A specimen deposited in AMSA from Narrabri, NSW is probably from the most southerly locality known.</p> </div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03D90925FFA61637FEB6F853782E21EE	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

This genus contains 15 Australian species and although not originally listed as a constituent of the Pseudotaenia generic group by Volkovitsh (2001), it clearly belongs there and is transferred now. As stated in the introduction, the placement of this taxon as a subgenus of the otherwise strictly southern African Chalcoplia by Hołyṅski (1997) is counter­intuitive considering the lack of Gondwanan buprestid relationships that involve only Africa and Australia; any morphological similarities are likely at best convergent and analogous. A revision of Chalcophorotaenia is overdue.</p> </div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03D90925FFA41634FEB6F9D978DC26E9	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Mark Hanlon (in litt.) wrote: “ C. cerata is found in sympatry with Pseudotaenia waterhousei on The Round Hill, Round Hill Nature Reserve, NSW. Adults can be collected on the leaves of mallees (Eucalyptus sp.) during December and January. Adult emergences appear to be dependant on the level of rainfall in the winter/ spring of the prior year.”</p> <p>Remarks. While P. frenchi was overlooked and kept in Chalcotaenia by Obenberger (1926) and Carter (1929), C. cerata was left in Pseudotaenia even though Kerremans was the author of this species, the genus Pseudotaenia (Kerremans 1903), and the last revisor of that genus (Kerremans 1909).</p> </div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03D90925FFA41635FEB6FFA979C32106	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
