Apical third of Ant 1 and basal two-thirds of Ant 3 black or dark brown; femora reddish brown with apical third or half black; tibiae nearly black. Head wider than pronotum (Fig. 1), HW/PW 5 1.19 (1.11–1.30); Ant 1/Ant 3 5 3.40 (3.20–3.57); labrum with medial lobe slightly protruded anteriorly (Fig. 25); genae long, slightly tumid; eyes large, about 1.8 times as long as genae. Pronotum widest slightly before middle, PL/PW 5 1.56 (1.45–1.62). Elytra with lateral margins nearly parallel; outer angles slightly dentate, not sharply pointed at apex (Fig. 39), EW/PW 5 2.27 (2.09–2.56), EL/EW 5 1.89 (1.81–2.04). Protarsomere 3 strongly asymmetrical in male; tarsal claws with 5–6 pectinations on inner side, length of the longest pectination subequal to width of claw base (Fig. 65). Aedeagus stout (Fig. 108), with apical lamella narrow, thickened and rounded at apex (Fig. 107).</p> <p>Distribution. Angola, Cameroon, Congo, Kenya, Mozambique, South Africa, Senegal, Uganda, Zambia.</p> <p>Remarks. We did not check the type. Our description is based on specimens determined by Basilewsky. Members of this species are readily distinguished from those of other members of the genus by their red pronota and long tarsal claw pectinations.</p></div> 	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03D187BCFFDE480A29A0BF4E2619FB88	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Pronotum reddish brown; elytra with bluish-green luster at basal three-fourths, black or dark purple at apical fourth; hind femora with apical half or two-thirds black, tibiae black; tarsal claw pectinations very short, the longest pectination shorter than one-forth width of claw base.</p> <p>Description. Length: 9.8–11.3 mm, width: 3.2–3.4 mm. Head and abdominal sterna with blue luster; neck, pronotum, scutellum, thoracic sterna, episterna, and epimera, Ant 2–11, and basal half of femora red or brown; elytra with bluish-green luster at basal three-fourths, black or dark purple at apical fourth with an anteriorly directed triangular extension along suture; apical half or two-thirds of femora, tibiae, tarsomeres 1–3, and apical third of Ant 1 black; basal two-thirds of Ant 1, Ant 2–11, tarsomeres 4–5 brown or yellow. Head densely punctate on vertex; labrum with medial lobe slightly protruded anteriorly; Ant 1/Ant 3 5 3.22 (3.13– 3.31); genae developed, strongly tumid; eyes large, convex, 1.8 times as long as genae. Pronotum short, cylindrical, widest slightly before middle, PL/PW 5 1.29 (1.26–1.35), HW/PW 5 1.15 (1.14–1.16); slightly widened from apical angles to middle, then narrowed posteriad, strongly sinuate before basal angles; basal angles obtuse, strongly protruded laterally. Elytra wide, densely punctate throughout; lateral margins nearly parallel in basal forth, distintly widened posteriad to apical fourth, then narrowed to apex; EL/EW 5 1.69 (1.63–1.73), EW/PW 5 2.16 (2.11– 2.25); striae effaced, almost invisible (only striae 1–3 traceable in apical regions); outer apical angles nearly round, only vaguely angulate. Protarsomere 3 strongly asymmetrical in male; tarsal claws with 5–6 min pectinations, length of the longest pectination less than one-fifth width of claw base (Fig. 110). Aedeagus stout, with apical lamella moderately long, thin, linguiform, rounded at apex (Figs. 111–112).</p> <p>Distribution. Malawi.</p> <p>Etymology. This species is named for the pattern of two different colors on the elytra.</p> <p>Remarks. Members of this new species are similar to those of African Dryptini species Drypta ruficollis Dejean, 1831, Drypta thoracica Boheman, 1848, and Dendrocellus australis Péringuey in having red pronota, but differ from them in having slender tarsal claws with short pectinations (in Drypta ruficollis and Drypta thoracica specimens, the tarsal claws are smooth; and in Dendrocellus australis specimens, the tarsal claws have long pectinations). The bicolored elytral color pattern and effaced elytral striae appear to be unique in the genus (in other members of the genus, the elytra are unicolored, and all striae are distinct).</p> </div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03D187BCFFDD480B28E7B85E24B1FC03	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Bhutan, China, India, Indonesia (Java, Sumatra, Sulawesi), Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, Pakistan, Thailand.</p> <p>Remarks. The syntype of D. coelestinus (Klug) we examined is teneral, with bluish purple luster on pronotum and elytra. D. parallelus Chaudoir was described from Sumatra. When we compared the type of D. parallelus with that of D. coelestinus, we were unable to find any significant difference.</p> <p>Chaudoir (1861: 545) treated D. coelestinus (Klug) as a synonym of D. unidentatus (Macleay). Andrewes (1927: 100) disagreed with this treatment and pointed out that D. coelestinus (Klug) was probably a pale variety of D. geniculatus (Klug). However, adults of D. coelestinus have very much shorter tarsal claw pectinations (Andrewes also noticed this character, 1927: 100) and males have a triangular lamella of the aedeagus, and, therefore, this species is distinct from D. geniculatus (Klug).</p> </div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03D187BCFFDC481429A6BFCF250DFAD0	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Elytra long, lateral margins nearly parallel in both sexes; outer angles slightly dentate, EW/PW 5 2.21 (2.03–2.31), EL/EW 5 1.99 (1.93–2.05). Protarsomere 3 slightly asymmetrical in male; tarsal claws with 3 or 4 pectinations, length of the longest pectination less than half width of claw base (Fig. 67). Aedeagus with apical lamella thin, triangular (Figs. 73–74).</p> <p>Distribution. China, India, Indonesia (Java, Sumatra, Kalimantan), Japan, Laos, Pakistan, Thailand.</p> <p>Remarks. We have not examined the type. Members of this species are readily recognized by the strongly protruded medial lobe of the labrum, which is unique in the genus. Dendrocellus confusus is widely distributed in southeastern Asia from Japan and China to Java. Hansen (1967: 406) stated that adults of this species were similar to those of D. geniculatus (Klug) in having short tarsal claw pectinations. However, he wrongly characterized D. geniculatus (Klug) (see remarks under D. geniculatus). Actually, adults of this species are similar to those of D. coelestinus (Klug) in having short claw pectinations, but different from the latter in having a longer medial lobe of the labrum and smaller ratio of Ant 1/Ant 3.</p> </div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03D187BCFFC34815293CB9822467FAD0	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Because Sloane’s description (1907: 473) is detailed, we simply add the following: length 9.1–10.7 mm, width 2.6–3.5 mm. Femora brown, with apical ninth or tenth blackish brown; tibiae brown. Ant 1/Ant 3 5 3.37 (3.13–3.50); HW/ PW 5 1.16 (1.09–1.19); PL/PW 5 1.58 (1.53–1.65); EW/PW 5 2.41 (2.22–2.58); EL/EW 5 1.74 (1.62–1.81); labrum with medial lobe slightly protruded anteriorly; genae short, slightly tumid; eyes large, about 2.5 times as long as genae; elytra with lateral margins nearly parallel in both sexes; elytral outer angles strongly dentate, sharply pointed at apex (Fig. 42); protarsomere 3 slightly asymmetrical in male; tarsal claws with 5 or 6 pectinations, longest pectination slightly longer than width of claw base (Fig. 58). Aedeagus with apical lamella narrow, slightly digitiform (Figs. 95–96).</p> <p>Distribution. New Guinea.</p> <p>Remarks. We have not examined the type. Members of this species can be recognized by their brown femora with very short dark apices. In most specimens, the elytra possess strongly dentate outer angles as described by Sloane (1907: 473), and in some specimens, the outer angles are sharpened into a short spine (e.g., from Jule Island). We found one specimen (in CAS) of this species with obtuse outer angles; but because it is similar to other specimens of this species in other characters, including shape of the aedeagus, this is probably just an abnormal specimen. This species is the only member of Dendrocellus distributed in New Guinea and appears to be endemic to this island.</p> </div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03D187BCFFC1481729AAB865240DFB68	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Black with green or blue luster, often mixed with coppery luster; Ant 1 with apical third dark brown, Ant 3 with basal two-thirds slightly darker than apical third; femora yellow, with apical sixth or seventh blackish brown; tibiae yellow. Head wider than pronotum, HW/ PW 5 1.24 (1.18–1.31); Ant 1/Ant3 5 3.63 (3.46–3.76); labrum (Fig. 26) with medial lobe slightly protruded anteriorly; genae short, tumid; eyes large, about 2.6 times as long as genae. Pronotum widest at middle, slightly narrowed anteriorly, PL/PW 5 1.51 (1.45–1.63). Elytra with lateral margins slightly widened posteriad to apical third, then narrowed gradually to outer apical angles in female (Fig. 8), nearly parallel in male; EL/EW 5 1.82 (1.69–1.89), EW/PW 5 2.29 (2.10–2.47); outer angles obtuse or slightly dentate (Fig. 40), punctation of intervals as in Fig. 44. Protarsomere 3 slightly asymmetrical in male (Fig. 52); length of the longest tarsal claw pectinations slightly shorter than width of claw base (Fig. 64). Last sternum as in Fig. 47 or 49. Aedeagus with apical lamella narrow, digitiform, apex thickened (Figs. 87–88).</p> <p>Distribution. Bangladesh, Bhutan, Cambodia, China, India, Indonesia, Japan, Laos, Malaysia, Pakistan, Philippines, Sikkim, Thailand, Vietnam.</p> <p>Remarks. We compared the types of Dendrocellus gilsoni (Dupuis) with that of D. geniculatus (Klug) and no significant difference was found. Hansen (1967: 405) described D. gilsoni continentalis from Laos, stating that it differs from the nominate subspecies in having a shorter testaceous portion of Ant 1 at base, longer black portion of femora at apex, and more convex elytral intervals. We examined many specimens with these features from China, Vietnam, Thailand, and Philippines, and no significant difference was found except for the femora black at apical fifth and Ant 1 brown at apical two-fifths. In our opinion, these are just variant forms of D. geniculatus (Klug). Moreover, Hansen (1967: 401) stated D. geniculatus (Klug) has short tarsal claw pectinations. Actually, D. geniculatus (Klug) has long and fine tarsal claw pectinations (Fig. 64).</p> <p>D. geniculatus (Klug) is widely distributed in southeastern Asia, from India east to Japan and south to Java. Its members can be recognized by the following combination of character states: small size (usually less than 10 mm), large ratio of Ant 1/Ant 3 (3.46–3.76), elytra often with coppery luster, elytral outer angles obtuse or slightly dentate, tarsal claw pectinations fine and long, lamella of aedeagus very narrow and thickened at apex. Adults of several species (i.e., D. coelestinus, D. confusus, D. crassus; see ‘‘Specimens examined’’ for each species) often have been wrongly determined as D. geniculatus (Klug).</p> </div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03D187BCFFC0481229A4B8EA241EFB54	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

B. Liang &amp; D. H. Kavanaugh 2006’’ [red label].</p> <p>Description. Length 10.0 mm, width 3.2 mm. Black with blue luster, apical twothirds of Ant 1, Ant 2 and basal two-thirds of Ant 3 blackish brown, basal onethird of Ant 1, apical one-third of Ant 3 and Ant 4–11 brown; mandibles and palpi brown; tibiae and apical one-third of femora black, basal two-thirds of femora dark red, tarsi dark brown. Head with vertex slightly convex, densely punctate; Ant 1/Ant 3 5 3.33; labrum with medial lobe slightly protruded anteriorly; genae long, distinctly tumid; eyes small, 1.9 times as long as genae. Pronotum densely punctate, PL/PW 5 1.36, HW/PW 5 1.06, widest slightly before middle; apical angles round, lateral margins straight and widened from apical angles to widest point, then narrowed posteriorly and sinuate to basal angles; basal angles acute, pointed laterally; lateral furrow distinct; basal foveae deep; middle line fine. Elytra short and wide, lateral margins widened from base to apical third, then narrowed to apex; EL/EW 5 1.56, EW/PW 5 2.22; intervals slightly convex, moderately punctate, interspace between two adjacent punctures 1.5–2.0 times diameter of punctures; outer angles strongly dentate, apex pointed (similar to Fig. 41). Tarsal claws with 5–6 long pectinations, length of individual pectination subequal to width of claw base (similar to Fig. 60).</p> <p>Distribution. Myanmar.</p> <p>Remarks. In his original description of D. gestroi, Bates gave no indication of the number of specimens in his type series. This means that, although only a single female specimen is to be found in the MCSN collection, bearing both ‘‘typus’’ and ‘‘syntypus’’ labels (see above), it must, according to the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature (Article 73.2), be considered a syntype and designated as a lectotype.</p> <p>The single known specimen of this species is similar to those of D. unidentatus (Macleay) in having acute elytral outer angles, long tarsal claw pectinations, and black tibiae, but differs from the latter in having a short pronotum (PL/PW 5 1.36, but 1.50–1.67 in D. unidentatus) and wider elytra (EL/EW 5 1.56, but 1.67– 1.93 in D. unidentatus). Its acute elytral outer angles and long tarsal claw pectinations are different from those of D. nepalensis (Hope) and D. kulti (Jedlicka) adults. The dark red base of the femora and small eyes of this specimen (and presumably all members of this species) are apparently unique within the genus.</p> </div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03D187BCFFC5481329A3B92D27FDFB91	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Barway (near Chota Nagpur), India.</p> <p>Diagnosis. Femora brown with apical sixth or seventh dark brown; tibia brown; apical two thirds of Ant 1 black; elytral outer angles slightly dentate; aedeagus with apical lamella short, round at apex (Fig. 99).</p> <p>Description. Length 9.2–10.5 mm, width 2.6–3.1 mm. Black with green luster, mixed with some copper luster, apical third of Ant 1 black, basal two thirds of Ant 1, Ant 2–11 brown; mandibles and palpi brown; tibia and apical sixth or seventh of femora dark brown, basal two-thirds of femora brown.

In fact, we had not distinguished this species from D. geniculatus (Klug) until the specimens were dissected for genitalia comparison. Males can be distinguished from those of D. geniculatus (Klug) by the short and round lamella of the aedeagus. Moreover, femora of both sexes of this new species are brown with dark brown apex, whereas the femora of most D. geniculatus (Klug) specimens, including those of the holotype, are typically yellow with a black apex. Some specimens of D. geniculatus (Klug) do possess brown femora (e.g., from Vietnam and Sumatra), but the apex is still black, not dark brown.</p> </div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03D187BCFFC4481C292AB85D2447FB92	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Length 9.6–11.6 mm, width 3.2–3.9 mm. Black with blue luster; Ant 1 pale yellow or with apical third brown; femora black with blue luster, tibiae yellow (dark brown in specimen from Hubei). Head almost equal in width to 26 pronotum, HW/PW 5 1.03 (0.97–1.10), Ant 1/Ant3 5 3.39 (3.13–3.62); labrum with medial lobe slightly or moderately protruded anteriorly; genae short, distinctly tumid (less so in males); eyes large, slightly protruded laterally, 2.6 times as long as genae.

Protarsomere 3 slightly asymmetrical in male; tarsal claws with 3–5 short pectinations, length of individual pectination less than half width of claw base (similar to Fig. 64). Aedeagus with apical lamella thin, wide, linguiform (Figs. 81–82).</p> <p>Distribution. China (Hubei, Taiwan, Tibet, Yunnan).</p> <p>Remarks. We compared type specimens of Dendrocellus kulti kulti (Jedlicka) and D. kulti reconditus (Hansen) and found no significant difference, except that the former (length 9.6 mm) is slightly smaller than the latter (length 11.4– 11.6 mm). Members of this species can be recognized by their short pronota, blue elytra and black femora. This seemed to us at first to be just a blue color variation of D. nepalensis (Hope); but the color is very stable in all specimens we examined, and we treat it as a distinct species. Dendrocellus kulti (Jedlicka) is distributed only in China, from Tibet to Taiwan, its range partly overlapping with that of D. nepalensis Hope.</p></div> 	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03D187BCFFCA481E296AB81B2632FD73	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Pronotum red with purple luster; femora with apical half black, tibiae black; tarsal claw pectinations extremely short, the longest pectination shorter than one-fifth width of claw base (Fig. 70).</p> <p>Description. Length: 9.8–10.9 mm, width: 2.9–3.4 mm. Head and abdominal sterna with blue luster; neck, pronotum, scutellum, thoracic sterna, episterna, and epimera, Ant 4–11, and basal half of femora red or brown; pronotum with purple luster; elytra with green luster; apical one-third or apical half of hind femora, tibiae, and apical half of Ant 1 black; tarsomeres, Ant 2, Ant 3, and basal half of Ant 1 dark brown. Head densely punctate on vertex; labrum with medial lobe slightly protruded anteriorly; Ant 1/Ant 3 5 3.02 (2.88–3.14); genae oblique, hardly tumid; eyes large, convex, 2.5 times as long as genae. Pronotum short, cylindrical, widest at apical third, PL/PW 5 1.38 (1.34–1.43), HW/PW 5 1.19 (1.11–1.26); slightly widened from apical angles to anterior one-third, then narrowed posteriad, slightly sinuate before basal angles; basal angles obtuse, weakly protruded laterally. Elytra nearly parallel in basal half, slightly widened posteriad to apical fourth, then narrowed to apex; EL/EW 5 1.85 (1.79–1.99), EW/PW 5 2.16 (1.95–2.26); striae shallow, punctate; intervals flat, densely punctate; outer apical angles nearly rectangular, not pointed (Fig. 38). Protarsomere 3 strongly asymmetrical in male; tarsal claws with 3–5 min pectinations, length of the longest pectination less than one-fifth width of claw base (Fig. 70). Aedeagus stout, with apical lamella moderately long, thin, rounded at apex (Figs. 105–106).</p> <p>Distribution. Congo, Zambia.</p> <p>Etymology. This species is named for the very short pectinations on its tarsal claws.</p> <p>Remarks. Members of this new species are similar to those of another African Dendrocellus species, D. bicoloripennis n. sp., but differ from them in having unicolorous green elytra with distinct humeri and nearly parallel lateral margins. In D. bicoloripennis adults, the elytra are bicolored bluish green and dark purple or black with indistinct humeri and lateral margins distinctly widened posteriorly.</p> </div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03D187BCFFC9481F28E2BEFF24E1FD50	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Schmidt-Göbel has been recognized as the author of this species, but this is incorrect. When he described his new genus, Dendrocellus (Schmidt-Göbel 1846), he included Drypta flavipes Wiedemann in that genus and redescribed that species, based on specimens that he had misidentified. He clearly did not intend to describe a new species at that time. Chaudoir (1861: 546) recognized that Schmidt- Göbel’s description of D. flavipes Wiedemann actually represented a distinct and new species, for which he provided the name, Dendrocellus rugicollis. According to Article 72.4.2 of the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature, when a new nominal species group taxon is based on a published misidentification by an earlier author, the type series consists of or includes the specimens that had been misidentified. Consequently, the specimens studied by Schmidt-Göbel constitute the type series for D. rugicollis Chaudoir; and we have selected one of two Schmidt- Göbel specimens in NMPC as lectotype, the other as paralectotype.</p> <p>Andrewes (1921: 173 [in a footnote], and again in 1923: 8) treated the name D. flavipes Schmidt-Göbel as a synonym of Dendrocellus geniculatus (Klug). When we examined Schmidt-Göbel’s specimens, we found that they possess quite long tarsal claw pectinations (Fig. 57) and an aedeagus with linguiform lamella; and this species, therefore, is clearly distinct from D. geniculatus (Klug).</p> </div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03D187BCFFCD481B2982B8E52460FA07	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

(1987: 311) stated the following: ‘‘…Melbourne, Vic., this locality seems to be an error as the species distribution is limited to northern Qld.’’. The actual distribution of D. smaragdinus needs further clarification.</p> <p>The description of D. smaragdinus was based on a single female specimen. It may be simply a dark variation of D. geniculatus (Klug), with blackish tibia and tarsi. Comparison of male genitalia is required to resolve the status of this nominal species. Since its original description, D. smaragdinus has been compared only by Sloane (1907: 473, based on his specimen, not the type) and only with his D. elegans. However, we have found that many of Sloane’s comparisons were inaccurate. For example, he claimed that D. elegans members have (1) pronota with lateral margins more deeply sinuate posteriorly and more strongly reflexed laterally toward the base, and (2) elytra wider, more ampliate, and more declivous basally than D. smaragdinus members. This is incorrect, and we suspect that his comparison was based on a D. queenslandicus specimen rather than one of D. smaragdinus.</p> </div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03D187BCFFF24826299EB9552618FBB3	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Black with green luster, apical third of Ant 1 and basal two-thirds of Ant 3 black or dark brown, basal third of Ant 1, apical third of Ant 3, and Ant 4–11 brown; mandibles and palpi brown; apical fourth of femora black, basal three fourths yellow; tibiae and tarsi yellow. Head (Fig. 32) with vertex convex, densely punctate; Ant 1/Ant 3 5 3.60 (3.46–3.86); labrum with medial lobe slightly protruded anteriorly; genae short, slightly tumid; eyes large, 2.9 times as long as genae. Pronotum densely punctate, PL/PW 5 1.52 (1.48–1.59), HW/PW 5 1.21 (1.13–1.28), widest slightly before the middle; apical angles round, lateral margins slightly widened from apical angles to widest point, gently narrowed behind, then strongly sinuate to basal angles; basal angles obtuse, pointed laterally; lateral furrow indistinct; basal foveae shallow; middle line fine.

Protarsomere 3 slightly asymmetrical in male; tarsal claw with 5 long pectinations, length of individual pectination subequal to width of claw base. Aedeagus with apical lamella thin, slightly digitiform, not thickened at apex (Figs. 93–94).</p> <p>Distribution. Indonesia (Ambon, N. Sulawesi, Ternate).</p> <p>Remarks. This species was described based on a single female specimen. Specimens from Ambon, northern Sulawesi, and Batchian are similar to the type from Ternate, based on color of femora (apical fourth black) and ratio of Ant 1/ Ant 3 (3.46–3.86), but slightly smaller (length 8.2–9.5 mm) than the type (length 10.3 mm). The apical black portions of the femora in the specimen from Sulawesi are slightly shorter than in other specimens of this species, nearly as in specimens of D. javanaus in this regard, but different from the latter in having oblique, only slightly tumid genae (genae less oblique and moderately tumid in D. javanus specimens).</p> </div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03D187BCFFF14827298AB83F2629FBB7	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Tarsal claws with 6 long pectinations, the longest pectination subequal to the width of claw base (Fig. 59).</p> <p>Distribution. Philippines, Indonesia.</p> <p>Remarks. Members of this species are similar to those of D. unidentatus (Macleay) in having long claw pectinations and a large ratio of Ant 1/Ant 3, but differ in having a shorter pronotum, nearly black elytra, and black femora. They are also similar to members of D. gestroi Bates, as stated by Heller (1921: 303), but differ in having a longer pronota than D. gestroi members. The femora and tibiae of adults of D. schultzei are all black, which is unique within the genus.</p> </div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03D187BCFFCC482428A7BA0024B7FB22	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
