Sarophorus Erichson, 1848 View in CoL
( Fig. 9 View FIGURES 9–11 )
Type species: Sarophorus tuberculatus Erichson, 1848 View in CoL
Sarophorus View in CoL species are medium-sized (length: 6–10 mm), black to dark brown and elongate (see description in Frolov & Scholtz 2003). In some species the body surface is entirely densely punctate whereas in others, most of the pronotal disc is rugose. The clypeal margin is sinuate centrally and rounded to angulate at the sides with the anterior angles of the clypeus strongly protruding and curved upwards in S. bidentatus View in CoL . Sarophorus View in CoL species are superficially similar to those of Pedaria View in CoL ( Table 1).
