Type locality. The Philippines: Mindanao: Province of Misamis Oriental, near City of Gingoog .

Type material. Holotype ♂ in ZSM, labelled: “C0343 / Gingoog City / Misamis or. / 28-Jul-01” [printed] // “ Calomera / cabigasi / Cassola i.I. / det F. Cassola, 2009” [printed] // “ Holotypus / Calomera / cabigasi n. sp. / F. Cassola dedit., 2010”. [red, printed] // “Zool Staatssamml. / München 2010#8” [printed] . Paratypes. Of the four paratypes listed by Cassola (2011), examined: 1 ♂ in FCCR-MCZR: “ Philippines Mindanao / Bukidnon: Impasugong / 29 April 2002 / S.L. Cabigas leg.” [printed] // “ Paratypus / Calomera / cabigasi n. sp. / F. Cassola dedit 2010” [red, printed] .

Note. The above-cited male paratype ( FCCR-MCZR) was erroneously illustrated as “ holotype ” by Cassola (2011, fig. 1) .

Other material examined. 1 ♂, 1 ♀ in CCJM , 2 ♂♂, 4 ♀♀ in CKGC , 1 ♂, 1 ♀ in JWCM , 1 ♂ in CGD : “ Trento town env. / Agusan del Sur Province / Mindanao – Philippines / local collector 07/2023” . 1 ♀ in MKPC: “ Filippine Mindanao , Agusan del Norte, VI.2012 / det. Sciaky 2017” . 2 ♀♀, in CDCL: “ Philippines / South Luzon / Mindoro Orient // Baco / Mai 2017 / Lumawig leg.” . 1 ♀ in PSCH: “ Philippines, North Luzon / Nueva Viscaya, Kayapa / January 2016 local collector” .

Differential diagnosis. Calomera cabigasi is rather clearly distinguished from all preceding species, with which it shares glabrous genae, by its elytral maculae which are isolated and notably spaced (central macula rarely indistinctly thinly connected with lateromedian one), lateromedian macula placed more dorsally, while small, elongate lateromedian ventral-most spot is perfectly or almost at the same level with central macula ( Figs 139, 141 View FIGURES 139–145 , 146–147 View FIGURES 146–151 , 152, 155 View FIGURES 152–157 , 161–163 View FIGURES 158–166 ). Lateral areas of pronotal surface mostly glabrous or with occasional setae only ( Figs 142 View FIGURES 139–145 , 154 View FIGURES 152–157 , 158–160 View FIGURES 158–166 ). Labrum with mostly markedly blackened anterior area ( Figs 140 View FIGURES 139–145 , 149–151 View FIGURES 146–151 , 153 View FIGURES 152–157 ).

For the description see Cassola (2011).

Distribution. Calomera cabigasi , the only Philippine species of the species-complex, inhabits Mindanao, the type locality is situated near Gingoog City in the Province of Misamis Oriental. Cassola (2011) addressed paratypes also from the province of Bukidnon, in the Northern Mindanao Region, and we have examined specimens from environs of the town Trento in the province of Agusan del Sur. For details of all paratypes see Cassola (2011). The locality Mindoro Oriental (CDCL) and North Luzon, Nueva Viscaya, Kayapa (PSCH), lying in a very long distance from the Mindanao, must be verified.
