part of metathorax more or less lanceolate, deep, with distinct keel-like edges (fig. 18). Elytra very finely, densely and roughly punctured (fig. 1). Spurts of metatibiae a little shorter than tarsal joint 1 (fig. 21). Head, pronotum and elytra finely shagreen. Colour brown or dark reddish-brown, dorsum dull or very poorly shining, pronotal disc, head, legs and partly abdomen, as well as sometimes basal parts of elytra lighter, red-brown; antennae and maxillary palpi reddish-brown.

(Macrolederia) oblonga sp.n. 21(2) Lateral margins of pronotum at anterior 1/4 to 1/5 of their length free from edging. Prothoracic process dividing procoxae rather broad, distad not or slightly narrowing, usually more or less rounded (figs. 13, 14). Antennái joint 3 less than twice thinner than 2nd (fig. 40). Club 3 to 4-jointed, rather poorly demarcated (figs. 10, 11). Depression along middle of metathorax narrow, usually in the form of a thin depressed line. Elytra well and more or less coarsely punctured (figs. 42, 43). Metepisterna posteriad rather well narrowed, not less than 3.2 to 3.5 times longer than wide at anterior part. Subgenus Paralederia 22(23) Antennae with 4-jointed, rather loose clubs (fig. 10).

Elytra more or less shining, anteriroly slightly transversely shagreen (fig. 42). Hairs on elytra longer, usually a foregoing hair exceeding beyond base of next one. Pronotum more or less finely and densely punctured, finer than on elytra. Body oblong-oval, 1.84 to 1.96 times longer than wide. Spurs of metatibiae 1.3 to 1.4 times shorter than 1st tarsal joint. Colour red-brown, surface more or less shining, hind margin of pronotum often darker. Length 2.1 to 2.7 mm. Asia Minor, Talysh L. (Paralederia) anatolica J. Friv. 23(20) Antennae with a .rather loose 3-jointed club (fig. 11). Elytra sparser punctured, isthmus between punctures at anterior part usually a little larger than diameter of a puncture (fig. 43). Elytra almost dull, densely and well transversely shagreen (fig. 43). Hairs on elytra thin, decumbent, rather short, usually a foregoing hair not exceeding beyond base of next one. Body oblong-oval, 1,94 times longer than wide. Antennái joint 2 only a little longer and broader than 3rd (fig. 40). Spurs of metatibiae ca. 1.3 to 1.4 times shorter than 1st joint of metatarsi. Colour red-brown. Length 1.7 mm. Asia Minor L. (Paralederia) seidlitzi Rtt. 24(1) Suture dividing metepisterna and metasterna not developed at posterior part (fig. 19). Antennae with a more or less loose 3-jointed club (figs. 9, 12). Metathorax rather coarsely punctured (fig. 19). Depression along middle of metathorax narrow, in form of a depressed line (fig. 19) Subgenus Lederia s.str. 25(26) Spurs of metatibiae shorter, ca. 1.5 times shorter than 1st joint of metatarsi (fig. 22). Lateral parts of pronotum mainly completely edged. Prothoracic process dividing procoxae laterally not edged, it is broader and longer (at least a little extending beyond anterior margin of mesocoxae) (fig. 16). Antennái club rather poorly demarcated, 3-jointed (fig. 9). Base of pronotum very slightly evenly concave. Dorsum clearly transversely shagreen. Elytra moderately largely and sparsely punctured, isthmus between punctures at anterior part usually not less than 1.1 to 1.3 times larger than diameter of a puncture. Body more or less oblong-oval. 1.7 to 1.92 times longer than wide. Colour red-brown, surface dull or slightly shining, often elytra except their base, pronotal hind margin and partly metathorax darker, dark red-brown. Length 1.5 to 2.4 mm. Caucasus L. (Lederia) suramensis Rtt. 26(25) Spurs of metatibiae better developed, usually not more than 1.3 times shorter than 1st tibial joint. Lateral parts of pronotum anteriorly not edged. Prothoracic process dividing procoxae laterally edged, narrower, triangular, apically sharp and almost not exceeding beyond anterior margin of mesocoxae (fig. 15). Antennái club more distinctly enlarged, 3jointed (fig. 12). Base of pronotum very slightly bisinuate. Pronotum and at least anterior part of elytra shining, without clear shagreen. Isthmus between punctures at anterior part of elytra a little larger than diameter of a puncture. Body more or less oblong-oval, ca. 1.75 times longer than wide.
