flowing water, steep banks, Virgin forest cover, 18.IH.1973, leg. J. WAGNER & J. KETHLEY (FMNH, IcT, 1 ?): Alajuela, Esac. Biol. San Ramon, 900m, malaise trap, 1 .VII.-30.IX. 1995, leg. P. HANSON (SEMC, 12). APPENDIX B: Descriptions of new species Codes used for the measurements - HW = head width with eyes; TW = head width at temples; PW = maximum width of pronotum; SW = approximate width of shoulders; AW = maximum width of abdomen; HL = head length from front margin of clypeus to the beginning of neck; EL = length of eye; TL = length of temple; PL = length of pronotum in the middle-line; SL = length of elytra from shoulder; SC = length of elytra from hind apex of scutellum; hpe = combined length of head, pro­notum and elytra; BL = approximate body length. All measured from dorsal view. Xerophygus hreblayi sp. n. (Fig. 121) Type material - Holotype (<?): "Papua Nile Guinée/PNG [PAPUA NEW GUINEA]: EHProv. [Eastern Highlands prov.], Onerunka, umg.[ncar] Kaimantu [6°20'41"N, 145°47'41"W], 5,IX.[19]79, [leg.] W.G. Ullrich" (MNHG). Paratypes (13): same data as holotype (MNHG, 3, SEMC, 1, NHMW, 1, FMNH, 1, BMNH, 1), same, but 18.V.1979 (MNHG, 3), same, but V.1979 (MNHG, 1), same, but IX. 1979 (MNHG, 2). Description - Measurements (in mm, n=10): HW = 0.72 (0.70-0.76); TW = 0.69 (0.66-0.73); PW = 0.63 (0.60-0.66); SW = 0.74 (0.69-0.78); AW = 0.78 (0.74-0.82); HL = 0.58 (0.56-0.60); EL = 0.17 (0.16-0.19); TL = 0.28 (0.26-0.29); PL = 0.54 (0.52-0.56); SL = 0.93 (0.87-0.96); SC = 0.88 (0.84-0.94); BL = 4.50 (4.04-4.88); Head+pronotum+clytra = 2.18 (2.04-2.38) mm. - Colour. Head and pronotum uniformly dark brown, eyes appear dark, but slightly silvery. Elytra bicoloured: the central parts of discs are yellowish light brown, the rest (lateral edges, apical margin and a triangular area around the tip of the scutellum) are darker brown. Abdomen dark brown. Mouthparts and legs are light to medium brown, central parts of antennái segments 3-11 usually darker. - Shape and sculpture. Vertex has 2 shallow impressions (at the sides of the center of midline). The pronotum bears fully developed but rather slightly elevated anchor-like ridge, with 2 straight depressions start­ing from the corners of the anchor heading antedo-laterad. The elevated areas don't differ in shini­ness or punctation, therefore giving the pronotum a rather flat and dull appearance, devoid of characteristic markings. Pronotum has well-formed and simple posterior angles (cca. 95°), sides and posterior edge bear thin and slightly visible rim. - Punctation and microsculpture. Head, pronotum and abdomen finely but distinctly microsculptured. The punctation on the head is distinct and dense, apparent microsculpture in the interspaces (1/2 of puncture diameters). On the pronotum similarly distinct punctures, interspaces 1/1-1/3 puncture diameters (slightly uneven puncture sizes); microsculpture prominent in the interspaces. Elytra has shallow and irregularly sized punctation, interspaces generally about one-fourth of diameters of largest punctures; on the surface between the
