Kirschenhofer, E.: New and little-known species of Carabidae from the Middle East and Southeast Asia Coleoptera, Carabidae: Lebiini, Brachinini)
40 E. Kirschenhofer (4.5 mm), stouter and more oval. Its spots are similar but not as extensive as in L. nepalensis sp. n., with the postero-median spot connected to roundish outer spot by a thin bridge only (for spots of L. farai see JEDLICKA 1963: 326). Pseudocalleida gen. n. (tribe Lebiini) Type species - Pseudocalleida pabangensis sp. n. Description - Shape rather flat, broadly oval; last labial and maxillary palpomeres spindle-shaped (female), penultimate segment of labial palpi with 2 setae. Head: with large eyes and very reduced temples; labrum wider than long, anterior margin feebly sinuate. Pronotum: wide; anterior angles without setae, posterior angles obtuse-angled; base bilaterally weakly declivous, without angular incision. Elytra: with metallic lustre, each with a reddish spot anteriorly of middle; with distinct striae; with 3 setigerous punctures on third interval, fifth interval without punctures, rearing margin without incision. First metatarsomere grooved distally; tarsi glabrous dorsally; protibiae with longitudinal groove; fourth tarsomere deeply bilobate; claws smooth. Mentum deeply incised; ventral denticle medially with two distal brushes, fused to paraglossae; metepisterna smooth, slender, longer in middle than anterior width, clearly narrowing posteriorly. Comparisons - Differences to genus Calleida LATREILLE, 1824: body shape short and oval, thus well distinguished from the elongated Calleida species. The last labial and maxillary palpomeres are spindle-shaped whereas the last maxillary palpomere is inflated and the last labial palpomere is mostly narrower and never spindle-shaped in Calleida. The tarsal claws are serrated in Calleida , smooth in Pseudocalleida. The three proximal antennomeres are glabrous in both genera, but longer and more slender in Calleida, broader and shorter in Pseudocalleida. Pseudocalleida pahangensis sp. n. (Fig. 30) Type material - Holotype (female): "W- Malaysia - Pahang, Banjaran Benom Mts., 20 km S of Kampong Ulu Dong, 17.-23.IV. 1997, 1500-1900 m, P. Cechovsky leg." (CAD). Description - Habitus: Fig. 30. Length 6.2 mm, width 2.9 mm. Colour and lustre: head and pronotum reddish yellow; elytra steel blue, suturai interval brownish, with two oval elongate reddish yellow spots anteriorly, covering intervals 4-5 and inner margin of 6; dorsum glabrous and smooth; head rather dull, pronotum and elytra very shiny; venter Annls hist.-nat.
