Type locality. Albanien : Medua [= San Giovanni di Medua , today Shëngjin, Albania] .

Zoufal / Moravian Museum Brno” [white, printed]; “HO- LOTYPE / Amauropus / lobipes Reitter / P. Hlaváč det., 2021” [red, printed]. Note: Photos of original labels are presented in Fig. 4 View FIGURES 1–4 .
Diagnosis. Head with slightly rounded rostrum, lateral carinae well-defined, each eye composed of two ommatidia above long spine; antennae long, clearly exceeding posterior margin of pronotum, with all antennomeres elongate, terminal antennomere slightly asymmetrical.
Redescription. Body ( Fig. 1 View FIGURES 1–4 ) light reddish-brown, shiny, with long, sparse setae on sides of head, pronotum and elytra, disc of pronotum and elytra glossy with several long setae, body length 2.67 mm, maximum width of elytra 0.80 mm.
Head slightly wider than long, rostrum slightly rounded, with median impression, vertex with low convexity, lateral carinae well-defined, supra-antennal tubercules prominent, eyes composed of two ommatidia above long spines, median basal carina well-defined.
Antennae 1.20 mm long, scape short, 1.40 times as long as wide, 1.27 times as long as pedicel, antennomere III, VII and X equally long, slightly longer than IV,VI, VIII and IX which are of equal lengths, antennomere V 1.25 times as long as IV, silhouettes of antennomeres IX and X hexagonal, IX 1.15 times as long as wide, X as long as wide, terminal antennomere 2.6 times as long as wide and 2.9 times as long as X.
Pronotum slightly (1.05 times) longer than wide and about as long as head, well-defined lateral spines located slightly behind middle of pronotum in posterior part, anterior lateral margins convex, posterior lateral margins concave, anterior part about 1.25 times as long as posterior part which is bearing two short lateral carinae, each carina bearing spine.
Elytra about as long as wide and 1.47 times as long as pronotum.
Abdomen slightly shorter than elytra, first visible tergite (IV) five times as long as second (V), third (VI) slightly shorter than second (V), both combined about as long as fourth visible tergite (VII); first visible tergite (IV) lacking external carinae, with well-defined discal carinae, located closer to lateral margin, densely setose area between discal carinae 1.2 times wider than distance between carina and lateral margin, length of discal carinae about one third of tergal length.
Legs long and slender, all femora clavate, tibiae and tarsi slender, mesofemora with long sub-basal spine and large lobe in apical half, mesotibiae thickened at apex.
Aedeagus ( Figs 2–3 View FIGURES 1–4 ) in dorsal view asymmetrical, elongate, 0.65 mm long, apex of median lobe slender, slightly bent to left, with two, long lateral setae, one paramere wide, almost reaching ¾ of length of median lobe, dorsal diaphragm present.
