Description. Body length 9–25 mm. Body black, but elytra yellowish red, with black pattern. Head subquadrate; antennomere III 1.25 times longer than IV, V as long as III, VI–VIII progressively widened, IX–X than VIII, XI in male ( Fig. 105 View FIGURES 105–111 ) long and narrowed apically; in female ( Fig. 106 View FIGURES 105–111 ) narrowed apical portion longer than basal one. Pronotum ( Fig. 24 View FIGURES 13–24 ) longer than wide, with anterior and basal depressions; mesosternun as in Fig. 110 View FIGURES 105–111 . Each elytron sometimes with a wide fascia or two black small spots on anterior third, one middle and one wide fascia on apical part ( Fig. 111 View FIGURES 105–111 ); last male ventrite widely and deeply concave and depressed, posterior margin with wide and deep middle emargination; aedeagus ( Fig. 109 View FIGURES 105–111 ) with endophallic hook narrow, distal aedeagal hook distinctly curved, short, far from proximal one and close to apex, proximal hook slightly curved and short; gonoforceps ( Figs 107–108 View FIGURES 105–111 ) distinctly narrowed from basal third to apex, in ventral view; narrow and slightly sinuate in apical third in lateral view.
Taxonomic remarks. Species strictly related to Hycleus bipunctatus because of the synapomorphic condition of last ventrite.
The elytral pattern includes variation in the shape of anterior spots, and in some population looks very similar to that of H. bipunctatus which makes the identification very difficult. The anterior depression of pronotum also varies slightly. Hycleus trianguliferus differs from the latter species by the shape of last antennomere, emargination of last ventrite, and the aedeagal hooks.
We already discussed the synonymy between H. trianguliferus ab. reitterioides (Mader) and ab. bushirensis, and H. bipunctatus (Olivier) .
Distribution. This species is widely distributed in Iran, Kazakhstan, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Tajikstan and Afghanistan (Bologna 2008).
