Notoxus pachodemba sp. nov.

( Figs. 15 View Figs , 57 View Figs )

Type locality. South Vietnam, Nam Cat Tien National Park.

Type material. HOLOTYPE: J, ‘S VIETNAM, 1.– 15.5.1994 Nam. Cat. Tien Nat. park P. Pacholátko & L. Dembický leg.’ ( NMPC) . PARATYPES: 2 JJ 1 ♀, same data as holotype ( ZKDC).

Description. Male (holotype). Body length 2.7 mm. Identical with N. iuvenis sp. nov. in nearly all external and male characters (see above), differing only by somewhat finer and sparser punctation of pronotal disc, by the protibiae moderately sinuous on the inner side in males, and by the aedeagus ( Fig. 15 View Figs ).

Female. Externally identical with male, except for the simple protibiae.

Variation. Body length (J ♀) 2.6–2.7 mm.

Differential diagnosis. Notoxus pachodemba sp. nov. is very similar and undoubtedly very close to N. indicus and N. iuvenis sp. nov. It can be reliably distinguished from these species only by the slightly modified protibiae in the males, and by the shape of the parameres of the aedeagus (cf. Fig. 15 View Figs versus Figs. 12–14 View Figs ).

Etymology. Dedicated to the collectors Petr Pacholátko and Luboš Dembický (both from Brno, Czech Republic); composed from their surnames as a noun in apposition.

Distribution. Vietnam.
