Purtroppo non ho nessuna delle specie, quindi non sono in grado di fare alcun confronto. Quello che posso fare è di inserire le descrizioni originali per ognuna. Pachyrhinus cedri Chevrolat, 1866 Pachyrhinus javeti Desbrochers des Loges, 1872 Pachyrhinus lopezi A. Hoffmann, 1956 Pachyrhinus squamosus Kiesenwetter, 1852 ....Buon Lavoro!! ![]() ![]() |

Grazie per la riposta. I didn't know the genus was formerly Scytropus (or Scythropus). P. cedri (6-6,5mm, and differently colored) and P. javeti (5-6mm,) are much too large for my specimens, which are all about 3,7-4,0mm. The size of P. lopezi fits, but this species should have grey-rose squamules, which lack in all my specimens. So it should be P. squamosus. On the other hand the descriptions of squamosus and javeti, which is said to be the most frequent species on Maiorca, not clearly differ, and I have the impression that the size specification for javeti is wrong. Another difference is: squamosus: eyes prominent. javeti: eyes only little prominent. In an old key (Mayer: Bestimmungs-Tabellen der europäischen Coleopteren: Curculionidae 4. Theil) I also found: squamosus: sides of prothorax dinstinctly rounded. Eyes nearly round javeti: sides of prothorax cylindrical, only weakly rounded. Eyes oval. But when I search for pictures in the net, I find photos of french Pachyrhinus with flat eyes and nearly straight prothorax sides (but javeti should be endemic for the Baleares), as well as specimens with strongly prominent eyes and strongly rounded prothorax sides. My own specimens are somewhat in the middle. As a result my impression is, that this part of the genus must be revised, or the distribution for the species has to be clarified. I will label them provisionally as "P. squamosus" because of their small size. Michael As a result I think that the species in the genus Pachyrhinus are still not clearly defined. I will label my speciems as. P. cf. squamosus. Michael |
