A new species of Allomallodon Santos-Silva and Galileo, 2010, A. bolivianus Wappes and Santos-Silva (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae: Prioninae: Macrotomini), is described from Bolivia and a key is provided to separate the three species now assigned to the genus. Key words. Key, long-horned beetles, Mallodonini, Physopleurus, taxonomy.IntroductionInasmuch as only the female of the new species, Allomallodon bolivianus Wappes and Santos-Silva is available (as the male is not yet known) it is provisionally included in Allomallodon Santos-Silva and Galileo, 2010. The inclusion of the new species in this genus was based primarily on the shape of the labrum as it agrees well with that found in other species assigned to the genus. Other features, such as the pronotal sculpture and the shape of prosternum suggest that it may not belong there. In our view, only the discovery and close examination of the male will allow deciding whether to exclude the new species from Allomallodon and describe a new genus for the species or not. Dorsally the new species resembles some species of Physopleurus Lacordaire, 1869, but the shape of the prosternum is notably different. Species of Physopleurus have the prosternum distinctly tumid and the prothoracic notosternal suture strongly curved from the side of the procoxal cavity (hypomeron notably strongly narrowed laterally, especially centrally), while in the new species the prosternum is not tumid and its prothoracic notosternal suture is straight (hypomeron not narrowed laterally). The rounded apex of the antennal tubercle is also very different from Physopleurus, as well as different from other species of Allomallodon (where they are projected and angulate). Monné (2019) included Allomallodon in Mallodonini Thomson, 1861. Santos-Silva and Galileo (2010) presented detailed information regarding inconsistence of the Mallodonini concept, which, as accepted, allows species of Physopleurus Lacordaire, 1869, to fit into two different tribes (Mallodonini and Mac-rotomini). Perhaps, Monné (2019) is simply following Bouchard et al. (2011) who considered Mallodonini as valid: “we treat this group as a valid tribe as in Drumont and Komiya (2010: 91).”Materials and Methods Photographs were taken with a Canon EOS Rebel T3i DSLR camera, Canon MP-E 65mm f/2.8 1-5X macro lens, controlled by Zerene Stacker AutoMontage software. Measurements were taken in ‘‘mm’’ using measuring ocular Hensoldt/Wetzlar - Mess 10 in the Leica MZ6 stereomicroscope, also used in the study of the specimens.2 • Insecta MundI 0737, December 2019 Wappes and santos-silvaThe collection acronyms used in this study are as follows:ACMT American Coleoptera Museum (James Wappes), San Antonio, Texas, USAFWSC Frederick W.

Paratype female from BOLIVIA, Santa Cruz: 66 km S Camiri, 27.XI.2013, Skillman & Wappes col. (FWSC). Diagnosis. Allomallodon bolivianus Wappes and Santos-Silva differs from the other females of the genus as follows: eyes narrower; scape attaining posterior ocular edge; antennal tubercles rounded at 4 • Insecta MundI 0737, December 2019 Wappes and santos-silvaapex; pronotum without shining callosities on disc (Fig. 1); prosternum about as long as greatest width of procoxa; prosternum mostly glabrous; prosternal process (Fig. 2) with lateral sides subparallel, apex truncate. In A. hermaphroditus and A. popelairei the eyes are wider (Fig. 5-8), scape does not attain the posterior ocular edge, antennal tubercles are narrowed and projected at apex, pronotum has shining callosities on disc, prosternum is shorter than procoxa, distinctly setose, and the prosternal process is notably narrowed about middle with apex rounded (A. hermaphroditum) (Fig. 6) or centrally acute and projected (A. popelairei) (Fig. 8). From A. hermaphroditus it also differs by the outer side of mandibles tumid (not so in A. hermaphroditus). Etymology. The new species is named (bolivianus) for the country (Bolivia) where it is found.Observation. Allomallodon is masculine gender, as originally pointed out. Thus, A. hermaphroditus is correct, not A. hermaphroditum.Acknowledgments Special thanks to Frederick W. Skillman, Pearce, Arizona, USA for making available the paratype.
