Subgenus Apotomopterus (Carabus)

Community and Forum → Insects images → Subgenus Apotomopterus (Carabus)

Aleksandr Safronov, 26.09.2011 22:55

Apotomopterus is the largest subgenus. More than 120 described species, the vast majority of which live in central and southern China. Isolated species live in the border areas with China – northern Vietnam, northern Laos and Burma. Due to the closure of China in a relatively recent period of history, the active study of the subgenus Apotomopterus began in the 90s of the last century and new species and subspecies are still being described. Representatives of Apotomopterus have morphological features that can be considered as primitive. This is not a thickened head, short mandibles, weakly expanded apical segments of all tentacles, often a heart-shaped pronotum, a clear pre-apical notch in females, a tertiary sculpture consisting of 16 identical intervals, of which the primary ones are interrupted by small primary pits. Most of the species are large and very large beetles.

I wonder how the Chinese now feel about the fact that all their carbuses are described by Europeans and the types are not with them?

Dear Honza

Could you update the link to the PDF file of the book? I searched for literature for a long time, but I didn't find it. I would appreciate your help.

Sincerely
Sean Chu
