Pseudothysanoes tresmariae

Genus / Species: Pseudothysanoes tresmariae | Image Author: TH Atkinson | Location: México, Nayarit, Islas Tres Marías, María Madre | Image Type: paratype | Collection: Naturhistorisches Museum Wien

Other than the weakly acuminate declivital apex, this is a typical species of Pseudothysanoes. The antennal scape is elongate and the antennal club has complete, horizontal sutures, unlike the case in Phloeocleptus. This species would come out to couplet 23 in Wood’s 1982 key to Pseudothysanoes, along with P. mucronatus Wood (Fig. 13) and P. punctatus. (Atkinson 2023).
