Résumé
Ceratotrupes gonzaloi sp. nov. urn:lsid:zoobank.org:act: 49D5CB15-8785-47DB-A4A4-865994D4C1C5 Fig. 4 Diagnosis The following characters separate C. gonzaloi sp. nov. from its close relative, C. sturmi: posterior edge of pronotum without margin at middle (Fig. 4C); clypeal horn of male stronger, laterally wider (Fig. 4A, D), tip depressed at middle; pronotal projection larger, with parallel sides (Fig. 4A, D); elytral interstriae very finely and densely punctate. Male genitalia differ as follows: distal tip of right ventral lobe of phallobase straight and directed obliquely upward (Fig. 4J); shorter branch of the bifurcation of right lobe of phallobase distinctly shorter than in C. sturmi (Fig. 4L); parameres differently shaped (Fig. 4F; arrows indicate the main differences); in lateral view, left paramere simple, without distinct lobe beneath apical spur (Fig. 4G). Etymology This species is dedicated to Gonzalo Halffter (1932–2022), a renowned academic, researcher and entomologist, who passed away during the preparation of the current paper. Founder of INECOL and Biosphere Reserves, UNESCO, his research in the biogeography and ecology of beetles is a corner stone for research in Mexico and worldwide. But above all, Gonzalo, Dr Halffter, our “Maestro”, was our mentor, teacher, colleague, and our endearing and lovely friend.

Body black with strong purple to greenish iridescence on pronotum and elytra; dorsally, tegument shining, head and pronotal disc silky; antennal segments brown, antennal club brownish. HEAD. Clypeus obtusely triangular and elongated, with a medial, high triangular horn; from posterior side, horn wide and longitudinally sulcate, tip slightly to distinctly depressed at middle; head punctation very obsolete and superficial; genae squared, with elevated and acuminate angle; frons smooth, unpunctured, with two weak and oblique ridges along inner side of eyes. THORAX. In lateral view, pronotum weakly convex; in dorsal view, posterior edge of pronotum without margin at middle, lateral edges weakly curved from posterior angles to midline, straight and convergent from midline to anterior angles; anterior angles obtuse; pronotal disc either unpunctured or with a few, shallow punctures across midline, sides with strong and coarse punctures sparsely distributed from posterior to anterior angles; in lateral view, anteromedial projection curved upward apically; in dorsal view, projection with sides parallel, tip widely emarginated at middle. Elytral interstriae slightly convex, very finely and densely punctate. Ventral side of thoracic sclerites (i.e., pro-, meso- and metasternum) with long, yellowish to brownish setae. LEGS. Protibiae robust, with six external teeth, ventral side with a longitudinal, crenulated carina; apical spur long and slender; meso- and metatibiae each with four entire, transversal carinae on posterior side; femora unmodified, with long yellowish setae. Sexual dimorphism Female specimens have the clypeal horn distinctly shorter and slightly depressed posteriorly; from above, the clypeal horn is triangular-shaped, apex almost reaching clypeal edge; anteromedial pronotal protuberance callus-like and transverse, depressed on superior side and close to anterior pronotal edge. Female specimens of C. gonzaloi sp. nov. are very similar to those of C. sturmi, but they can be distinguished by the posterior edge of the pronotum not having a margin at the middle, and the presence of very fine and dense punctation on the elytral interstriae. Ecology and biogeography This species occurs in the Sierra Madre del Sur and it seems to be restricted to the surrounding mountains of Omiltemi, Guerrero, where it occurs exclusively in pine forest. Many of the specimens historically identified as C. sturmi in natural history collections instead belong to this new species. Howden (1974, 2003) noticed that specimens identified as C. sturmi showed some geographically restricted differences, such as shape of cephalic horn and genitalia in males, elytral punctation and posterior edge of pronotum with or without margin at middle. During this research we examined the specimens mentioned by Howden (Juquila and Juchatengo, Oaxaca, and Omiltemi, Guerrero; CMNC) and confirm that they belong to different species, namely C. gonzaloi sp. nov. (Omiltemi) and C. sturmi (Oaxaca).

Prédiction machine sur la base complète
Imitation des enseignantsNi prévalence calibrée, ni vérité terrain. Validation humaine à venir. Le volet Gemma est une étiquette directe du modèle pour chaque travail de la base, lue sur la notice réduite au titre. Le volet Codex est un classifieur appris des 10 348 étiquettes directes de Codex et calibré sur les taux pondérés de l'échantillon; les champs sans appui suffisant ne portent aucun appel Codex. Le mode candidate est l'union des deux volets; le consensus est leur intersection. Ces sorties portent le statut machine_predicted_unvalidated et ne sont pas des étiquettes humaines.
