mentum. Apex of mentum with triangular medial tooth. Antenna 10-segmented; club slightly shorter than other segments combined, approximately equal to clypeal length. Pronotum: Surface glabrous, sparsely punctate, with moderate punctures. Marginal bead weak laterally, absent apically and basally. Elytron: Surface glabrous; longitudinal striae weakly punctate, punctures moderate with dark coloration; intervals sparsely punctate to impunctate. Suture with distinct apical spine (Fig. 5). Pygidium: Width approximately 2.4 times length medially. Surface weakly rugose, weakly convex, glabrous except near apex; setae short, tawny. Venter: Thorax sparsely setose; setae cream-colored. Mesothoracic process strongly produced, projecting anteriorly past protrochanter; apex rounded; shape conical-elongate, ventrally flattened. Abdomen glabrous. Apical spiracles not extruding. Legs: Protibia with 3 teeth in apical half; first tooth largest, second, third teeth sequentially smaller. Mesotibia and metatibia widest medially. Protarsomeres 2- 4 wider than long, cup-shaped. Protarsomere 3-4 with internoapical stridulatory ridge. Protarsomere 5 with internomedial tooth bearing stridulatory ridge. Mesotarsomere and metatarsomere 5 with internobasal tooth. Unguitractor plate cylindrical, with 1 apical and 1 subapical seta. Modified protarsal claw longer than protarsomere 5, greatly thickened and elongate when compared with other claw, dorsoventrally flattened, apex unevenly bifurcate. Modified mesotarsal and metatarsal claws elongated with ventral tooth, not thickened. Male Genitalia: Parameres 1.2 times longer than length of phallobase. Parameres smooth, with sharp lateral hook near apex (Fig. 18). Female (n=26). Length 22.7-27.4 mm, width 13.6-17.5 mm. As male except in the following respects. Head: Antennal club approximately equal to segments 2-7. Legs: Protarsomere 3-4 without internoapical stridulatory ridge. Protarsomere 5 with internomedial tooth absent. Mesotarsomere and metatarsomere 5 internobasal tooth reduced to swelling or absent. Modified protarsal claw with ventral tooth, not thickened. MONOGRAPHIC REVISION OF PLATYCOELIA 65 DIAGNOSIS. This species is distinguished from all other species in the genus Platycoelia by the following combination of characters: frontoclypeal suture complete; apex of clypeus not reflexed; labrum with a broad, triangular apical tooth strongly overlapping the mentum; mentum with a distinct tooth curved into the oral cavity; antenna 10-segmented; protibia with 3 prominent teeth; elytral suture distinctly yellow, with the apex forming an acute spine; elytron without yellow, longitudinal lines; elytral apices not capable of completely covering the pygidium; metasternum with a broad, reddish-brown medial stripe; abdominal sternites reddish-brown; parameres with the apex rounded, expanded; parameres apicolaterally with a triangular hook. DISTRIBUTION (Fig. 47). Central to southern Perú. Found primarily in the puna and yungas regions of the Andes Mountains. LOCALITY DATA. 43 specimens examined from AMNH, CASC, DEIC, DJCC, HAHC, ISNB, LACM, MGFT, SMTD, USNM, ZMHB, ZSMC. PERÚ (41). CUSCO (2): Vilcanota. LIMA (3): Callanga. HUÁNUCO (4): Tingo María. JUNÍN (26): Chanchamayo, La Merced, Perené, Vitoc. NO DATA (6). NO DATA (2). One paralectotype is labeled “Bolivie Ocobamba.” Since there are several localities called Ocobamba in Perú but none in Bolivia I considered this specimen to be from Perú with no further data. One specimen labeled “Zatzayacu, Ecuador” is considered to have no data. This locality is far out of range for the species and too low in elevation to support populations of most Platycoelia species. TEMPORAL DATA. January (1), March (4), June (1), October (13), December (1).
