Abstract

A new species, Caenorhinus (Flavodeporaus) lobanovi sp. n. from Central Laos is described and illustrated. This new species differs from Caenorhinus (Flavodeporaus) guskovae Legalov, 2021 from Laos in the unicoloured body (in C. (F.) guskovae body is yellow; 1st to 10th antennomeres, apex of rostrum, base of elytra, tibia, 1st and 5th tarsomeres black; mandibles, 11th antennomere, metaventrite, metaepisternum, places of tibial attachment, apex of tibia, 2nd and 3rd tarsomeres dark brown; rostrum and head yellow-brown), tibiae without mucro (in C. (F.) guskovae, pro- and mesotibiae with mucro), slightly convex elytral interstriae (in C. (F.) guskovae elytral interstriae more convex) and antennae not reaching the elytra, inserted in the middle of the rostrum (in C. (F.) guskovae antennae inserted near apex of rostrum and extend over humeri). This is the fourth species of the subgenus Flavodeporaus of the genus Caenorhinus Thomson, 1859 described from Laos.
