An unusual new species of the genus Anomala Samouelle, 1819 from Vietnam (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae: Rutelinae)

A new species of Anomala related to A.  ardoini Frey, 1971 (Laos) and certain East Palearctic species (A.  gracilenta Reitter, 1903, A.  keithi Zorn, 2011, A.  obscurata Reitter, 1903, A.  palleola (Gyllenhal, 1817) and A. potanini Medvedev, 1949) is described from Dalat Plaeau (Vietnam). This group...

description A new species of Anomala related to A.  ardoini Frey, 1971 (Laos) and certain East Palearctic species (A.  gracilenta Reitter, 1903, A.  keithi Zorn, 2011, A.  obscurata Reitter, 1903, A.  palleola (Gyllenhal, 1817) and A. potanini Medvedev, 1949) is described from Dalat Plaeau (Vietnam). This group of species appears to be unique within the other Anomalini in the structure of the aedeagus in the males and the lateral border of the elytra in the females (uniformly thickened along most of its length, epipleura reduced). It is a single Ruteline species having a Palearctic origin in the fauna of the medium heights of Dalat Plateau (up to 1000 m a.s.l.). Anomala dolichophalla sp. n. differs from the all known species in the extremely elongated phallobase, shape of the parameres, unbordered basis of the pronotum, coloration, spinulose setae of the elytral epipleura, legs and abdominal sternites, etc. In the latter character the new species is reminiscent the species of Spinanomala from which it can be easily distinguished in the larger size and the shape of the aedeagus
