Contributions to Agrypninae (Coleoptera: Elateridae) fauna of Pakistan with four new species and three new records

Bu çalışmada, Adelocera baghensis n.sp., Agrypnus baghensis n. sp., Lanelater pirsuhawaensis n. sp. ve L. pulandriensis n. sp. olmak üzere dört yeni tür tanımlanmış, Adelocera nitidus (Candéze), Agrypnus crenicollis (Ménétriés 1832) ve Lacon modestus (Boisduval 1835) türleri Pakistan faunası için yeni kayıttır. Lacon modestus türünün erkek üreme organı ilk defa çizilmiş ve Pakistan Adelocera Latreille 1829 cinsinin tür teşhis anahtarı hazırlanmış, Agrypnus Eschscholtz 1829, and Lanelater Arnett 1952 cinslerinin tür teşhis anahtarları güncellenmiştir.

Pakistan Agrypninae faunasına (Coleoptera: Elateridae: Agrypninae) dört yeni tür ve üç yeni kayıt ile katkılar

In this study, four new species, which are Adelocera baghensis n. sp., Agrypnus baghensis n. sp., Lanelater pirsuhawaensis n. sp. and L. pulandriensis n. sp., were described and Adelocera nitidus (Candèze 1857), Agrypnus crenicollis (Ménétriés 1832) and Lacon modestus (Boisduval 1835) are new records for the fauna of Pakistan. Male genitalia of Lacon modestus is illustrated for the first time and determination key of the genus Adelocera Latreille 1829 was prepared and determination keys of the genera Agrypnus Eschscholtz 1829, and Lanelater Arnett 1952 of Pakistan were revised.
