Revisional studies on the Luciolinae fireflies of Asia (Coleoptera: Lampyridae): 1. The genus Pyrophanes Olivier with two new species. 2. Four new species of Pteroptyx Olivier and 3. A new genus Inflata Boontop, with redescription of Luciola indica (Motsch.) as Inflata indica comb. nov.

摘要: The Luciolinae firefly genus Pyrophanes is redescribed and a key provided for 7 species, viz. appendiculata Olivier, beccarii quadrimaculata semilimbata (Olivier) similis with Py. elongata Ballantyne sp. nov. similisimma described as new. Macropterous females associated several species have 2 pairs of broad bursa plates. Following an enlarged phylogenetic analysis morphological characters, expanded generic description Pteroptyx Olivier now accommodates four new metafemoral combs. Three these entire light organ in ventrite but are without the hallmark deflexed elytral apices male. first to possess features Pt. sayangia nov., galbina Jusoh surabayia Based on single unusual specimen gombakia here bipartite 7, exceptional incurving lobes along posterior margin which characteristic Pyrophanes.
