Two new species of the Neotropical genus Anaides (Coleoptera: Hybosoridae: Anaidinae) from Peru

. Anaides felicitae Ocampo n. sp., and Anaides joaquini Ocampo n. sp. are described from Peru. The new taxa are illustrated and compared with their closely related species in the genus Anaides Westwood.


INTRODUCTION
Anaidinae Nikolajev (1996) is a subfamily of Hybosoridae (Scarabaeoidea) that includes six extant and one fossil genera, Anaides Westwood, Callosides Howden, Chaetodus Westwood, Cretanaides Nikolajev (fossil), Cryptogenius Westwood, Hybochaetodus Arrow, and Totoia Ocampo, and 61 species (two fossil) including the new taxa described herein (Allsopp, 1984;Ocampo, 2005Ocampo, , 2006Ocampo & Ballerio, 2006;Krárl & Hájek, 2014). The genus Anaides was described by Westwood (1845) based on one species, A. fussulatus Westwood. With the two new species described herein this genus currently includes 15 species (one fossil). Anaides is distributed in Central and South America as well as the West Indies (Mexico, Guatemala, El Salvador, Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panama, Barbados, Trinidad and Tobago, Guyana, Suriname, Venezuela, Colombia, Brazil, Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia, and Dominican Republic (fossil) (Ocampo & Ballerio, 2006). In the most recent revision of Anaides (Ocampo, 2006), eight species were described, illustrated and diagnosed and a key to species was provided for all known taxa at that time. In the same contribution, a phylogenetic analysis was conducted showing that Anaides is closely related to a clade that includes Cryptogenius and Callosides.
Species of Anaides are attracted to carrion and dung, suggesting these are their primary food sources, and are also known to be attracted to light (Ocampo, 2006).
As part of a continuous work on the American hybosorid fauna, two new species in the genus Anaides were found in Peru. The purpose of this contribution is to describe these new species, provide diagnostic characters, and compare them with closely related species in the genus.

MATERIAL AND METHODS
Specimens were studied using a stereomicroscope Leica MS5. Body measurements, puncture density and size, and density of setae are based on the following standards: Body length was measured from the apex of the pronotum (at the middle) to the apex of the elytra in mm. Body width was measured across the elytra at the widest point. Punctures were considered "dense" if punctures were nearly confluent to less than two puncture diameters apart, "moderately dense" if punctures were two to six diameters apart, and "sparse" if punctures were more than six diameters apart. Puncture size was defined as "small" if punctures were 0.02 mm or smaller, "moderate" if 0.02-0.07 mm, and "large" if 0.07 mm or larger. Setae were defined as "sparse" if there were few setae, "moderately dense" if the surface was visible but with many setae, and "dense" if the surface was not visible through the setae. Elytral carinae were counted from the elytral suture, with the elytral suture included. Holotype specimen label data was cited verbatim using "/" between the lines of the labels and ";" between labels.
This study was based on specimens from Instituto Argentino de Investigaciones de Zonas Áridas (IADIZA), Mendoza, Argentina, and Museo de Historia Natural (MHNL), Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcos, Lima, Perú.
Allotype female. Length 7.8 mm; width 4.0 mm. The female allotype differs from the holotype in the following respects: protibial spur evenly curved; mesotibia with two spurs, medial spur longer than external.
Etymology. This species is named after Felicitas Ocampo, the author's niece.
Biology. Little is known about the biology of A. felicitae n. sp. Presumably, adults of this species feed on dung as most species in the genus. All specimens from the type series were collected between 800-1,100 m altitude. The habitat where specimens were collected corresponds to the Ucayali Moist Forest.
Diagnosis. Anaides felicitae is distinguished from other species of Anaides by the presence of a median tubercle on the clypeus; two pronotal carinae; two basal tubercles on the elytra (the one closer to the suture elongated); and elytral epipleuron wider at apex, with surface shagreen at base and becoming smooth toward apex. The shape of the parameres, symmetrical and rounded apically is also diagnostic (Fig. 2).
In the key to species of the genus Anaides (Ocampo, 2006), A. felicitate n. sp. keys out close to A. fussulatus Westwood but it can be distinguished from it by the epipleuron distinctively wider at apex and with surface shagreen at base, becoming smooth toward apex.
Etymology. This species is named after Joaquín Ordoñez, the author's nephew.
Biology. Little is known about the biology of A. joaquini n. sp. Presumably, adults of this species feed on dung as most species in the genus. All specimens from the type series were collected between 900-1,700 m altitude. The habitat where specimens were collected corresponds to the Peruvian Yungas.
Diagnosis. Anaides joaquini n. sp. is distinguished from other Anaides species by the presence of a tubercle on the clypeus; two longitudinal, pronotal carinae; pronotal lateral margins with large teeth, lacking notch before anterior angle; elytra lacking basal tubercles; elytral disc convex; and epipleuron wider at apex. The shape of the parameres, symmetrical with apex curved downward, is also diagnostic (Fig. 4).
In the key to species of the genus Anaides (Ocampo, 2006), A. joaquini n. sp. keys out close to A. carioca Ocampo but it can be distinguished from it by the pronotal lateral margins with large teeth, lacking notch before anterior angle (Fig. 3).
