Dodomeira forbicionii Bellò & Baviera sp. n. (Figures 6, 6a, 6b, 6c, 6d, 6e, 6f, 40f, 65, 104) Type locality. Sicily, Enna, Erei, Nissoria (Fig. 147). Diagnosis. A small-size species (3.50– 3.50 mm) belonging to the adrianae group with short sub-parallel elytra (length: 2.25–2.25, width: 1.40–1.40, ratio: 1.60–1.60) and body shape sub-cylindrical. Within the species group, it is recognisable by mesorostrum with clavate setae, pronotum more transverse (length: 0.75, width: 0.90, ratio 0.83) and elytral declivity with raised setae (30°–45°). Elytra slightly convex dorsally, clothed by imbricate golden silvery scales and golden setae clavate. Type series. Holotype female with the following labels: [transparent label] genitalia in DHMF // [white, printed] ♀ // [white, printed] “I, Sicilia, Enna, Nissoria, 645m, vaglio Olea, 27.

Total length: 3.50 mm. Body shape slender and subcylindrical. Dorsal vestiture with imbricate silvery-golden scales with metallic sheen.

Rostrum covered by golden silvery scales, transverse (length/width ratio 0.66), sub-parallel to the sides. Pterygia obvious. Epistome absent. Mesorostrum slightly concave, anteriorly with about ten thin, curved, semierect setae. Vertex wide and convex (vertex width / mesorostrum width: ratio 2.00) with clavate (rarely spatulate) setae. Interocular space without visible fovea. Lateral and spherical eyes slightly protruding from outline of head. Antenna robust and quite short with long, raised, silvery, widened setae. Antenna with ratio 0.75 (scape length: 0.75 mm, funicle ...
