Revision of the southern African genus Frankenbergerius Balthasar with description of new taxa (Coleoptera : Scarabaeidae : Scarabaeinae)

摘要

The southern African genus Frankenbergerius Balthasar is revised. Two new species, F. opacus sp. n. and F. nitidus sp. n. ( South Africa, Western Cape), and one new subspecies, F. armatus tuberculatus ssp. n. ( South Africa, Mpumalanga), are described. F. imitativus ( Peringuey) is considered a junior synonym of F. forcipatus ( Harold). A key to the species and notes on biology are given.
