The new species is morphologically distinct from\n T.\u2009flavocincta<\/jats:italic>\n and has fixed diagnostic characters that are confined to a geographically and ecologically defined region but are not distinguishable based on DNA \u2018barcodes\u2019. The mtDNA analysis supports the\n \n T.\u2009grandis<\/jats:italic>\n <\/jats:styled-content>\n species\u2010group as monophyletic and affirms some species relationships within the group proposed on morphological grounds. The monophyly of the tribe Stigmoderini Lacordaire, 1857 and its genera\n Stigmodera<\/jats:italic>\n Eschscholtz, 1829 and\n Castiarina<\/jats:italic>\n Gory & Laporte, 1838 were also supported, but not\n Temognatha<\/jats:italic>\n Solier, 1833 in respect to\n Calodema<\/jats:italic>\n Gory & Laporte, 1838,\n Calotemognatha<\/jats:italic>\n Peterson, 1991 and\n Metaxymorpha<\/jats:italic>\n Parry, 1848. Within the tribe Melobasini B\u00edl\u00fd, 2000, there is strong support for the reinstatement of two species from synonymy under\n \n Melobasis simplex<\/jats:italic>\n <\/jats:styled-content>\n (Germar, 1848):\n \n Melobasis sordida<\/jats:italic>\n <\/jats:styled-content>\n (made previously) and\n Melobasis semisuturalis<\/jats:italic>\n reinst. stat.<\/jats:bold>\n , reinstated here but reassigned to the\n \n Melobasis purpurascens<\/jats:italic>\n <\/jats:styled-content>\n species\u2010group. We also report on seven new larval host plant records by matching 13 larval specimens with known adults using DNA \u2018barcodes\u2019 and discuss their significance with an appraisal of relevant existing records. We show that mtDNA\n COI<\/jats:italic>\n \u2018barcode\u2019 sequences can differentiate most buprestid species and are useful for larval identifications and investigating relationships within tribes. Further study with genomic DNA and greater taxon sampling is required to better define species\u2010groups and to validate genera within Buprestidae.\n <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/aen.70077","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,7,1]],"date-time":"2026-07-01T11:22:37Z","timestamp":1782904957000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Temognatha sundholmi<\/i>\n Lang sp. nov.
