宽额甲属AscelosodisRedtenbacher,1868是青藏高原喜马拉雅地区的1个特有类群,迄今已记录25个物种.本文报道来自西藏的2个新种,分别是直缘宽额甲A.rectussp.nov.和聂拉木宽额甲A.nyalamensissp.nov.,并给出2新种的形态特征描述、形态特征图及其与近缘种的示差鉴别.

Ascelosodis rectus sp.nov.(Figs.1,2)
The new species resemblesAscelosodisschmidiKaszab,1965,with the following differences:anterior margin of clypeal lobe weakly sinuate;genae gradually wider before eyes;pronotum with anterior angles obtuse,rounded apically and with anterior margin shortly prominent in the middle;the fifth abdomen extending the end straight.
Etymology:Named after the fifth abdomen extending the end straight.
Holotype:♂,China,Tibet,Lhazê,Cuola Mountain,28°53.959′N,87°25.182′E;alt.5 064 m,2 August 2011,collected by Ren Guodong.Paratypes:16♂27♀,same data as the holotype.
Ascelosodis nyalamensis sp.nov.(Figs.3,4)
The new species resemblesA.emarginataRen & Shi,2006,with the following differences:Sides of prothorax and elytra with very sparsely ciliate beneath;pronotal surface with coarse punctures,slightly denser on disc than on sides and rugae between disc and sides;elytra base with obscure but finely entire bordered;Elytra surface with sparsely and obscurely shallow punctures.
Etymology:Named after the type locality.
Holotype:♂,China,Tibet,Nyalam,Mainpu,Tulong,28°25.841′N,86°08.840′E,Alt.4 478 m,30 July 2014,collected by Ren Guodong.Paratypes:1♂3♀,collected by Ren Guodong,Bai Xinglong and Shan Junsheng,same data as the holotype.
宽额甲属AscelosodisRedtenbacher,1868[1]的分类体系几经变动,最初被放在鳖甲族Tentyriini[2-3];随后Doyen[4]根据雌性生殖管(internal female tract)和交合刺(spiculum)等特征将其移入Eurymetopini Casey,1907[5],Löbl et al.[6]最新记录其为鳖甲族Tentyriini.迄今该属全球记录25种(Redtenbacher(1868)1种,Bates(1879)6种,Blair(1923)5种,Koch(1943,1948)2种,(1959,1965,1968)3种,Kaszab et al.(1978)1种,Ren & Shi(2006,2007)6种[1,7-21]),已知分布东至中国西藏朗县,西至阿富汗,南至喜马拉雅山脉,北至新疆南缘.该属中国已知20种(含本文新种),主要分布于中国西藏.作者在整理该地区该属标本时,从中发现2个至今尚未报道的物种,分别是直缘宽额甲A.rectussp.nov.和聂拉木宽额甲A.nyalamensissp.nov.模式标本保存于河北大学博物馆.
1 研究材料与方法
研究标本采自中国西藏地区,保存于河北大学博物馆.标本由Nikon SMZ800鉴定,并用Leica M205A stereomicroscope 进行拍照并测量,后期用Adobe Photoshop CS6 进行图片处理.生殖器及第Ⅷ背、腹板均用甘油保存.
