Abstract

Platiana Schimmel, 1993 is a moderately large genus in Dimini endemic to South East Asia. Hitherto only four species of this genus were known from Peninsular Malaysia. Here, we describe and figure Platiana cechovskyi sp. nov. from the Cameron Highlands. This species is characteristic by its relatively small body, dark coloration, and strongly serrate antennae which are rarely encountered in Dimini. An identification key to the Platiana species from Peninsular Malaysia as well as a distribution map for all known species are provided.

摘要

普拉蒂亚纳·施密尔（Platiana Schimmel）属，1993年建立，是东南亚迪米尼（Dimini）地区的一个中等大小的属。迄今为止，半岛马来西亚仅知该属的四个物种。在此，我们描述并图示了来自金马仑高原的新物种普拉蒂亚纳·切乔夫斯基（Platiana cechovskyi）。该物种的特征是身体相对较小、颜色深、触角具强锯齿，这在迪米尼属中很少见。本文提供了半岛马来西亚普拉蒂亚纳属物种的检索表以及所有已知物种的分布图。
