Taxonomy, Seram Island, Oriental region, Australian region, ChrysidoideaAbstract
Anteon seramense sp. nov. is described from Seram Island (Indonesia). Seram is an island situated in a transition area between the Oriental and the Australian regions. Anteon seramense can be distinguished from the related Australian species A. giluwense Olmi and A. chelogynoides (Perkins) by the different sculpture of the scutum (granulated in A. seramense, punctate and unsculptured among punctures in A. giluwense and A. chelogynoides) and the different distal apex of the protarsal segment 5 (deeply hollow in A. seramense, not hollow in A. giluwense and A. chelogynoides). Anteon seramense sp. nov. can be distinguished from the related Oriental species A. heppneri Olmi and A. thai Olmi by the different shape of the protarsal segment 5 (basal part slightly longer than distal part in A. seramense, much longer in A. heppneri and A. thai).
Una nueva especie, Anteon seramense, es descrita para la Isla Seram (Indonesia). Seram es una isla situada en el área de transición entre las regiones Oriental y Australiana. A. seramense puede ser reconocida de las especies australianas más cercanas (A. giluwense Olmi y A. chelogynoides (Perkins)) por la escultura diferente en el escudo (granulada en A. seramense, y puntuada pero sin escultura entre las puntuaciones en A. giluwense y A. chelogynoides) y diferencias en el ápice distal del segmento 5 del protarso (profundamente cóncavo en A. seramense, y no cóncavo en A. giluwense y A. chelogynoides). A. seramense puede ser diferenciada de las especies orientales más cercanas (A. heppneri Olmi y A. thai Olmi) por la forma diferente del segmento 5 del protarso (la parte basal ligeramente más larga que la distal en A. seramense, y mucho más larga en A. heppneri y A. thai).
