Cortodera villosa kuvandykensis ssp. n. is described from Kuvandyk district in the north of Orenburg region of Russsia. The new subspecies is close to C. v. magdeevi Danilevsky, 2011 from Zhiguli Mts., but differs by small number of light forms in the population and details of elytral pubescence. Cortodera villosa chuvilini ssp. n. is described from south-west part of Volgograd region (Golubinskoe village). It differs from all previously known subspecies of C. villosa by small and wide body with domination of specimens with brown elytra. The taxonomy rank is downgrated for C. parfentjevi Miroshnikov, 2007 and C. zhuravlevi Miroshnikov, 2007: C. villosa parfentjevi Miroshnikov, 2007, stat. n. (Crimea) and C. v. zhuravlevi Miroshnikov, 2007, stat. n. (Orenburg environs and NW Kazakhstan). C. zhuravlevi aktolagaica Miroshnikov, 2007 is accepted as C. villosa aktolagaica Miroshnikov, 2007 (Aktolagay Mts. in West Kazakhatan). Резюме. Cortodera villosa kuvandykensis ssp. n. описана из Кувандыкского района на севере Оренбургской области России. Новый подвид близок C. v. magdeevi Danilevsky, 2011 из Жигулей, но резко отличается малым числом светлых форм в популяции и деталями опушения надкрылий. Cortodera villosa chuvilini ssp. n. описана с юго-запада Волгоградской области (Голубинское). Новый подвид отличается от всех описанных ранее подвидов C. villosa маленьким и широким телом с преобладанием в популяции экземпляров, имеющих темно-коричневые надкрылья. Таксономичеcкий ранг двух названий C. parfentjevi Miroshnikov, 2007 и C. zhuravlevi Miroshnikov, 2007 понижен до подвидов: C. villosa parfentjevi Miroshnikov, 2007, stat. n. (Крым) и C. v. zhuravlevi Miroshnikov, 2007, stat. n. (окрестности Оренбурга и северо-запад Казахстана). C. zhuravlevi aktolagaica Miroshnikov, 2007 принимается как C. villosa aktolagaica Miroshnikov, 2007 (горы Актолагай на западе Казахстана). Two rather peculiar series of Cortodera villosa Heyden, 1876 were received by me for study in 2011. A very big series from Orenburg region allows recognizing the taxonomy status of the population known before after a single female. A smaller, but quite representative old series from the western part of Volgograd gegion allows understanding a true nature of three poorly known Cortodera taxa. Cortodera villosa kuvandykensis ssp. n. (Color plate 3: fig. 1–10) Material. Holotype (fig. 1), ♂, Russia, north part of Orenburg region, Kuvandyk district, right bank of Sakmara river, about 2 km westwards Maloe Churaevo village, 51°39’52.25”N / 57°27’12.65”E, 350 m, 7–10.06.2011, A. Shapovalov leg. (author’s collection); 110 paratypes (61♂ and 49♀) with the same label (4♂, 6♀ in author’s collection, 57♂, 43♀ in collection of A. Shapovalov, Orenburg). Description. Body big, elongated, black, often with red abdominal apex, elytra from light-brown (fig. 1, 5–6) to totally black, legs and antennae from totally black to about totally red; pubescence of black elytra usually black; certain specimens with black elytra look a little paler because of brownish dorsal pubescence and a little pale color of cuticle (fig. 9). Head with strongly exposed angulated temples; apical palpal joints triangular, axe-like; antennae totally black, or with partly lightened basal joints, or totally red with partly darkened 1st joint, or red with partly or totally darkened several basal joints; totally red antennae can be also in specimens with black elytra; in males reaching apical elytral forth, in females – apical elytral third; 1st joint about as long as 4th and shorter than 3rd, which is shorter than 5th. Prothorax transverse, in males from about 1.2 to 1.3 (holotype) times wider at base than long; in females – from 1.2 (fig. 6) to 1.4 (fig. 9); with sides rounded or distinctly angulated, especially in females; pronotum in males with long erect and oblique setae, in females with recumbent and oblique setae, sometimes with recumbent setae only; pronotal punctation rather dense, but punctures never conjugated with distinct interspaces, which are wider than dots near middle; with narrow smooth elongated area along middle. Elytra pale-brown (5 males and 2 females) or black (57 males and 47 females), brown elytra can be narrowly darkened anteriorly along suture (fig. 5–6); in females parallelsided or slightly converging posteriorly, in males with sides strongly converging posteriorly; in males about 2.2 times longer than wide, in females – from about 2 to 2.1; in males with several erect setae anteriorly or with oblique setae only; in females elytral pubescence consists of short recumbent setae only; elytral punctation rather dense, the distance between punctures usually smaller than each dot. Legs in males and in females can be totally red with black tarsi; or hind femora with black apices; or middle tibiae with black bases, middle and hind femora with black apices, hind tibiae totally black; or hind legs and middle tibiae totally black; or only anterior tibiae and femora red; or only anterior tibiae partly red; or legs totally black; apices of posterior femora slightly darkened. Abdomen usually black or with red posterior segments (from one to three); posterior margins of last abdominal segments more © CAUCASIAN ENTOMOLOGICAL BULL. 2011 Кавказский энтомол. бюллетень 7(2): 139−141
