Ischnostomiella werneri Beinhundner, 2005 (Fig. 2 C, D) Ischnostomiella werneri Beinhundner 2005: 78; Beinhundner 2017: 367. Remarks. The total length of this species ranges from 8 to 12.5 mm, while its maximum width is 4.0-7.0 mm (Beinhundner 2005, Beinhundner 2017). Specimens regularly exhibit a cretaceous maculation on their elytra, which can vary widely in extent (Fig. 2 D-F; cf. also Beinhundner 2017: 367, figs 1-5). Unfortunately, the collectors of the rather numerous type series have not revealed if the specimens were caught in flight, on the ground or otherwise. Like for I. denticeps, there is still no knowledge on the immature stages of this species. Distribution. This species is currently known only from the type locality of Gweta, situated in north-eastern Botswana (Fig. 3). Data records. Type series: Holotype ♂, Botswana, near Gweta, 30.11.2003, K.
