Coptodryas pubifer Schedl, comb.n.

Coptodryas pubifer (Schedl) comb.n. Xyleborus pubifer Schedl, 1972: 200. Hadrodemius pubifer (Schedl): Wood & Bright, 1992: 819. Taxonomy: I have examined the holotype (NHML). It is clear that the species was incorrectly transferred to Hadrodemius by Wood & Bright (1992). The antenna has the second segment corneous on the anterior face, and a suture visible on the posterior face. The scutellum is not visible on the anterior declivital slope of the elytral bases. These and other characters (Hulcr et al. 2007) indicate that the species should be transferred to the genus Coptodryas Hopkins. Distribution: Brunei, Malaysia (Sarawak).
