New <em>Laparocerus</em> Schoenherr, 1834 from the Canary Islands (Coleoptera, Curculionidae, Entiminae)

This contribution to the knowledge of the genus Laparocerus Schoenherr, 1834 deals with the pending descriptions of ten new species and six new subspecies, needed for the presentation of the phylogram of the Canarian-African clade, where these taxa are included.The new taxa are: Laparocerus auarita n. sp. from La Palma; L. gerodes n. sp., L. crotchi n. sp. and L. sanchezi arures n. ssp. from La Gomera; L. soniae n. sp. from Gran Canaria; and L. abona n. sp., L. tauce n. sp., L. sanctaecrucis n. sp., L. punctiger n. sp., L. canescens n. sp., L. obscurus daute n. ssp., L. dissimilis infernalis n. ssp., L. dissimilis alticola n. ssp., L. tafadensis n. sp., L. tinguaro tabornoi n. ssp., and L. tenuepunctatus oppositus n. spp. from Tenerife. In order to support some comparative diagnosis, redescriptions of Laparocerus tessellatus (Brull., 1839) and L. obscurus Wollaston, 1864 are provided. Laparocereus tanausu Machado, 2007 and L. magnificus Machado, 2011 are recorded for the first time from Tenerife, and the synonymy of Laparocerus excavatus lugubris Wollaston, 1864 with the nominal species is proposed. The total of 62 taxa (species and subspecies) resulting for Tenerife are included in a key in Spanish and English. Drawings of the genitalia of the new taxa and photographs of holotypes are provided
