Chaetauchenium Tschitchérine, 1900 (Carabidae: Pterostichini) a new species and new status for a lineage from the Valdivian temperate rainforest

A new species Chaetauchenium loki, is described from Parque Oncol in Chile. This species, C. convexipennis (Fairmaire) and Parhypates (Antarctobium) magellanicum (Fairmaire) share a combination of features distinct from all other species attributed to Parhypates and from all other species of South A...
