medium brown with broad lateral and narrow sutural white borders, 
Male.—Pronotum 0.9 by 1.3 mm.; front margin semicircular, hind 
margin straight or slightly emarginate, hind angles slightly acute; 
disc pale yellow or orange, lighter along side and front margins. 
Scutellum dark brown. Mesonotal plates light brown. Elytron 
about 3.6 by 0.9 mm.; nearly parallel-sided to apical fourth where 
taper begins in both margins; medium brown, lateral border white 
and about one-fifth elytral width, sutural border white and very nar- 
row; vestiture light, fine, and fairly sparse. Head width 0.83 mm. 
Eye length 0.5 mm. Frons width 0.27 mm., black, slightly concave; 
interocular margins slightly divergent. Maxillary palpi medium 
brown; labial palpi white. Antennae 1.4 mm.; dark brown; seg- 
ments 6 to 8 each about twice as long as wide. Legs and ventral 
surface of thorax dark brown; claws light brown; tibial region too

brown, 6 to 8 white; pygidium ogival, 0.21 by 0.24 mm. Sternites 
2 to 4 dark brown, 5 partly infuscate basolaterally, 6 to 9 white; 6 
slightly, 7 and 8 moderately notched at centers of hind margins. 
Aedeagus (pl. 2, fig. 13, a—c) white except for a slight preapical infus- 
cation of the inner surfaces of the lateral lobes and a strong apical 
infuscation of the median lobe; lateral lobes slender, flattened later- 
ally, widely separated from median lobe except at apices, evenly 
curved, tips slightly expanded dorsally and tilted inward at about 
45° so as to overlap slightly the tip of the median lobe, toothed along 
inner surfaces in apical half; median lobe slender, covered dorsally by 
an apically black sclerotized plate, which extends posteriorly nearly 
to apices of lateral lobes and is there expanded laterally in a pair of 
teeth; ventrobasal part of sclerotized sheath of median lobe expanded 
laterally into small knobs.
