puncture size = 1 x facet, separated on vertex by 2 



diameters, separated on epistome by 1 diameter. Antenna 

 reaching base of pronotum; antennomere III as long as next 3 

 antennomeres combined; antennomeres IX-XI symmetrical; 

 antennomere XI oval, circular to transverse (similar to Fig. 

 6i) . 



Maxillary palp terminal segment semicircular; medial 

 edge straight at base, angle 90°; lateral side rounded, 

 angle obtuse; width = length. Labial palp terminal segment 

 triangular, extended on medial side, narrow, sides rounded, 

 width = 0.8 x length. Labial palp width = 0.5 x maxillary 

 palp width (Fig. 7m). Mentum with plate broadly triangular, 

 length = 0.5 x width, sides slightly convex, ridge medial 

 extension acutely pointed (Fig. 8i) 



Pronotal disc puncture size = 1 x facet, separated by 2 

 to 3 diameters; lateral punctures slightly larger and 

 denser, separated by 1 to 2 diameters. Scutellum 

 pentagonal, length = 0.6 x width. Each elytron with 7 

 visible striae; strial puncture size = 0.5 x lateral 

 pronotal puncture size, becoming finer toward apex; 

 intervals finely punctate, obscured by strong 

 microreticulation . 



Prosternum not keeled, convex; anterior pinch weak, if 

 present (Fig. lOa-b) ; with (female) or without (male) 

 foveate punctures in front of procoxa; coxal lines nearly 

 straight, length = 0.5 x sternal length, lines not 

 surpassing coxae, length = 0.6 x basal width; prosternal
