118 

 separated by 1 to 2 diameters. Scutellum pentagonal, length 



= 0.5 x width. Each elytron with 7 complete striae; stria 



VIII present at base and apical half, often obscured by 



microreticulation and interval punctation; strial puncture 



size at base = pronotal disc puncture, gradually becoming 



finer posteriorly; interval punctures fine, often obscured 



by microreticulation. 



Prosternum strongly keeled and pinched anteriorly; with 

 (female) or without (male) foveate punctures in front of 

 procoxa; coxal lines slightly arched, length = 0.5 x sternal 

 length, lines barely surpassing coxae, length = basal width; 

 prosternal plate flat, apical width = 0.8 to 1.0 x basal 

 width; base concave. 



Mesosternum basal width = 3 x mesocoxal line length; 

 coxal lines straight; base broadly sinuate. Metasternum 

 coxal lines meet at middle, often crenate or punctate, 

 recurved; coxal lines extend 0.5 distance to posterior 

 lateral angle; sternum shining, medial punctures fine, 

 coarse lateral punctures obscured by strong 

 microreticulation . 



First visible abdominal sternite with coxal lines 

 reaching 0.33 to 0.5 distance to posterior edge; broadly 

 rounded between metacoxae; coarse punctures laterally, fine 

 punctures medially. 



Male genitalia with median lobe weakly arched, apically 

 rounded; internal sac without noticeable sclerotized 

 structures; flagellum swollen at basal half, narrow on
