 Head dorsal distance between eyes = 2.5 x eye width; 



ocular striae reaching 0.7 to 0.8 distance to anterior angle 



of eye; vertex puncture size = 1 x facet, separated by 1 



diameter; epistome puncture size = 0.5 to 0.75 x facet, 



nearly coalescing. Antenna reaching base of pronotum; 



antennomere III as long as next 3 antennomere combined; 



antennomeres IX to XI symmetrical; antennomere XI 



subcircular narrower than antennomere X (similar to Fig. 



61) . 



Maxillary palp terminal segment triangular, sides 

 rounded, lateral angle acute, medial angle nearly 90°, width 

 = 2 x length. Labial palp terminal segment triangular, 

 extended medially, sides rounded, angles nearly 90°, length 

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

 width (similar to Fig. 7o) . Mentum with plate broadly 

 triangular, length = 0.5 x width, sides concave (similar to 

 Fig. 8h) ; medial extension short, blunt, projecting. 



Pronotal disc puncture size = 1 x facet, separated by 

 0.5 to 1 diameter. Scutellum pentagonal, length = 0.5 x 

 width. Each elytron with 7 complete striae; stria VIII 

 present at base, obscured by interval punctation; strial 

 punctures at base = 2 x pronotal disc punctures, gradually 

 becoming finer posteriorly; interval punctures fine, 

 impressed, distinct. 



Prosternum strongly keeled and pinched anteriorly; with 

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

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