 Head dorsal distance between eyes = 2 x eye width; 



ocular striae reaching 0.75 distance to anterior angle of 

 eye; vertex puncture size = 0.75 x facet, separated by 1 to 

 3 diameters; epistome puncture size = 0.75 x facet, 

 coalescing. Antenna reaching basal 0.25 of pronotum; 

 antennomere III as long as next 3 antennomere combined; 

 antennomeres IX to XI symmetrical; antennomere X crescent- 

 shaped; antennomere XI subcircular, transverse narrower than 

 antennomere X (Fig. 61) . 



Maxillary palp terminal segment triangular, sides 

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

 length = 0.5 x width. 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 (Fig. 7o) . Mentum with plate 

 triangular, length = width, sides concave, apical angle 

 rounded; ridge medial extension lacking (similar to Fig. 

 8h) . 



Pronotal disc puncture size = 0.75 to 1.0 x facet, 

 separated by 1 to 3 diameters. Scutellum pentagonal, sides 

 short, length = 0.6 x width. Each elytron with 7 complete 

 striae, stria VIII present at base and on apical half; 

 strial puncture size at base = pronotal disc puncture, 

 gradually becoming finer posteriorly; intervals finely 

 punctate, impressed, distinct.
