Labial palp width = 0.8 x maxillary palp width (similar to 



Fig. 7a). Mentum with plate broadly triangular, length = 

 0.5 x width, sides inwardly curved, ridge medial extension 

 small and acutely pointed (similar to Fig. 8e) . 



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

 to 3 diameters; laterally separated by 1 to 2 diameters. 

 Scutellum pentagonal, length = 0.5 x width. Each elytron 

 with 7 complete striae; stria VIII present apical half; 

 strial puncture size at base = 2 x pronotal disc punctures, 

 gradually becoming finer posteriorly; intervals finely 

 punctate, punctures obscure medially, weakly impressed 

 laterally. 



Prosternum keeled and pinched anteriorly; with few 

 foveate punctures in front of procoxa; coxal lines straight, 

 length = 0.5 x sternal length, lines not surpassing coxae, 

 length = 0.75 x basal width; prosternal plate flat, apical 

 width = 0.75 x basal width; base concave. 



Mesosternum basal width = 3 x mesocoxal line length; 

 coxal lines straight; base weakly sinuate. Metasternum 

 coxal lines meet at middle, with 2 widely separated teeth 

 (Fig. 15d) , recurved; coxal lines extend 0.33 distance to 

 posterior lateral angle; line behind mesocoxa deep groove, 

 laterally pit-like; sternum shining, medial punctures fine, 

 lacking coarse lateral punctures. 



First visible abdominal sternite with coxal lines fine, 

 reaching 0.25 distance to posterior edge; broadly rounded
