Japan (Kyushu: Fukuoka). Etymology. The species name refers to the sculpture on frons and mesoscutum. Remarks. Among eastern Palearctic Trimorus species, the female of this species is similar to T. amesis Kozlov & Kononova, 2001 and T. mirandus Kozlov & Kononova, 2001 in shortened wings at most reaching posterior margin of mesosoma. But it differs from T. amesis in small body size ( T. granulatus about 0.9 mm; T. amesis about 1.4 mm) and sculpture of T3 (shallowly punctate in T. granulatus , Trimorus coriaceus in T. amesis ), and from T. mirandus in sculpture of frons, mesoscutellum and T3 (frons and mesoscutellum are granulate (Fig. 5A, C ) and T3 is shallowly punctate (Fig. 5E ) in T. granulatus ; all of them are smooth in T. mirandus ). In addition, this species differs from T. coriaceus sp. n. in the shape of head (globular in T. granulatus (Fig. 2A, B ), flat in T. coriaceus (Fig. 1A, B )) and sculpture of frons (granulate in T. granulatus (Fig. 5A ); coriaceous in T. coriaceus (Fig. 4A )) and T3 (shallowly punctate in T. granulatus (Fig. 5E ); densely punctate-imbricate in T. coriaceus (Fig. 4E )). Male of T. granulatus is similar to T. bisulcatus Kieffer, 1908 in ratio of length and width of antenomeres. The new species differs from T. bisulcatus in body size ( T. granulatus is about 1 mm; T. bisulcatus is about 1.7-2 mm) and body sculpture.
