Thorax: Pronotum ( Fig. 121 ) transverse (PW/PL 90/80), disc finely punctate, lateral tubercles well developed; elytral asetiferous punctures not striate, profusely distributed throughout disc (EL/EW 290/55). Abdomen: Pygidium scutiform. D i s t r i b u t i o n: This species is known from Costa Rica .
