The above specimens represent the first record of this remarkable species since its original description, which is based on a single male from the Emei Shan (ASSING 2005a). Some of the beetles listed above are more or less distinctly teneral. The previously unknown female secondary sexual characters are as follows: protarsomere I-IV moderately dilated, much less so than in the male; tergite X posteriorly with approximately 15 yellowish modified marginal setae.
