Specimens Examined.
3 ♀

:
Wenbishan

Remarks.
This species is similar to
S. (P.) heyuanus
,
but obvious differences are the more strongly arched longer side of the terminal segment of maxillary palpi, relatively slender and small pronotal marking, elytron with apical 1/6 brown (incised anteriorly). To have confidence that this is a different species than
S. (P.) heyuanus
,
male specimens are needed with the same elytral color pattern as the
three females
examined.
