COMMENTS: The species was to present known only by its
type
material. It may be readily distinguished from its congeners by the colour of the elytra, in combination with the metaventrite and the abdominal sternite 1 lacking microsculpture. The aedeagus is characterized by the ejaculatory duct entering a widened orifice of the long, very narrow flagellum that becomes somewhat wider and less sclerotized posterior complex of mesal sclerites, and reaches ostium.
