The following features allow inclusion of
Odontocera josemartii
in
Stenopseustes
: lower eye lobes in male not contiguous frontally; antennomeres III–VI filiform and elongated; antennomere III distinctly longer than scape; prothorax proportionally large when compared with elytra; pronotum with central longitudinal carina; elytra tumid, not translucent at distal region; procoxal cavities open behind; abdomen cylindrical in male; apex of abdominal ventrite with sides elevated. In
Odontocera
the lower eye lobes in male are contiguous or almost so frontally, the antennomeres IV–VI are not typically filiform and are shorter, the antennomere III is not much longer than scape, the prothorax is proportionally smaller, the pronotum has no central longitudinal carina, the elytra is not tumid at distal region and, the procoxal cavities are distinctly closed behind.
According to
Zayas (1956)
and
Devesa
et al.
(2015)
the holotype of
O. josemartii
(that remains the only known specimen) is a female. However, based on the last abdominal ventrite it is a male.
