Diagnosis.
This species belongs to the group of species with more convex, suboval-shaped body and shiny elytral intervals with very sparsely distributed thin setae (
Fig. 66
). It differs from other
Dima
species in the region by the combination of following characters: paler and wider, more robust body, wide, shiny pronotum with very shallow fine punctures and short decumbent pubescence, and wide angulate scutellum (
Figs 66
,
145
). By the general habitus and shapes of pronotum and scutellum, this species is like
D. elateroides
, but they differ by the body surface and pubescence.
Distribution.
