Ventrite apical margin bearing short, sparse setae; all ventrites bearing moderate, shallow punctation evenly distributed across surface, distance to nearest puncture approximately 2× diameter of puncture, punctures bearing mostly reclining setae; ventrite V with setae length nearly uniformly approximately 2× diameter of puncture; IIV each with 2 or more median pairs of longer, semi-erect sensory hairs (difficult to see in poor lighting, often abraded). Male genitalia (n = 2) similar to all others in the genus, with dorsoventrally flattened tegmen, elongate cylindrical median lobe, and long coiled flagellum (

. At that time, author PES agreed to help Mike Thomas with the descriptions. With this new enthusiasm additional materials began arriving from cycad researchers, most representing obviously undescribed taxa or presenting taxonomic problems that needed more detailed study before being described. Mike eventually turned the entire project over to PES, who was quickly overwhelmed with the diversity and complexity, but was able to help others describe individual species (
