Similar species: Differing from other species of the genus in the morphology of the antennae. Scape bearing 23 distinct dorsal hairs; postpedicel appears to be entirely fused with stylus, with no trace of division, thus being very long, swollen at base, gradually narrowing to apex, entirely clothed in long dense hairs.
