<paragraph pageId="149" pageNumber="150">Description.</paragraph>
<paragraph pageId="149" pageNumber="150">Body length 3.9 mm, width 2.1 mm. Dorsal, aspect of body with stable colour pattern (Fig. 454).</paragraph>
<paragraph pageId="149" pageNumber="150">Head: Pale ferrugineous to ferrugineous. Rather shiny, although finely microsculptured. Reticulation double; large meshes in part reduced and only slightly more strongly developed in comparison with fine meshes. Impunctate, except at eyes with a group of irregularly distributed, fine punctures. Area of punctures extended a short distance towards middle of head-disc.</paragraph>
<paragraph pageId="149" pageNumber="150">Pronotum: Pale ferrugineous, almost unicoloured. Narrowly darker at foremargin. Basally at moderate distance from midline with two small and vague, dark ferrugineous spots. Submat, finely microsculptured. Reticulation double; large meshes only slightly more strongly developed than small meshes. Large meshes contain, when discernible, 2-6 small meshes (sometimes number difficult to estimate). Impunctate, except laterally and at foremargin; here fine, irregular punctures discernible.</paragraph>
<paragraph pageId="149" pageNumber="150">Elytra: Pale ferrugineous, with irregularly distributed, dark ferrugineous irrorations. Frontally at pronotum dark irrorations absent, forming an irregular, pale, transverse area. Posterior to pale area dark irrorations thickened, forming a dark transverse area. Posterior to dark area, irrorations somewhat loosened and appear somewhat irregular (Fig. 454). Rather shiny, although finely microsculptured; reticulation double. In frontal part of elytra division into two mesh-size-categories is clearly discernible. Posteriorly division becomes vague and indistinct. Impunctate, except for three, vague, longitudinal rows of punctures. Pre-apical, lateral row of fine punctures located in shallow furrow, which is finely pubescent.</paragraph>
<paragraph pageId="149" pageNumber="150">Ventral aspect: Dark ferrugineous to ferrugineous, no distinct colour pattern. Prothorax somewhat paler, ferrugineous to pale ferrugineous. Almost impunctate; apical ventrite with some punctures. Rather shiny, although finely microsculptured. Prosternal process rather slender; posteriorly somewhat elongated, apically pointed. Metacoxal plates in posterior half smooth; anteriorly with fine, shallow, in part reduced, transversely located furrows. Rather shiny, although very finely microsculptured. Abdomen with fine, curved striae. Apical ventrite as in (Fig. 115); asymmetric knob hardly discernible; rudimentary.</paragraph>
<paragraph pageId="149" pageNumber="150">Legs: Pale ferrugineous to ferrugineous. Pro- and mesotarsus slightly enlarged, provided with distinct suckers.</paragraph>
<paragraph pageId="149" pageNumber="150">Male genitalia: Penis in lateral aspect curved; extreme apex formed as a broad, rounded enlargement; not hooked (Fig. 305).</paragraph>
<paragraph pageId="149" pageNumber="150">Female: Unknown.</paragraph>
