. Head elongate (CI = 92.44–94.31), widest just posterior to eye; posterior margin flat. Longitudinal rugae on cephalic dorsum fine and dense, slightly wavy; approximately 16–20 fine, longitudinal rugae between frontal lobes; in full-face view, medial rugae not diverging toward posterior corners of head. In profile, area posterior to eyes rugose, rugae converging between posterior margin of eye and vertex. Cephalic interrugae moderately granulate, weakly shining; vertex rugose. Anterior margin of clypeus moderately concave, dorsal surface with numerous fine, subparallel, longitudinal rugae; lateral lobe of clypeus lacking small lobe that projects from anterior margin of antennal fossa. Mandible with five teeth; mandibular dorsum coarsely rugose. Up to several moderately long, curved, bristle-like, yellow-brown to brownish hairs project from anterior margin of clypeus. MOD = 0.23x HL. In profile, eyes situated anterior to middle of head, OMD = 0.96–1.00x MOD. Antennal scapes moderately long (SI = 64.66–70.91), failing to reach vertex by approximately 2.0x length of basal funicular segment; entire scape strongly striate, dull. Basal flange of scape flattened, moderately well-developed with carinate margin. Psammophore poorly-developed, consisting of numerous very short hairs scattered across ventral side of head.
