Elongate, subparallel and depressed hypogean molytine of moderate size (3.7–5.0 mm, without head), eyeless and apterous (fig. 1a-c). Integument well sclerotized, dark reddish brown, almost glabrous, with tiny dispersed granules and covered by more or less developed foveae. Rostrum as long as pronotum, with several irregular micro-ridges along epifrons; scrobe sinuous, upper margin reaching base of rostrum, lower margin reaching ventral margin of rostrum at middle. Pronotum not constricted anteriorly, front margin broad and thick covering head (roof-like), laterally reflexed; with one wide submarginal depression on each side; front half with conspicuous median keel. Elytra with base concave and lateral angles sharply pointed, protruding; striae shallow, interstriae slightly rippled. Metapleurosternal sulcus absent; metaventral apophysis truncate, thickly bordered; first and second abdominal ventrite fused (suture obsolete), much longer than the rest together. Femora slender, unarmed; tibiae much compressed, uncinate; protibiae with premucro; tarsal plantae replaced by loose hairs; third tarsomere broad, bilobed; onychium long with free claws (fig. 3b).

weakly convex, in dorsal view with outline elongate, somewhat rectangular (L/W= 1.1); apex strongly thickened, not constricted, margin reflexed (roof-like, covering head), slightly emarginate; lateral margins variable, little arcuate and convergent in apical third (anterior angles blunt, border thick, with asperities), subparallel in middle third, then straight and convergent basad (in one specimen somewhat undulate); base finely bordered, weakly emarginate; maximum width usually at apical third. Median line sharply keeled and conspicuous on apical half, flanked by shallow longitudinal depressions on disk, and by larger and deeper antero-lateral depressions; margins reflexed. Integument with large confluent foveae, intervals very narrow, forming an irregular sharp reticulate pattern (better defined in posterior half) or longitudinal irregular ridges on each side of disk.

). The collection site is located in Los Berrazales, the upper section of the Agaete valley, in an older part of the island formed by Miocene volcanism, but the site itself is within younger terrain (represented by basanite scoria cones and lava flows) originated from a localized Holocene eruption. This part of the island was not directly affected by subsequent episodes of extensive volcanism that occurred in Gran Canaria during the Pliocene, of which one in particular, the formation of the Roque Nublo agglomerate complex, was very explosive and accompanied by extensive aerial emissions (

). The upper part of the Agaete valley probably acted as a refuge for the biota of the humid areas destroyed by this explosive Pliocene volcanism, this being a possible explanation for the presence of some local endemic plants and animals. Most of the subterranean species collected in the MSS of Los Berrazales have not been found in other nearby sites located in more recent terrains. Thus, the role of the Agaete valley as a refuge may have been particularly important for subterranean habitats. Only two troglobitic species discovered in the MSS of Los Berrazales have also been found in other younger terrains: the millipede
