and a combination of characters probably not found in any other hispine. The form of the antennae is its most unique character. They are especially short, each composed of seven articulating antennomeres that are nearly uniform in width, with the intermediate segments (IV–VI) being especially short. The outermost elytral strial punctures, normally geminate in most hispines, are reduced to a single row, resulting in a total of seven rows on each elytron. The uniformly orange coloration without a hint of darker markings and narrow build are also distinctive. The 7-segmented antennae, seven rows of punctures on each elytron, and narrow build are my justification for placing this species in
