Individuals are also much smaller than those of other species, with standardized body length 3.8-4.2 mm. Other characters that confirm the diagnosis include: 1, pronotum with complete basal marginal bead; 2, elytra with 2 dorsal setae in third interval; 3, both apical and subapical elytral setae present (Fig. 11A); 4, mesepisternum with approximately 8 large punctures on dorsal portion of surface, versus 12-25 punctures in the other species; 5, metepisternum separated from metepimeron by distinct suture, visible externally as a complete, depressed line; 6, male aedeagus with elongate right paramere (Fig. 1D, 1E); and 7, internal sac of male aedeagus with sinuous, flagellum and flagellar sheath apically on left side (Fig. 1E).</paragraph>
