sp. nov. are slightly transverse, beginning with antennomere 8 (Figs 48, 49) while other known species have transverse antennomeres beginning with 6 or 7. Based on the punctation and microsculpture of the pronotum and shape of antennomere 10 (Fig. 49), the new species is similar to

(Bernhauer, 1915), known from New Britain (Bismarck Archipelago of Papua New Guinea) but differs by the somewhat larger and wider body, the absence of laterobasal pronotal depressions, and the more transverse pronotum (Fig. 45). Based on the shape and coloration of the body, similar punctation, pronotum without depressions on basal portions, and somewhat convex mesoventrite,

The new species is tentatively attributed to this genus, making it the second extinct representative of the genus after
