, in size, external morphology, and particularly in male genitalia. Based on the original description (Ito 1 998), the latter species differs in shorter antennae, not reaching pronotal basal edge, pronotum with sides almost straightly converging basad, not sinuate, and with basal angles angularly rounded at tip, pronotal microsculpture not evident, and aedeagal median lobe more markedly curved at middle; its apical capitulum in lateral view more strongly rounded along distal margin and with markedly projecting dorsal flange.
