treatment, the more intensely microsculptured vertex can externally diagnose individuals of this species, with the isodiametric sculpticells upraised, their individual reflections producing a textured look to the surface. Also, the elytral lateral marginal depression is broader laterad the humerus in this species (Fig. 143D). The aedeagus of this species has a broadly rounded median lobe apex (Fig. 144
