Setosity sparse except for a transverse band between ocular canthi, where rather dense, appressed, and silver-coloured. Mid-cranial suture barely noticeable to totally obliterated. Upper lobes of eyes well separated from each other. Ocular lines barely visible, strictly adhering to ocular rim. Antennae normal in shape, first five antennomeres yellowish, bright, 35 subcylindrical, the subsequent ones gradually darker, dull, moderately flattened and more diffusedly setose.</paragraph>

Sometimes black spots reduced or missing. Pronotal shape elliptical, scarcely transverse, with regularly curved, narrow lateral margins. Maximum width at around middle. Surface moderately convex, flattened above all behind midline. Surface relatively shiny, covered with fine punctation, denser along sides, almost obliterated at center of disc. Posterolateral impressions short and shallow, but usually perceptible.</paragraph>

At times, suture, epipleuron and humeral calli weakly darkened as well. Elytral outline with short dorsal profile, not curved at the sides. Sides weakly converging towards apex. Lateral margins rather narrow, barely visible simultaneously from above. Scutellar area perceptibly raised. Humeral callus prominent, impunctate. Surface with dense punctation rather confusedly arranged on anterior half, finer and distributed in almost regular rows toward apex. Epipleuron shiny, not punctured, with flat surface.</paragraph>

Posterior margin of fifth abdominal ventrite straight. In lateral view median lobe of aedeagus (Figs 10hm) scarcely compressed dorso-ventrally, then noticeably narrowed towards apex, terminated with rather wide, blunt, apical denticle, with sloping sides towards the anterior margin of the shaft. Apex straight, i.e., not bent ventrally in lateral view. Setose depressions narrow, shifted on sides, setose only along external margins, barely separated from glabrous depressions due to lack of evident partition septum (Figs 10hk). Aedeagal ventral surface with long sharp median carina, often slightly concave at middle in lateral view.</paragraph>

The fifth abdominal ventrite in females has a large, almost circular, deep pit. The bottom of the pit is bald, covered by tiny punctures and wrinkles. The vasculum of spermatheca (Fig. 11a) is scarcely pigmented, slender, with the proximal lobe slightly bent at base, scarcely swollen. The distal lobe is slender as well, long, almost straight, often with a sharp apex bent downward. The ampulla is short, not pigmented. The duct insertion and the sperm gland insertion are well separated. The duct is rather short, slender, coiled, with the coils never forming a real tangle outside or close to the vasculum. The insertion on bursa copulatrix is usually slightly enlarged, not pigmented but in a single specimen from Ponta Grossa (

This is confirmed in females by the structure of the spermathecal ductus (Fig. 11a and Fig. 11d). However, it should be noted that in most of the Brazilian specimens available for study the two sexual characteristics mentioned above can show quite a strong variability, and in some cases, there may be some difficulty in confidently attributing the specimens to
