group - standardized body length 5.4-5.6 mm - characterized by a transverse pronotum (Figs 23A, B), this species is characterized by the presence of only one apical elytral seta; setal formula 2221. The seta is present apicad the juncture of striae 3 + 4, and as detailed in the Setation section above, represents the apical seta of the plesiomorphic apical plus subapical elytral setal pair, its position evolutionarily transformed to a more basal position. The head is covered with evident microsculpture, the sculpticells transversely stretched and in transverse rows on the frons, more isodiametric on the neck. The pronotal disc and discal elytral intervals bear well-developed transverse mesh microsculpture, with sculpticell breadth 2
