Ventral part with fine, inconspicuous punctation, invisible on metaventrite and metacoxae and weak on abdominal ventrites; prosternum smooth medially; metaventrite and metacoxae with weak microreticulation; on abdominal ventrites microreticulation almost invisible; metacoxal plates with numerous, strongly impressed longitudinal strioles, abdominal ventrites 1 and 2 with numerous, long, longitudinal strioles from margin to margin, on abdominal ventrites 3 and 4 strioles situated laterally and turn to middle, almost horizontal, abdominal ventrites 5 and 6 without strioles but with fine punctation that very sparse medially and forms a dense, rugose lateral area at each side.

: Protibia straight, not modified. Proclaws rather long, subequal in length. Median lobe of aedeagus with two lobes of dorsal sclerite rather narrow; left dorsal lobe distinctly shorter that right one, with long lateral crest; apex of left dorsal lobe curved downwards and not to left; its dorsal surface without denticulation, it invisible in left lateral view due to strong curvature downwards; right dorsal lobe with distinct, but shallow, elongate median impression; apex of right dorsal lobe elongate, less swollen, rounded; lobes of ventral sclerite almost completely sclerotised, only with narrow membranous areas medially; sclerotised area of left ventral lobe as long as left dorsal lobe, with long, thin slightly curved to left apex, well visible in lateral left and ventral views; right ventral lobe with large sclerotised area, flat, not protruding, not covering left ventral lobe. Paramere with setae distinctly divided into distal and proximal; proximal setae sparser and shorter than distal (Fig.

: Dimorphic: with elytron punctate as in males or elytron with denser punctation and additionally to it with very tiny strioles between striae. There are no strongly striolated, matt forms. The striolated females very seldom, ratio: 26:2 in PNG220; 91:5 in PNG116; 46:11 in PNG117.
