length, and transverse lines; and 3, standardized body length 3.4-4.3 mm. The pronotal median base bears deep round punctures, about 18 each side, with the punctures anastomosing in the rugose laterobasal pronotal depressions. The discal elytral striae are deep and broad, and the discal intervals broadly convex. The head bears evident, though shallow transverse-mesh microsculpture, the more elongate sculpticells near the transverse wrinkles emanating from the frontal grooves. The neck is covered with shallow isodiametric microsculpture. The pronotal disc bears elongate transverse microsculpture, the mesh irregular leading to a predominance of transverse lines. The sculpticell margins are shallow and they cannot be traced in areas of reflected light. The male aedeagal median lobe is gracile, with an elongate ventral expansion at the apex (
