Although known only from two specimens collected by R.C.L. Perkins in 1894 and 1896, new specimens of this species would be instantly recognizable by the presence of only the posterior supraorbital seta, glabrous pronotum with carinate lateral margins, minimally punctate pronotal median base (Fig. 95A), and very large body size; standardized body length 7.4 mm (paratype female). Setal formula 1 0 2 0, and the parascutellar seta is present.

(n = 1). These are very robust, large-bodied beetles. The eyes are moderately convex, covering much of the protruded ocular lobes; ocular ratio = 1.48, ocular lobe ratio = 0.79. The pronotum is vase shaped, MPW/PL = 1.15, the base narrowly constricted, MPW/BPW = 1.73. The median base bears ~10 very shallow, isolated punctures each side, the cuticle glossy over the entire surface, and the anterior transverse impression is deep and very smooth, bordered anterior by the convex, smooth and glossy anterior callosity. The elytra are an elongate ovoid shape, with narrowly rounded base. The evenly curved basal grooves meet their respective lateral margins at the proximate, rounded to subangulate humeri; MEW/HuW = 2.30. The 2nd stria is nearly as deep as the sutural stria near elytral midlength, but it is absent basally whereas the sutural stria can be traced basally by a series of fine punctures. The much reduced microsculpture includes: 1, vertex with obsolete transverse mesh, sculpticell breadth 2
