. However their very different aedeagal configurations (Figs 40C, D) give cold comfort to any hypothesis proposing a close phylogenetic relationship. The vertex is glossy, with the neck bearing indistinct isodiametric sculpticells. The pronotal disc is also glossy, with an indistinct transverse mesh visible outside the area of reflected light. The discal elytral intervals are covered with well-developed transverse lines, with only occasional cross-connections resulting in a subiridescent surface. Standardized body length 4.1 mm.
