from Namibia which had earlier been compared with syntypes of this species in ZMLU. I have also examined specimens from Angola, Botswana, Namibia, and South Africa (NICP, TMP, RAB). Only a single species is represented, which varies in length from 1.5-2.2 mm, and in size-related characters, such as the number of teeth (6 or 8) on the anterior margin of the pronotum, and the detailed arrangement of the setae on the elytra.

). I can confirm that the latter figure is correct. A seventh segment appears to have become fused to the base of the antennal club. The number of funicular segments is normally constant within a species in the
