Head (Fig. 8) hypognathous with frontal view slightly longer than wide. In lateral view anterior margin forms a moderately convex line with a notch where vertex meets antennal calli and a second notch at anterior end of frontal ridge. Supraorbital pore represented by a large setaceous pore adjacent to orbital sulcus near eye. Seta in supraorbital pore upcurved. Vertex shiny, indistinctly wrinkled, nearly impunctate. Antennal calli trapezoidal, longer than wide, moderately convex, raised above adjacent border of vertex, separated from each other by a deep midfrontal sulcus; anterior ends acutely triangular, enter into interantennal space, reaching well below midlevel of antennal socket. Orbital sulcus short, deep, represented by supraorbital pore and adjacent area. Supracallinal sulcus represented by punctures arranged in an irregular transverse row, each puncture in supracallinal row bearing a short down-curved seta. Midcranial suture absent. Supraorbital sulcus less distinct than midfrontal sulcus. Suprafrontal and supraantennal sulci well defined. Subgenal suture distinct. Transverse diameter of eye 5.2-8.8 times distance between eye and antennal socket, 2.9-4.4 times distance between antennal sockets, 1.7-1.9 times width of antennal socket, 0.6-0.7 times distance between eyes. Eyes lateral, medium sized, convex, inner margins indistinctly concave, and ventrally divergent. Frontal ridge narrowest between antennal sockets, joins anterofrontal ridge anteriorly. Anterofrontal ridge transverse, gently curved. Frontal ridge together with antero-frontal ridge forms
