This third species of the triplet lacking dorsal elytral setae can be diagnosed by the more quadrate pronotum (Fig. 90F); MPW/PL = 1.07-1.13. The pronotum is relatively less constricted basally in association with the quadrate shape; MPW/BPW = 1.42-1.43. The elytra are subquadrate, the lateral margins extended laterally outside the distinctly angulate humeri, and broader relative to the pronotum than in other
