<paragraph pageId="2" pageNumber="99">Labroclypeus wide and subtrapezoidal, widest at base, lateral margins weakly convex and convergent anteriorly, anterior angles strongly rounded; anterior margin weakly sinuate medially, margins weakly reflexed; lateral margin and ocular canthus produce an indistinct blunt angle; surface nearly flat, finely and densely punctate, glabrous; frontoclypeal suture distinctly incised, evenly curved; smooth area anterior to eye weakly convex, twice as wide as long; ocular canthus short and wide (1/3 of ocular diameter), finely and densely punctate, without a terminal seta. Frons with sparse, fine punctures, and one or two single long setae beside each eye. Eyes small, ratio diameter/interocular width: 0.63. Antenna with ten antennomeres; club with three antennomeres and straight, 1.1 times as long as remaining antennomeres combined. Mentum elevated and slightly flattened anteriorly.</paragraph>

Metatibia short and wide, widest at middle, ratio of width/length: 1/2.18, sharply carinate dorsally, with two groups of spines, basal group at anterior third, apical group at three quarters of metatibial length, with a few short robust setae and a short serrated line parallel to the dorsal margin basally; lateral face longitudinally convex, shiny but basal third dull, impunctate and glabrous; ventral margin finely serrate, with four equidistant robust setae; medial face smooth and glabrous; apex finely serrate, moderately truncate interiorly near tarsal articulation. Tarsomeres dorsally smooth and glabrous; meso-and metatarsomeres lacking in holotype.
