The deep lateral gap between the pronotal collar and mesoscutum (Fig. 12) was cited by Bouček as a generic character, but we have found this character to be only occasionally useful and frequently misleading because it can be affected by the position of the body at death. Additionally, the extreme reduction or lack of a posterior smooth strip of the pronotal collar seemed to be a significant character, but the smooth strip is conspicuous and relatively long in males and small females. Nucha (Fig. 13) with a weak basal crosscarina merging smoothly with posterior remnants of plicae; variably emarginate posteriorly, not always deeply so.
