<paragraph pageId="19" pageNumber="20">Body length 4.2-4.7 mm, breadth 2.2-2.4 mm. Dorsal, colour pattern lacking or very indistinct and vaguely delimited (Fig. 384).</paragraph>
<paragraph pageId="19" pageNumber="20">Head: Ferrugineous; frontally often narrowly and slightly paler; with a vague, pale ferrugineous border at foremargin. Impunctate, except at eyes; with scattered, irregular punctures. Slightly matt, reticulation, simple, meshes small and of equal size.</paragraph>
<paragraph pageId="19" pageNumber="20">Pronotum: Ferrugineous, no distinct colour pattern. Impunctate, except at margins; with fine, irregular punctures, which are lacking medially at base. Slightly matt, with fine, simple reticulation; meshes small and of equal size.</paragraph>
<paragraph pageId="19" pageNumber="20">Elytra: Ferrugineous to dark ferrugineous; sometimes with vague, dark ferrugineous to blackish areas (one at scutellar region, one extensive on medial part, and one apically). Dark areas, when present a very diffuse and their delimitation vague (Fig. 384). Submat, finely and equally microsculptured; meshes small and of equal size. Discally with a fine, irregular row of punctures. Dorsolateral row and lateral row of punctures sparse, irregular and especially lateral one is fragmentary. Apically with sparse and irregularly distributed punctures of variable size.</paragraph>
<paragraph pageId="19" pageNumber="20">Ventral aspect: Ferrugineous, abdomen in part darker; ferrugineous to dark ferrugineous. Almost impunctate. Scattered punctures on apical ventrite which lacks small knob on one side (Fig. 20). Rather shiny, with very fine, in part, indistinct microsculpture. Apex of prosternal process quite slender, posteriorly moderately extended, apex narrows quite abruptly (approx. as Fig. 1). Metacoxal plates in frontal half provided with, fine, almost transversely located, shallow furrows. Abdomen with fine, curved striae. Metacoxal process ends abruptly; no posterior extensions (Fig. 6).</paragraph>
<paragraph pageId="19" pageNumber="20">Legs: Pale ferrugineous to ferrugineous. Pro- and mesotarsus slightly enlarged, provided with suckers. Apex of metatibial spines bifid, although very finely so.</paragraph>
<paragraph pageId="19" pageNumber="20">Male genitalia: Penis, lateral aspect, from approximately middle to apex evenly curved; tip somewhat enlarged, ends abruptly (Figs 222-223).</paragraph>
<paragraph pageId="19" pageNumber="20">Female: Pro- and mesotarsus slender. Apical sternite (Fig. 21).</paragraph>
