in possessing two transverse black bands on yellow elytra, but this species is easily recognized by its slender, indistinctly margined transverse black bands (broad and distinctly margined bands in others). Males of these species are also similar in possessing a broader penis (less than 6.0 times longer than wide; more than 6.5 times in other species), bifurcate apex of tectum (acute apex in other species), and lacking a pair of elongate and apically curved spiculae (such spiculae present in other species). Males of
