Labroclypeus subtrapezoidal and moderately wide, widest at base; lateral margins weakly convex and moderately convergent with moderately rounded anterior angles, lateral border and ocular canthus producing a distinct blunt angle; margins weakly reflexed; anterior margin distinctly sinuate medially; surface weakly convex medially and shiny, finely and very densely punctate, distance between punctures less than their diameter, anteriorly with a few long, erect setae. Frontoclypeal suture feebly incised and medially weakly angled; smooth area in front of eye short, approximately 2.5 times as wide as long; ocular canthus moderately long and slender, finely and densely punctate with a short single terminal seta. Frons with fine and sparsely but regularly scattered punctures, with a few short setae beside eyes. Eyes large, ratio of diameter/interocular

<paragraph pageId="3" pageNumber="68">Pronotum wide and transverse, widest shortly before base, lateral margins weakly convex and weakly narrowed anteriorly; anterior angles moderately produced and blunt, posterior angles right angled but strongly rounded at tip; anterior margin strongly and convexly produced medially with a distinct and broad marginal line; basal margin without marginal line; hypomeron distinctly margined at base; surface with moderately dense and fine punctures, with microscopic setae in punctures, otherwise glabrous; anterior and lateral borders sparsely setaceous. Scutellum narrow and long, well pointed at apex, with fine and moderately dense punctures.</paragraph>
<paragraph pageId="3" pageNumber="68">Elytra oblong, widest in posterior third, striae distinctly impressed, finely and densely punctate; intervals weakly convex, with fine and dense punctures concentrated along striae, glabrous except for a few fine setae on penultimate lateral interval; epipleural border robust, ending at strongly curved external apical angle; epipleura densely setaceous; apical border chitinous with a very fine rim of short microtrichomes (visible at 100x magnification).</paragraph>
<paragraph pageId="3" pageNumber="68">Ventral surface dull or shiny, with moderately dense, large punctures, sparsely setose, only metasternal disc with a few longer setae. Metacoxa glabrous, laterally with a few fine setae. Abdominal sternites with fine, dense punctation, each with indistinct transversal row of coarse punctures bearing a short seta; penultimate sternite with a shallow and short median furrow, apical margin of sternite tooth-like elevated beside furrow. Mesosternum between mesocoxae half as wide as mesofemur, with irregularly scattered, strong setae. Ratio of length of metepisternum/ metacoxa: 1/1.2. Pygidium dull, moderately convex, finely and moderately densely punctate, without smooth midline, with sparse short setae and a few longer setae adjacent to apical margin.</paragraph>

Metafemur shiny, anterior margin acute, without a submarginal serrated line; posterior margin straight with a few strong setae medially, ventrally weakly widened in apical half and serrate; dorsally serrated with short setae. Metatibia slender and long, widest shortly before apex, ratio width/length: 1/4.5; dorsal margin sharply carinate, with one group of spines (basal group of spines reduced) at four-fifths of metatibial length, basally with a few single spines in punctures; external face beside dorsal margin longitudinally roof-like carinate, impunctate but with some longitudinal, very superficial wrinkles; ventral margin finely serrate, with three fine setae, of which the two apical are more distant; medial face impunctate but superficially wrinkled; apex bluntly truncate interiorly near tarsal articulation. Tarsomeres glabrous and impunctate dorsally, with sparse, short setae ventrally; metatarsomeres dorsally with weak longitudinal impressions, ventrally with a strongly serrated ridge and a fine longitudinal carina laterally; first metatarsomere little longer than second, one third of its length longer than the upper tibial spur.
