) is very unusual in the single available specimen being S-shaped with a corkscrew-like appearance. The proximal lobe is moderately pigmented, slightly swollen. The distal lobe is slender, tapered, with the apex slightly bent downward. The ampulla is fairly pigmented, sitting just at the basal apex of the vasculum, shortly conical. The duct and sperm gland insertions are perceptibly distinct. The duct is long, quite rigid near the vasculum, more slender and more delicate towards the bursa copulatrix, forming loose turns both near the vasculum and in proximity to the bursa copulatrix. The insertion on the bursa copulatrix is robust, conical, strongly pigmented.

, differ remarkably in some ways. In particular, the pronotum is mostly yellow with an M-shaped black patch on the disc. The elytron is mostly yellow as well, with two longitudinal black stripes extended from the base to apex, the inner one, larger, in the middle of the elytron, the second one along margin. The suture is narrowly black. Additionally, the median lobe of the aedeagus is slightly more regularly convex in lateral view. Nevertheless, I am inclined to consider the specimens as belonging to this species, at least provisionally, based above all on the overall similarity in the shape of the median lobe.
