Male holotype (Figs 10-13), measurements in mm: TL 2.85; PL 1.25; PW 1.50; EL 1.55; EW 1.55; GD 1.35. Ratios: PL/PW 0.83; EL/EW 1.00; EL/PL 1.24; GD/EW 0.87; TL/EW 1.84. Body oblong, strongly convex, mostly light yellowish brown; mouthparts and apices of femora reddish brown; ventral vestiture consisting of very fine decumbent setae. Head strongly developed, the anterior and lateral margins easily visible from above; dorsum concave, slightly tumid on disc; punctation relatively fine, shallow, sparse; in between punctures finely granulate; frontoclypeal ridge explanate, each side produced upward forming a conspicuous horn that is slightly arcuate, bearing two small tubercles between them; each side of vertex explanate and produced laterally forming a conspicuous triangular plate with an acute apex (Fig. 13, arrows). Eyes coarsely facetted; greatest width 0.18mm. Each antenna (left antenna measured; FL 0.22mm; CL 0.23mm; CL/FL 1.05) with length of antennomeres (in mm) as follows: 0.12; 0.07; 0.08; 0.04; 0.04; 0.03; 0.03; 0.06; 0.06; 0.11. Pronotum with shallow, coarse, single punctation; punctures separated by a distance about a puncture-width; in between punctures smooth at disc and finely granulate at the anterior projection; vestiture indistinctly dual, consisting of conspicuous yellowish stout erect bristles (~0.05mm) and very fine decumbent setae (&lt;0.02mm); anterior angles broadly rounded, just slightly produced forward; anterior margin (beyond anterior angles) explanate, produced forward forming a plate that slightly curves downward and narrows toward a slightly arcuate apex with a row of very long slender setae (&gt;0.35mm; Figs 10, 12, arrows). Scutellum subtriangular; punctation finer than those of pronotum and elytra; vestiture consisting of stout decumbent bristles (better seen in lateral view); basal width 0.21mm. Hindwings fully developed. Elytra subparallel at basal two-thirds, with posterolateral angles broadly rounded (as seen from above) and then converging to a blunt apex; punctation single and confused, a bit sparser than that of

; in between punctures smooth; vestiture indistinctly dual, consisting of conspicuous stout erect bristles (~0.07mm) and very minute decumbent setae (&lt;0.02mm); lateral and apical margins not visible from above; epipleura tapering from base to apex. Surface of the ventral thoracic and abdominal sclerites granulate, somewhat rugose. Prosternum flat; prosternal process laminate, almost half the length of procoxae. First abdominal ventrite more than twice as long as the second at midline; setose sex patch circular and margined, located at the middle of the ventrite and with a diameter of one-third the length of the ventrite at midline.

Basal piece (Fig. 16) almost half the length of tegmen. Tegmen (Fig. 16) with anterior portion broadly rounded; lateral margins almost straight; posterior portion bearing a deep V-shaped emargination reaching the middle of the structure and forming two lateral lobes. Penis (Fig. 16) subcylindrical, lateral margins straight for most of their lengths and a bit expanded to a rounded apex; the penis is turned and lays laterally in the slide preparation.</paragraph>
