Pronotum with ovate punctures of transverse orientation; interspaces subglabrous. Elytra with striae marked by rows of small punctures; sutural interval with additional row, other intervals subglabrous, with sparse minute punctures; basal margin with transverse row of somewhat larger punctures. Femora dentate with small tooth; anterior surface punctate, microreticulate, each puncture with short recumbent seta. Meso- and metafemur with anteroventral ridge crenate. Metafemur subapically with stridulatory patch. Abdominal ventrites 1–2 concave, microreticulate, with sparse punctures; ventrite 5 punctate, microreticulate, with sparse setae, at middle with distinct impression. Penis (Fig. 12b) with body subparallel to rounded apex, with few short setae; apodemes 2.6× as long as body of penis; transfer apparatus spiniform, pointing apicad, held by subrotund sclerite; ductus ejaculatorius without bulbus.

Notes
Trigonopterus matakensis sp. nov. was coded as “Trigonopterus sp. 1197”. This species belongs to the T. ovalipunctatus-group. It is closely related to T. ovalipunctatus Riedel, but differs by the subrotund shape of the supporting sclerites of the transfer apparatus and a 9.6–10.3% cox1 p-distance.
