Diagnostic description
Holotype, male (Fig. 77a). Length 2.53 mm. Color black; antennae and tarsi ferruginous. Body in dorsal aspect subovate, with weak constriction between pronotum and elytron; in profile dorsally convex. Rostrum with median and pair of indistinct submedian ridges; intervening furrows containing row of coarse punctures, with rows of erect scales; epistome with subangulate ridge bearing five denticles. Head with front margin of eye bordered by distinct furrow. Pronotum with disk densely punctate with small punctures; interspaces subglabrous; each puncture containing small recumbent seta. Elytra with striae marked by small punctures; intervals flat, weakly microreticulate, with small interspersed punctures, especially on sutural interval; elytral apex subtruncate, in apical aspect ventral outline weakly bisinuate. Metafemur subapically with stridulatory patch. Dorsal edge of tibiae with subbasal angulation, dentate in pro- and mesotibia. Abdominal ventrites 1–2 subglabrous, with few long erect narrow scales, laterally with swollen rim; abdominal ventrite 2 in profile projecting dentiform; abdominal ventrite 5 flat, basally with indistinct transverse costa, with sparse coarse punctures and suberect scales. Penis (Fig. 77b) with sides of body subparallel; apex rounded, with sparse setae; transfer apparatus small, complex, wider than long; apodemes 1.9 × as long as body; ductus ejaculatorius without bulbus. Intraspecific variation. Length 2.16–2.55 mm. Female body between humeri slightly more slender. Female rostrum dorsally subglabrous, coarsely punctate, interspaces microreticulate; epistome simple.
