Measurements and ratios: BL 7.51 - 8.90, FL 3.72 - 4.00, HL 0.89 - 1.02, HW 1.02 - 1.15, PL 1.33 - 1.52, PW 1.13 - 1.24, EL 0.93 - 0.96, HL / HW 0.86 - 0.92, HW / PW 0.90 - 0.94, HL / PL 0.65 - 0.67, PL / PW 1.18 - 1.24, EL / PL 0.63 - 0.70. Habitus as in Fig. 1 A. Body brown with paler apex, legs light brown, antennae light brown to yellowish brown. Head subquadrate (HL / HW 0.86 - 0.92); punctation coarse and sparse; interstices with very shallow microreticulation; eyes small, approximately 1 / 3 - 2 / 5 the length of postocular region in dorsal view. Pronotum nearly parallel-sided; punctation sparser than that of head; impunctate midline narrow; interstices shining without microsculpture. Elytra with punctation denser than that of pronotum and well defined; hind wings reduced. Abdomen with dense punctation; interstices with very shallow, transversely striate microsculpture. Male. Sternite VI (Fig. 2 D) with dense darkish setae in postero-median impression; sternite VII (Fig. 2 E) with sparse darkish setae in median impression, and poste rior margin with several peg-like setae; sternite VIII (Fig. 2 I) with asymmetric emargination and short darkish setae in shallow impression; sternite IX (Fig. 2 F) nearly symmetric; aedeagus (Figs 2 G, 2 H) with short ventral process and thin dorsal sclerite. Female. Posterior margin of tergite VIII (Fig. 2 A) pointed in middle; sternite VIII (Fig. 2 B) slightly longer than that of male, middle of posterior margin with broad and obtuse projection; tergite X (Fig. 2 C) obtuse apically and not reaching anterior margin of tergite IX (Fig. 2 C).	en	Peng, Zhong, Li, Li-Zhen, Zhao, Mei-Jun (2012): Two new apterous species of Lathrobium Gravenhorst (Coleoptera, Staphylinidae, Paederinae) from Fujian, East China.

Measurements and ratios: BL 7.78 - 9.73, FL 3.77 - 4.05, HL 1.11 - 1.13, HW 1.24 - 1.26, PL 1.48 - 1.54, PW 1.30 - 1.33, EL 0.93 - 0.96, HL / HW 0.90, HW / PW 0.95, HL / PL 0.73 - 0.75, PL / PW 1.14 - 1.16, EL / PL 0.62 - 0.63. Habitus as in Fig. 1 B. General appearance similar to that of Lathrobium daicongchaoi, except for the darker coloration, somewhat larger body size, denser punctation on head and pronotum, and the weakly convex lateral margins of pronotum in dorsal view. Male. Sternite V (Fig. 3 A) with darkish setae in postero-median impression, and posterior margin with several point-like setae; sternite VI (Fig. 3 C) similar to sternite V, but with much fewer point-like setae; posterior margin of sternite VII (Fig. 3 E) weakly concave; sternite VIII (Fig. 3 G) with subtriangular, weakly asymmetric emargination and short darkish setae in the narrow median impression; sternite IX (Fig. 3 H) nearly symmetric; aedeagus (Fig. 3 I, 3 J) with long ventral process and short dorsal sclerite. Female. Posterior margin of tergite VIII (Fig. 3 B) broadly convex; sternite VIII (Fig. 3 D) longer than that of male, middle of apical margin with obtuse projection; tergite X (Fig. 3 F) broadly convex apically and not reaching anterior margin of tergite IX (Fig. 3 F).	en	Peng, Zhong, Li, Li-Zhen, Zhao, Mei-Jun (2012): Two new apterous species of Lathrobium Gravenhorst (Coleoptera, Staphylinidae, Paederinae) from Fujian, East China.
