DESCRIPTION

Body 8.00­ 10.78 mm in length, 4.22­5.49 mm in width, from dark castaneous to almost black, corium and apical part of umbones usually more brownish than scutellum.

Head dorsally polished, impunctate, sometimes only slightly wrinkled in lateral parts of paraclypei; clypeus subapically without a pair of setigerous punctures, each paraclypeus submarginally with a single preocular setigerous puncture (Fig. 132); ocular index 1.85­2.45; interocellar index 6.0­11.0; length of antennal segments (in mm): 0.41­0.43: 0.47­0.60: 0.63­0.85: 0.82­1.01: 0.94­1.12.

Pronotum divided into two lobes by distinct transverse impression behind calli bearing numerous punctures; lateral margins with 4­5 submarginal setigerous punctures (Fig. 131). Propleuron with numerous punctures in depression and in basal part of posterior lobe.

Scutellum almost evenly punctate, its basal part and apex impunctate.

Corium almost evenly punctate with punctures smaller than those on scutellum; clavus with one complete and two partial rows of punctures; exocorium weakly punctate; costa narrow, almost entirely separated from exocorium, bearing 2 setigerous punctures (Fig. 131).

Male hind tibiae with small subbasal tubercles, hind femora with distinct subapical teeth (Fig. 133); female hind femora with very small, sometimes indistinct subapical tooth.

Abdominal sterna smooth, bearing more or less developed wrinkles, each segment laterally with a triangular patch of dense tiny punctures posterior to spiracles, sterna III and IV with very few tiny punctures also anterior to spiracle; sometimes lateral third of sterna with a few large clearly visible punctures.
