03C82166FFC7FFE2FE2DAEB7FC8F813D.taxon	diagnosis	DIAGNOSIS This new species is similar to C. madagascariensis in its general outline and body size, but can be easily separated from the latter by the convex costa, separated from exocorium in its basal two thirds (costa of C. madagascariensis is flattened and separated from exocorium only in its basal third). Moreover, the corium of C. sicardi bears coarse large punctures of the same size, whereas the corium of C. madagascariensis has punctures of different sizes, from very small and shallow to large and coarse.	en	Lis, J.
