M a t e r i a l e x a m i n e d: China: 10 exs. [partly teneral], Sichuan, Emei Shan, 29°33.6'N, 103°20.6'E, 1800-2400 m, sifted, 27.VI.-5.VII.2009, leg. Grebennikov (cSme, cAss).
The above specimens represent the first record of this remarkable species since its original description, which is based on a single male from the Emei Shan (ASSING 2005a). Some of the beetles listed above are more or less distinctly teneral. The previously unknown female secondary sexual characters are as follows: protarsomere I-IV moderately dilated, much less so than in the male; tergite X posteriorly with approximately 15 yellowish modified marginal setae.
