Diagnostic description.

Holotype, male (Fig. 18a). Length 2.32 mm. Color of tarsi and antennae ferruginous; remainder black. Body elongate subovate; in dorsal aspect and in profile with distinct constriction between pronotum and elytron. Rostrum with median ridge and pair of submedian ridges, anteriorly behind epistome scabrous; with sparse rows of suberect setae; epistome with transverse, angulate ridge. Pronotum with subapical constriction; disk coarsely punctate, scabrous; each puncture containing suberect, weakly clavate scale inserting at posterior rim. Elytra with striae marked by deep punctures; in front of each puncture with piliform, erect scale; intervals costate, subglabrous, weakly microreticulate; sutural interval and interval 7 swollen subapically, projecting from outline. Femora edentate. Metafemur subapically without stridulatory patch. Dorsal edge of meso- and metatibia denticulate. Abdominal ventrite 5 flat, microreticulate, almost nude, with few short setae. Penis (Fig. 18b) with apex asymmetrical, tip slightly upcurved and extended to the left; apical extension long; basal orifice ventrally simple; apodemes short, 0.5 × as long as body; ductus ejaculatorius with bulbus. Intraspecific variation. Length 2.04-2.51 mm. Female rostrum dorsally in apical half subglabrous, densely punctate; epistome simple.
