Diagnosis and remarks. This species is assessed as Data Deficient in the IUCN Red List, due to its restricted range and rarity, having been collected only three times, in 1998, 1999 and 2018, the latter in a Malaise trap (Vilela & Guillermo-Ferreira 2021j). The following character combination distinguishes this species from the remainder of Group A species: posterior margin of upper plate sinuous, bearing small teeth, anterior margin nearly curved, upper plate concave at its middle (Fig. 57e); ridge centered (Fig. 57f); in lateral view, cercus tapering towards its apex (Fig. 57g); ML apex ‘W’ shaped, bilobate (Fig. 57e).
