Description. Dorsal face of head, between eyes, with distinct gibbosities, separated by furrow deep or moderately deep, without central depression in “V”. Ocular carina not wide (mainly in females), elevated, clearly from posterior edge of eyes to clypeus. Eyes of male ( Fig. 76 View Figure 75-89 ) small and narrow (larger width equals to 0.4 or 0.5 times total length); posterior ocular edge ( Fig. 355 View Figure 354-359 ) strongly distinct; anterior ocular edge clearly emarginate. Eyes of female ( Fig. 357 View Figure 354-359 ) large and wide (larger width larger than 0.5 times total length). Frontoclypeal suture visible throughout, except at central area, where it is slightly indicated. Central region of clypeus of male vertical or strongly oblique; in female, barely oblique. Clypeolabral suture visible throughout. Central projection of labrum of male ( Fig. 16 View Figure 1-44 ) projected and truncate or rounded at apex; rounded in female ( Fig. 17 View Figure 1-44 ). Mandibles of male ( Fig. 124 View Figure 118-147 ) not falciform, at most, as long as head, wide at nearly all extension of latero-outer face ( Fig. 124 View Figure 118-147 ); dorsal carina strongly elevated, strongly oblique in relation to longitudinal axis, fused at apex just before middle to basal tooth of inner margin; inner margin with two teeth; apex with two large teeth visible dorsally; latero-outer apex without small tooth. Mandibles of female ( Fig. 125 View Figure 118-147 ) Birandra -like, but with apex more similar to species of Parandra ; lateroouter face wide at base, gradually narrowed to apex; dorsal carina slightly elevated, wide, oblique and not reaching middle of mandible and inner margin; inner margin with two teeth together protracted. Mentum with long, sparse hair. Galea long; in male, reaching or almost reaching apex of second segment of maxillary palp; in female, ( Fig. 202 View Figure 200-209. 200-204 ) surpassing apex of second segment of maxillary palp. Ventral sensorial area of antennae ( Fig. 217 View Figure 210-217. 210-214 ) visible from side, divided by carina elevated and visible from the side; ventral sensorial area of antennomere XI invading dorsal area; dorsal sensorial area of antennomere XI wide; apex of antennomere XI clearly narrowed.

Anterior edge of pronotum sinuous (concave at central area); anterior angles of male not projected forward, and clearly projected in female; lateral angles absent or barely indicated; posterior angles distinct. Elytral punctation fine or slightly coarse, usually, more abundant in female. Veins MP 3 and MP 4 of female fused at their apex. Males brachypterous (wing venation badly-formed). Metathorax strongly reduced in male ( Fig. 356 View Figure 354-359 ) and normal in female. Apex of prosternal process slightly enlarged. Femora with short hair. Dorsal face of tibiae sulcate. Procoxal cavities clearly open behind. Paronychium with one seta.
