( Fig. 70, 71 View Figure 45-74. 45-73 , 116 View Figure 105-117 , 192, 193 View Figure 177-199. 177-195 , 255 View Figure 252-276. 252-257 , 298 View Figure 277-299 , 323 View Figure 323-328 , 475-477 View Figure 474-480 )

Etymology. Dedicated to Dr. Roberto Poggi (MCGD), for his assistance and the loan of material for this study, especially the syntype female of Parandra janus .

Type material. Holotype M from INDONESIA, Sumatra (Province of North Sumatra): Sikulikap Waterfall, III.25.1997, Y. Johki and K. Araya coll.. ( MZBI) . Paratype F, same data as holotype ( KMCT).

Description. Integument shining, dark-brown; mandibles, parts of head, parts of legs and pronotal edges blackish.

Male ( Fig. 475 View Figure 474-480 ). Head wide; dorsal surface, on gibbosities, moderately coarsely punctate; area between gibbosities and occiput with fine and somewhat sparse punctures, and a large and smooth area below each gibbosity; frontal gibbosities well marked, separated by deep and wide furrow; area between gibbosities and ocular carina smooth and depressed, but with some punctures near clypeus; ocular carina elevated, distinctly bifurcated in “Y” near posterior edge of eyes ( Fig. 475 View Figure 474-480 ); area behind bifurcation of ocular carina with punctures coarse, abundant and anastomosed; area behind eyes smooth close to ocular edge and sparsely and coarsely punctate towards occiput. Eyes ( Fig. 116 View Figure 105-117 ) narrow; posterior ocular edge ( Fig. 475 View Figure 474-480 ) distinct. Central area of clypeus oblique close to front. Central area of labrum distinctly tumid and with tuberculiform process frontally; central projection of labrum ( Fig. 70 View Figure 45-74. 45-73 ) wide, truncate and not notably projected at apex, that is strongly lowered, or situated at a lower elevation than the rest of the labrum. Submentum barely depressed, with moderately large, abundant punctures; margin close to mentum moderately wide and elevated; pilosity sparse. Teeth of inner margin of mandibles ( Fig. 192 View Figure 177-199. 177-195 ) placed at middle, together projected; area latero-dorsal between middle of dorsal carina and apex almost flat. Ventral sensorial area of antennomeres III-XI not divided by carina and not visible from the side ( Fig. 255 View Figure 252-276. 252-257 ).

Pronotum coarsely and somewhat abundantly punctate at sides (mainly at anterior half); center of disc finely, sparsely punctate; anterior edge ( Fig. 475 View Figure 474-480 ) not sinuous; anterior angles feebly projected forward; lateral angles barely marked; posterior angles marked. Elytra coarsely and abundantly punctate, more sparsely around scutellum; each elytron with two carinae not well marked. Metasternum coarsely punctate laterally. Metafemur ( Fig. 476 View Figure 474-480 ) elongate. Dorsal face of metatibiae rounded at base and gradually leveled towards apex. Metatarsomere V ( Fig. 298 View Figure 277-299 ) as long as I-III together.

Female ( Fig. 477 View Figure 474-480 ). Central projection of labrum ( Fig. 71 View Figure 45-74. 45-73 ) narrow and truncate. Ocular carina not bifurcated. Ventral sensorial area of antennomeres III-XI and submentum as in male. Mandibles ( Fig. 193 View Figure 177-199. 177-195 ) with dorsal carina distinct only at basal third.

Dimensions in mm (M). Total length (including mandibles), 19.1; prothorax: length, 3.9; anterior width, 5.0; posterior width, 4.1; humeral width, 5.2; elytral length, 11.1. The paratype female was not measured because it is severely damaged and deformed.

Comments. Male of K. poggii differs from male K. javana ( Fig. 419 View Figure 416-421 ) by the: central area of labrum distinctly tumid and with tuberculiform process frontally; central projection of labrum not notably projected at apex, and strongly lowered ( Fig. 70 View Figure 45-74. 45-73 ). In male of K. javana , the central area of labrum is not tumid and without tuberculiform process, and the central projection of labrum ( Fig. 38 View Figure 1-44 ) is distinctly projected at apex, and is not lowered.

The form of the labrum differentiates K. poggii from all other species of the genus.
