Ligyrus rosettae Endrödi 1968: 168 (original combination).

Redescription. Male. Length 19.4–21.5 mm; width 9.4–10.8 mm. Color dark reddish brown to black. Head: Frons and clypeus coarsely rugose. Frontoclypeal region with 2 distinctly transverse tubercles; tubercles relatively narrowly separated, usually about 2.5 tubercle diameters apart ( Fig. 4f View Figure 4 ). Clypeus strongly rugopunctate to transversely rugose, tapering to broad, slightly emarginate apex with 2 reflexed teeth. Mandibles with 2 teeth, apical tooth rounded, subapical notch shallow ( Fig. 6k–l View Figure 6 ); labium densely setose on sides, paraglossa developed, apex with small tooth at center ( Fig. 7f View Figure 7 ); maxilla with galea developed and with 6 teeth ( Fig. 5f View Figure 5 ). Pronotum: Surface with disc moderately punctate, sides and anterior angles densely punctate to rugopunctate; punctures moderate in size on disc, becoming larger laterally; fovea rugose within. Anterior margin with strong, median tubercle; fovea small, as wide as width between eyes ( Fig. 8f View Figure 8 ). Elytra: Surface densely punctate; punctures moderate in size with sparser, minute punctures between larger punctures; larger punctures usually ocellate, and with 3 pairs of double rows. Pygidium: Surface densely punctate, punctures becoming denser in basal and lateral angles; punctures small to moderate in size, weakly ocellate. In lateral view, male with convex surface, surface weakly convex in females. Legs: Protibia tridentate and with weak, basal convexity suggestive of 4 th tooth, teeth subequally spaced from each other. Protarsus in male simple, not enlarged. Mesotibia relatively broad, transverse carinae arcuate, spinules long, stout ( Fig. 10k–l View Figure 10 ). Metatibia with 1 basal, transverses carina interrupted at middle (carina with spine-like setae) and 1 medial, transverse carina; apex truncate with about 21 spinules ( Fig. 10l View Figure 10 ). Venter: Prosternal process long, thick, apex longitudinally oval. Mesosternal surface glabrous, slightly concave at middle. Metasternal surface with sparse, ocellate punctures. Male Genitalia: Parameres ( Fig. 11f View Figure 11 , 12f View Figure 12 , 13f View Figure 13 ) subtriangular, acute apices curving outwards. Internal sac with 3 copulatory lamellae ( Fig. 15f View Figure 15 ).

Female. Length 20.0– 21.6 mm; width 9.8–10.0 mm. Similar to male, but pronotal surface with punctures slightly less dense. Gonocoxite larger than gonocoxal sternite, with 2 semicircular furrows ( Fig. 14f View Figure 14 ).
