Re-description. Size: Total length (without labrum) 5.6–6.6 mm (mean = 6.3 mm, n = 4). Head: Glossy bluish-violet above, metallic green to blue-green on clypeus, frons, orbital plates, and genae; surface smooth, glabrous, each one with a setigerous puncture next to the eyes at the center; strong longitudinal striae on vertex and eyes, the striae becoming slightly concentric on vertex, and finer, irregular, transversely waved, behind on neck; genae roughly longitudinally striated. Eyes pale yellow. Ratio between width of head and elytra = 1.0 in medium. Labrum (male Fig. 46, 47, female Fig. 48) distinctly wider than long, ratio between width and length = 2.0 in medium, with six to seven marginal setae, unidentate in the middle of front edge; color glossy metallic blue-violet, slightly darkened in front, sometimes briefly lightened on the middle tooth. Mandibles yellowish, brownish on apical and inner teeth. Labial and maxillary palpi testaceous, the last joint metallic dark; basal segment of labial palpi with long erected white setae. Antennae slender, long, reaching over the half of the elytral length in the male, slightly shorter in the female; scape with one long apical seta; antennomeres one to four rufous to brownish with metallic luster; antennomeres five to eleven dark blackish brown, dull, finely and evenly pubescent. Thorax: Pronotum slightly wider than long (ratio between width and length = 1.1 in medium), rounded at sides, slightly globose, glabrous, smooth with some irregular wrinkles on disc; color mostly glossy blue-violet, metallic bluish-green in the transversal constrictions and on front and hind collars. Sternae and episternae dark violaceus, proepisternum and mesepisternum glabrous, metepisternum and metasternum with some white setae apically; mesepisternum of females with a longitudinal furrow on the upper half. Elytra: (Fig. 44–45) parallel-sided; color dull purple-brown on front and middle disc, glossy metallic blue-violet on base, shoulders, the lateral sides, and the full apical third of elytra. Surface with a fine microsculpture, and some larger, evenly spaced, greenish or bluish punctures in the front third of elytra; preapical impression strong, apical microserration extremely fine; apical border distinctly rounded and restricted towards middle suture, sutural spine very tiny or nearly absent. Epipleura rufous. Ventral aspect: Venter mostly glabrous with few white setae, brownish black; coxae with white setae, testaceous; trochanters glabrous and testaceous; femora testaceous; tibiae and tarsi dark brownish with a metallic hue; legs covered with some white setae, mesotibiae more densely setose. Aedeagus: (Fig. 43) on left lateral view fusiform, stout and straight, tapering, enlarged in the middle, with a straight, slightly upturned apex (total length 2.1 mm).
