Head longer than wide, length from anterior clypeal margin to occipital constriction 0.47 mm, width across eyes 0.27 mm (Fig. 1 B), frontal rostrum conspicuously narrowing anteriorly in front of anterior margin of eyes and dilating at level of antennal bases (Fig. 1 B); anterior margin of frons with small triangular projection at middle, frontal sulcus without dense apical pubescence, narrow and deep anteriorly and somewhat dilating and gradually disappearing posteriorly; each eye with nine small facets; maxillary palpus (Fig. 1 C) elongate, palpomere II longer than palpomere I; length of palpomere 1.05 mm, palpomere I 0.2 mm, II 0.27 mm, III 0.07 mm, IV 0.51 mm. Length of antenna 1.3 mm; antennomere I subcylindrical, more than three times as long as wide, slightly wider than antennomere II; antennomere II about 1.5 times as long as wide; antennomeres III-VIII of subequal width, slightly narrower than antennomere II, antennomeres III-VII approximately twice as long as wide, antennomere VIII slightly shorter, and antennomere IX considerably wider than preceding segments, approximately as wide as antennomere II, but much longer, approximately twice as long as wide; antennomere X somewhat slightly wider than antennomere IX, antennomere XI shorter than antennomeres IX and X together, but considerably wider than them, widest slightly before middle. Pronotum widest near middle, length along midline 0.48 mm, maximum width 0.38 mm; antebasal fovea small, puncture-like, lateral foveae larger.

First tergite largest, widest near middle. Length of dorsally visible part of abdomen (posterior to elytra) along midline 0.82 mm, maximum width 0.92 mm; sternite IV (second visible sternite) slightly impressed medially. Aedeagus (Fig. 1 C) slightly asymmetric dorso-ventrally, length 0.48 mm. Female, similar to male in general appearance; each eye composed of nine small facets. Measurements of body parts: body length 2.24 mm, length of head 0.44 - 0.46 mm, width of head 0.27 - 0.29 mm, length of antenna 1.19 - 1.20 mm, length of pronotum 0.43 - 0.44 mm, width of pronotum 0.38 mm, length of elytra 0.59 - 0.61 mm, width of elytra 0.77 - 0.80 mm, length of abdomen 0.75 - 0.76 mm, width of abdomen 0.87 mm.	en	Yin, Zi-Wei, Jiang, Ri-Xin (2016): Taxonomic notes on the genus Bellenden Chandler (Coleoptera, Staphylinidae, Pselaphinae).
