03FFC448E37D9F32BEFD8A6EFAF1F819.taxon	description	Description. Male holotype: Length 10.0 mm. Width 2.5 mm. Body cylindrical, elongate and tapering towards elytral apex; uniformly dark reddish-brown; antennae dark reddish, except pedicel; pedicel dark reddish-brown; legs dark reddish-brown; head, pronotum and elytra clothed with very short, yellowish, recumbent setae (Fig. 4). Head: Very closely punctate to confluently rugose, subspherical; frons convex, with median groove; surface dull; apical margin of frontoclypeal region feebly trilobed, 2.0 times wider than base; mandibles stout, bidentate, densely punctate and rugose. Antennae (Fig. 5): loosely moniliform to weakly serrate, reaching to hind angles of pronotum; antennomere III shorter than combined lengths of IV and V; antennomeres IV – V each shorter than VI, slightly longer than wide; antennomere VI slightly shorter than VII, slightly longer than wide; antennomeres VII – X subequal, slightly longer than wide; antennomere XI asymmetrically elongate, longer than X. Pronotum: granulose; surface dull; longer than wide, with moderately sharp hind angles; sides gradually wider toward front, apical 1 / 4 strongly arcuate, hooded over vertex; disc convex, without circular foveae; median groove extends from base to middle; base sinuous. Scutellar shield: dull, rugose, rectangular and distally bifid with median groove. Elytra: striate; interstices slightly elevated; surfaces transversely rugose. Legs: first tarsomere as long as combined lengths of remaining four on mesothoracic and metathoracic tarsi; tibiae rounded in cross section; metathoracic tarsomeres I – III simple; metathoracic tarsomere IV excavate-emarginate; metathoracic tarsomere V elongate, with basally toothed claws. Venter (Fig. 6): finely punctate to rugose, with very short, yellowish recumbent setae; hypomeron simple, without antennal grooves; metathoracic episternum parallel-sided; metathoracic coxal plates medially 3.0 – 6.0 times wider than laterally. Aedeagus (Fig. 7): basal piece obscured, inserted inside abdomen; remaining genitalia elongate, without secondary lateral lobes; lateral lobes strongly sinuous, constricted at anterior 1 / 4; lateral tooth present at anterior 1 / 4; apices of lateral lobe rounded, divergent anterolaterally; median lobe as long as lateral lobe, narrowly bifid. Variations. Three male and one female paratypes were examined, including one Laotian male communicated from J. Muona. The female paratype is 12.5 mm long and 3.0 mm wide, much larger and wider than the holotype. The three male paratypes are 7.5 – 8.0 mm long and 2.0 mm wide, all being shorter and narrower than the holotype. A median groove on the frons is slightly indicated in all paratypes compared against the holotype. No other exoskeletal differences were observed between these paratypes and the holotype.	en	Otto, Robert L.
