Male: aedeagus (Figs 182–183) in ventral view with capsular region of median lobe conspicuously small, as wide as long and truncate distally, in lateral view dorsal apical projection massive and curved ventrad, and dorsal apical projection also thick but straight, parameres of conspicuously uneven lengths.</p><p><b>Description.</b> Body of male (Fig. 181) moderately strongly convex, oval, with barely discernible constriction between pronotum and elytra, moderately dark brown with slightly lighter tarsi, covered with light brown setae.
