Description
Figure 15.
Type material. Syntype series: 9 specimens. Type locality: Cuba, Provincia de Guantanamo, Yateras (FDZC). Zayas did not specify in his description which specimen should be the name bearer of this species. Until the specimens are available for study, a lectotype cannot be designated until statements can be made to positively identify the lectotype from the others (ICZN 1999, Article 74.7).
Diagnosis. Cranium, pronotum, legs flavotestaceous, antenna black, elytra brown. These characteristics will distinguish the members of this species from congeners.
Redescription. Size. Length 3.0 mm; width 0.7 mm. Form. As in Fig. 15. Color. Cranium, pronotum, legs flavotestaceous, antenna black, elytra and abdomen brown. Head. Cranium finely punctate, eyes prominent, frons much wider than length of pedicel; EW/FW 10/30. Thorax. Pronotum finely punctate, minimally expanded at middle 1/2; subapical depression faintly expressed; collar narrow; PW/PL 40/40; elytra punctations striate, striae reduced near elytral apex; EL/EW 150/70; short elytral setae decumbent, long elytral setae recumbent. Abdomen. Aedeagus not available for study.
Variation. Size. The available specimens are quite homogenous.
Distribution. This species is known from Cuba. I examined two specimens from the vicinity of Santiago de Cuba, Yaturita (FDZC).
