Description: Length of body 3.5 mm; from anterior margin of head to posterior margin of elytra: about 1.9 mm. Head without lateral grooves.

Etymology: The specific epithet is the Latin lanceolatus (spear shaped), in relation to the shape of the apex of the median lobe.

Distribution: The species is known only from the type locality.
