Diagnosis. Specimens from Kenya has relatively short elytra, reduced elytral band, densely punctured and more transverser pronotum (1.5–1.54 times as wide as long, i.e. only 1.42 –1.47 in type form), with sides less sinuated towards posterior angles (Fig. 11). Internal sac with microtrichial patches composed of slightly larger spicules (Fig. 24).

Remarks. Due to the fact that the occurrence of these diagnostical features is limited to one geographic area, I propose a new subspecies S. (s.str.) africaorientalis kenyacus ssp. n. for allocation of these specimens.
