Diagnosis. This species can be distinguished from other species by the following combination of characters: body larger, length 2.2–2.8 mm; frontal rostrum prominent; anterior and posterior frontal foveae deep and largely oval; ventral surface of male head with distinct triangular process bearing dense setae behind mouthparts; shape of antennomeres and genitalia unique to this species.
Redescription. Length 2.2–2.8 mm. Body reddish to blackish brown, antennae, legs, maxillary palpi, and elytra paler (Fig. 43a). Head: Round, widest across eyes (Fig. 43c). Ventral surface of male head with distinct triangular process bearing dense setae behind mouthparts (Fig. 43d). Antennomere 1 approximately 2 times longer than wide, 2 longer than wide, 3 subquadrate, 4–5 longer than wide, 6–10 subquadrate. Frontal rostrum prominent. Frontal sulcus deep, slightly exceeding eye (Fig. 43c). Anterior and posterior frontal foveae oval (Fig. 43c). Eye prominent, one-third length of temple (Fig. 43c). Thorax: Prosternum as long as wide, widest at one-third length. Elytra rectangular (Fig. 43a). Meso- and metathorax trapezoidal, longer than wide. Abdomen: Tergite IV with pair of transverse patches of microtrichia reaching middle. Aedeagus: Median lobe elongate and divided vertically, dorsal process small and triangular (Fig. 43b). Phallobase of median lobe symmetrical and rounded (Fig. 43b). Parameres symmetrical and wide with setae anteriorly (Fig. 43b).
Type Locality. Moa Hill, Mid Canterbury, New Zealand.
Distribution. Buller, Mid Canterbury, North Canterbury, Nelson, Otago Lakes, Southland, Westland (Fig. 44: black circles).
