Comments. Neobaryssinus is characterized by its elytra with erect setae, central basal cristae with bristles ( Fig. 7 ), and two longitudinal carinae: the lateral carina starts behind the humeral angle and the inner carina is less obvious. Males are characterized by the dense ventral pubescence, enlarged profemora, and dilated pro- and mesotarsi.
