( Figs 3 View Fig A–C)
Remarks: Described from a single specimen collected in Angola (Darby 2018) and not known from any other country since. Superficially similar to Ptenidium with a rounded and polished dorsal surface but the pronotum is without foveae, and the procoxae are contiguous without a keel. Figures of the pronotal margin, scutellum, and elytral humerus, not included in my original description, are now added.
