Diagnosis.

Among the Uloma isoceroides species group, Uloma monteithi can easily be distinguished by the mentum which is concave along the longitudinal axis (flat in all the other species of this group), shining, unpunctured. Male anterior tibiae strongly notched at base up to nearly half of the length of the inner face, then they extend straight to the apex. Pronotum upper surface finely punctate, sparser on the disc and denser on the sides. Elytra sharply striate-punctate, distinctly shallower at the apex. Elytral intervals quite flat, covered with extremely fine punctures, the background smooth and shining. Humeri not developed, metaventrite short like in isoceroides, wings reduced, flightless. Aedeagus (Fig. 3 M–N). Length: 8.2-9.0 mm.

Distribution.

So far, only known from the type locality.
