Type depository. Lectotype female and three syntypes (two males, one female) in SDEI.

Type status. Lectotype female! (here designated) Type labels: “von Waagen, Darjeeling ” [handwritten]; “Waagenorum mihi” [handwritten, light yellow, with black borders]; “Type!, Dr. W. Horn “ [printed, with black borders]; ”Syntypus“ [printed, red]; “LECTOTYPE THERATES waagenorum W. HORN, 1900 , ded J. Wiesner 2013” [printed, red] . Syntypes! Type labels: “ Darjeeling ” [handwritten]; “coll. Waagen “ [handwritten]; ”Syntypus“ [printed, red] .

Nomenclatural note. Horn (1910: 194) described waagenorum based on a female specimen. It is here designated as Lectotype.

Diagnosis. Distinguished by the combination of reddish frons of the head and isolated punctures of the elytra.

Re-description. Size: Total length (without labrum) 5.7 mm- 6.2 mm, (mean= 5.9 mm, n=4). Head: Shining greenish black, frons reddish as a whole or partly in front and in the middle. Mandibles yellowish, brownish distally in females, teeth brownish marginally. Labrum (male Fig. 403 View Figures 390-404 , female Fig. 404 View Figures 390-404 ) as wide as long, yellowish, brownish laterally in one specimen, with six apical teeth and one lateral tooth. Labial and maxillary palpi yellowish. Antennae extending posteriorally to the elytral shoulders in females, slightly longer in the males, scape with a single apical bristle, antennomeres 2 to 5 glabrous, the antennomeres 6 to 11 finely and evenly pubescent; scape yellowish above, black on underside, all the other antennal segments brownish. Clypeus glabrous. Frons smooth with two shallow bumps in the posterior part of the orbital plates. Thorax: Pronotum shining greenish black, slightly longer than wide, constricted in front and at back, transverse furrows strong, middle line and lateral lines nearly obsolete. Elytra: Shining brownish black, with basal and apical humps, distinctly punctate in frons, shallower in the apical third ( Fig. 399 View Figures 390-404 ). Apex with roundish lateral corner and a sutural tooth, slightly recurved between. Maculation ( Figs. 400, 401 View Figures 390-404 ) composed of a brownish yellow humeral lunule, brownish yellow basal dot,yellow horizontal central dot which is acutely angled outwards toward the front, and light yellow apex which extends forward to the apical humps. The humeral lunule is connected to the basal and central dots in variable extension. Ventral aspect: Venter black. Legs yellowish, tibiae and tarsomeres somewhat darker distally. Aedeagus: ( Fig. 402 View Figures 390-404 ) slightly curved, broadly rounded distally, total length 1.4 mm.

Distribution. India (West Bengal).
