Type material examined. Pൺඋൺඍඒඉൾ: 1 ♀ ( Figs 277–281 View Figs 277–281 ), ‘[Sichuan, Mt. Emei / 1957.8.29. / Chinese Academy of Sciences] [in Chinese, w, combined p and h] // [Jiulao cave / Collector: You-Cai Lu] [in Chinese, w, combined p and h] // PARATYPE [y, p] // IOZ(E)1966991 [w, p] // Liroetis grandis / Chen [w, p]’ ( IZAS).

Body length. ♀ (paratype): 13.8 mm (♀♀: 15.0 mm based on the original description).
Female ( Figs 277–280 View Figs 277–281 ). Pronotum convex, 1.35 times as wide as long, lustrous, impunctate, anterior margin unbordered. Scutellum with small grooves at basal angles ( Fig. 280 View Figs 277–281 ). Metatibial spur absent. Female genitalia not examined.
Differential diagnosis. Having completely pale coloured pronotum and bicolour legs L. grandis is very similar to L. suwai and L. paragrandis . Liroetis grandis can be distinguished by presence of two small grooves at basal angles of scutellum ( Fig. 280 View Figs 277–281 ) which are missing in L. suwai and L. paragrandis .
