Remarks. An image of the lectotype (NHMW) was examined. The species is transferred to Microperus Wood, 1980 because of the following characteristics: scutellum narrow, minute, convex and slightly raised above elytra; dense tuft of setae present along elytral base associated with an elytral mycangium; elytral bases sinuate, costate; pronotum from dorsal view basic and parallel-sided (type 2); anterior margin of pronotum without a row of serrations.
