MEXICO • Zacatecas (new state record): 1974 m, 2.4 km E San Lorenzo , 21°57'54"N, 103°12'19"W, 2 females, 17. VII. 2017, R. Cunningham & G. Nogueira leg. ( MZSP) .

Remarks.

This species was described based on a single male (see photographs on Bezark 2023 a and original description) from Mexico (Jalisco). The females differ from males by the antennae distinctly shorter, slightly surpassing elytra apex (surpassing the elytral apex at apical third of the antennomere VI in males), antennomeres III – VI not widened (distinctly widened in males). The holotype male has four small yellowish-brown elytral maculae on the dorsal surface, two on the anterior half and two on the posterior half. The two females examined have the two anterior and posterior longitudinal maculae are fused by an oblique band, the anterior oblique band is paler than the maculae in one female.
