Eugeusis lineatus Pic, 1921:11 .

Type material. Holotype of Eugeusis lineatus Pic, 1921 , male, “ India, Shembaganur” ( MNHP).

Diagnosis. Closely related to L. tsurui Kawashima, 2007 from which it differs in body coloration showing longitudinal yellow stripe on each elytron, broader aedeagus, and parameral apices widely separated ( Fig. 55 View FIGURES 43 – 60 ).

Redescription. Body yellow, only antennae, scutellum, basal 2/3 of elytral suture and posterior 5/6 of lateral elytral margins dark brown (i.e. each elytron with longitudinal yellow stripe medially). Eyes small, hemispherical, distance between eyes 2x longer than eye diameter. Terminal maxillary palpomere 10x longer than penultimate palpomeres. Antennae filiform, reaching over elytral humeri, antennomeres 3–11 decreasing distally. Pronotum 1.8x wider than long, posterior angles triangularly projected posteriad. Elytra widest in basal third, elytral sutural margins divergent in posterior quarter, each elytron 2.8x longer than humeral width ( Fig. 7 View FIGURES 1 – 9 ). Terminal abdominal tergum emarginate distally. Terminal and penultimate terga separated by narrow opening, partly overlapping laterally, proximal projection of penultimate tergum as long as combined length of terminal and penultimate tergum ( Fig.38 View FIGURES 27 – 42. 27 ). Phallus as long as 4/5 of parameres, parameres slightly angular laterodistally ( Fig. 55 View FIGURES 43 – 60 ), parameral apices broadly separated, internal thorn of parameral apex situated terminally, base of phallus with 2 strong angular projections. Body length: 6.25 mm, humeral width: 2.4 mm.
