Description. Integument shining, dark-brown; parts of head and of mandibles, margins of pronotum, epipleura and elytral suture blackish.

Male ( Fig. 431 ). Dorsal surface of head, on gibbosities, somewhat fine and abundantly punctate; area between gibbosities and occiput somewhat coarser and sparser than on gibbosities; area between gibbosities and ocular carina strongly depressed, with some fine punctures; area behind eyes barely coarse and sparse; ocular carina elevated, clearly bifurcated in “Y” near posterior edge of eyes ( Fig. 453 ). Eyes narrow ( Fig. 101 ); posterior ocular edge ( Fig. 431 ) very distinct. Central area of clypeus almost vertical close to front. Central projection of labrum ( Fig. 47 ) wide and truncate at apex. Submentum slightly depressed; punctation moderately coarse, well defined and sparse; pilosity moderately long, sparse; anterior margin wide and elevated throughout. Mandibles approximately as long as head; teeth of inner margin ( Fig. 168 ) placed around middle. Ventral sensorial area of antennomeres III-XI ( Fig. 241 ) not visible from side, and not divided by carina.

Pronotum finely, sparsely punctate on disc; area close to anterior angles microsculptured ( Fig. 453 ), with punctures coarse and abundant, in part oblong and with edge toward outer side of pronotum elevated; median and posterior areas with punctures coarse and sparse; anterior angles not projected forward, but distinct; lateral angles barely indicated; posterior angles distinct; anterior edge ( Fig. 431 ) barely sinuous. Elytra coarsely and abundantly punctate (punctures finer at apical third, and at anterior two-thirds near suture); each elytron with two vague carinae. Metasternum with punctures coarse and moderately abundant laterally, finer and sparser toward metasternal suture. Metafemur ( Fig. 432 ) moderately elongated. Dorsal surface of tibiae flat. Metatarsomere V (without claws) longer than I-III together ( Fig. 284 ).

Female ( Fig. 434 ). Punctation of dorsal surface of head somewhat coarse and sparse throughout. Central projection of labrum ( Fig. 48 ) narrow and rounded at apex. Mandible as in Fig. 169 . Pronotum with same kind and distribution of punctures, but without microsculptured area near anterior angles, and without punctures with edge elevated; anterior angles clearly projected forward; anterior edge clearly sinuous.

Variability. Mandibles fully blackish.

Dimensions in mm (M / F). Total length (including mandibles), 20.0-20.2/17.5-20.4; prothorax: length, 4.4-4.5/3.7-4.3; anterior width, 5.6-5.8/4.3-4.8; posterior width, 4.5-5.0/4.0-4.5; humeral width, 5.4-5.9/ 4.9-6.1; elytral length, 11.7-11.9/10.7-13.3.

Comments. Komiyandra philippinensis is similar to K. shibatai and K. lanyuana , but differs, mainly, by the body ( Fig. 431 ) more robust. In K. shibatai ( Fig. 410 ) and K. lanyuana ( Fig. 416 ), the body is slimmer. Differs from K. javana by the ocular carina clearly bifurcated in “Y” near the posterior ocular edge ( Fig. 453 ). In K. javana , the ocular carina is not bifurcated in “Y” ( Fig. 419 ), or the bifurcation is slightly indicated. See comments on K. irianjayana .
