Body blackish-brown, with distinct pubescence; legs and antennae orange-brownish, last segments infuscate. Head with distinct elevated median portion of frons, distinctly exceeding the high of the inner eye margin (see arrow, Fig. 2). Labrum with long protruding silvery pubescence.

Pronotum densely punctated, largest punctures as large as basal cross-section of antennomere III; with small irregular depressions, longitudinal furrows not visible. Legs slender; tarsomeres with distinct pubescence, metatarsomere I as long as the combined length of metatarsomeres II – III, tarsomere IV very weakly bilobed. Elytra broadest in posterior third, humeral angles prominent, posterior ends protruding beyond the posterior margin. Punctation widely, punctures about as large as those on pronotum, interstices larger than diameter of punctures. Coloration indistinctly discernible, possibly with one orange spot each in the posterior third (Fig. 1). Abdomen with very distinct pubescence; marginated, details of paratergites not clearly visible; row of u-shaped basal impression on tergite III. Male. Unknown. Female.

D i f f e r e n t i a l d i a g n o s i s: The new species is distinguished from Festenus gracilis ŻYŁA et al., 2017 and Festenus robustus ŻYŁA et al., 2017 by its habitus, the size, the coloration of elytra and the cap-like elevation on the frons of the head. E t y m o l o g y: The species epithet " annodutt " (German, colloquially: " anno dutt " from long ago) refers to the fact that the new species originates from the long ago time of the Late Cretaceous.	en	Mainda, Tobias, C, Late (2023): Festenus annodutt nov. sp. from Burmese amber (Coleoptera, Staphylinidae, Steninae).
