Diagnosis. This species is similar in appearance to other members of this species-group but can be distinguished by the shape of the antennae and genitalia. This species is only known from Three Kings Islands.
Redescription. Length 2.2–2.6 mm. Body brown, antennae, elytra, legs, and maxillary palpi paler ( Fig. 25a View Fig ). Head: Transverse, widest across temples ( Fig. 25a View Fig ). Antennomere 2 longer than wide, 3 subquadrate, 4 longer than wide, 5–10 subquadrate. Eye small and prominent, approximately one-third length of temple. Thorax: Prosternum weakly transverse, widest at midpoint. Elytra rectangular ( Fig. 25a View Fig ). Meso- and metathorax trapezoidal, as long as wide. Aedeagus: Median lobe slender, shorter than parameres ( Fig. 25d View Fig ). Phallobase of median lobe asymmetrical and rectangular ( Fig. 25d View Fig ). Parameres symmetrical with dense setae along midline ( Fig. 25d View Fig ).
Type Locality. Great Island , Three Kings Islands, New Zealand .
Distribution. Three Kings Islands ( Fig. 26 View Fig : black circle).
Habitat. Specimens of this species were collected by sifting leaf litter.
Comments. This species was described by Théry and Leschen (2013) with illustrations of habitus and diagnostic characters based on specimens collected only from the Three Kings Islands, an isolated archipelago ca. 60 km northwest of North Island. We based our study of this species on two paratypes.
