Description of the female - Moderately shiny; entirely black with antennae, legs ferruginous; covered with dense, recumbent, yellow-fulvous vestiture (Fig. 38). Frons convex, anterior margin V-shaped, reaching the inferior part of clypeus; punctures umbilicate with close interstices. Antennae not reaching for about 1.5 antennomere the apices of posterior angles of pronotum, moderately serrate from fourth antennomere; second and third antennomeres subequal in length, the second more cylindrical and with slightly larger diameter; second and third, taken together, notably longer than fourth; fourth to tenth triangular, a little longer than broad; last antennomere longer than penultimate, ellipsoidal. Pronotum 1.1 times wider than long, widest at middle and at hind angles; very convex on the disk, abruptly sloping at sides and base, with a vestige of narrow, smooth midlongitudinal line; sides moderately arcuate, strongly narrowing at anterior third, slightly sinate before posterior angles, the latter long, rather acute and slightly divergent at apex; carina departing from the apices of angles, running straightly for two-third of pronotal length and distinct in dorsal view; punctation rather variable, on the disk with deep, simple to vaguely umbilicate punctures, interspaces on average equal to their own diameters, sparser at base, denser, clearly umbilicate and nearly contiguous at anterior margin and sides. Scutellum tongue-shaped, flat, sparsely punctured. Elytra as broad as pronotum at base, convex; widest at middle; striae well marked and punctured; interstraie flat to subconvex, finely punctured. Fourth tarsomere deeply furrowed, a little longer than wide. Propleura with elongate and narrow, gradually enlarged from middle to base, alutaceous area at sides. Bursa copularix sclerified as in Fig. 39. Size. Length 5.5-6.3 mm; width 1.56-1.82 mm. Glyphonyx chipenensis KlSHII, 1994 Glyphonyx chipenensis KlSHII, 1994b: 13; SUZUKI 1999: 212.
