Nepal, Sankhua Sabha distr., Kangla Khola E Thudam, 4100—4200 m, dwarf Rhododendron, rock debris, V. 1988 leg. Martens & Schawaller, 10 males, 1 female (ISU, SMNS, ZFMK). This species was described from Sikkim (Ratong Chu) on a single female collected in an elevation of 11 000 feet. The taxonomical status was unclear, Andrewes (1936) compared it with barbata Andrewes. The redescription is given below. Size moderate, standardized body length male , female mm. Pitch-black, shiny, legs dark piceous with testaceous tarsi and tibiae (in some individuals tibia infuscated), antennae entirely red-brown, or antennal scape slightly infuscated. Head with shallow transverse impression behind prominent eyes; labrum with anterior margin straight or faintly prominent, bearing 6 setae; apical margin of clypeus straight or scarcely concave; frontal furrows hardly discernible, vertex faintly wrinkled; only with 1 pair of supraorbital setae. Antennae long and slender, extending in female to the middle of elytra, in male longer; antennal scape almost straight, with faintly sinuated apical margin, slightly narrowed basally, bearing 1 seta, second antennomere with 1 or 2 seta(e), third antennomere.
