DIAGNOSIS.— Adults of this subgenus (Figs. 12a, 13a) can be recognized by the following combination of character states: size moderate (BL = 3.5 to 4.8 mm), apterous, body dark, reddish brown to piceous, surface micaceous; pronotum with basal angles prolonged posteriorly as slender digitiform processes, with two setae (midlateral and basolateral) present on each side; elytra markedly convex, inflated, slightly tear-shaped, humeri effaced, elytral discal striae effaced, with two (in most members) or three (in a few members) discal setae present, aligned on interval 3 near stria 3, preapical seta absent from most members. GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION.— Same as for genus (see above). Key for Identification of Adults of Subgenus Queinnectrechus species of the Gaoligong Shan Region 1. Size larger (BL = 4.3 to 4.8 mm), elytra (Fig. 12a) more elongate; median lobe of male aedeagus broadest at mid-shaft, with apex long and recurved. . . . . . . . . . . . . Q. griswoldi sp. nov.
