PARATYPES: 2 JJ 2 ♀♀, same label data as holotype (MHBU).</p> <p>Description. Body dark-brown.</p> <p>Head oval, length/width ratio 39: 40, widest at anterior margin of eyes. Eyes completely divided by genae, dorsal side with about 25 facets in three rows, ventral side with about 16 facets.Anterior margin of clypeus straight, lateral margin straightly narrowing forwards together with genae. Genae slightly arcuate before eyes. Tempora slightly arcuate and converging backwards. Dorsum densely covered with long yellow setae and with dense oval punctures, punctures on clypeus rounded and smaller. Antennae length reaching to basal 1/6 of pronotum; antennomere 3 1.7 times as long as wide; antennomere 10 widest; relative length ratio of antennomeres 2–11 as follows: 7.7: 12.0: 8.1: 8.0: 8.0: 8.0: 7.0: 7.6: 8.7: 9.0.</p> <p>Pronotum approximately cordiform, obviously wider than head; length/width ratio 49: 51; widest at apical 1/4. Anterior margin straight; lateral margins arched; posterior margin straight in middle, slightly arched on sides. Anterior angles rectangular, posterior angles obtuse. Dorsum convex, median longitudinal depression long and shallow; densely covered with long yellow setae and densely covered with oval punctures, punctures somewhat confluent. Propleura densely covered with strong oval punctures, each with a short yellow seta.</p> <p>Elytra oblong, 1.8 times as long as wide, 1.4 times as wide as pronotum, widest in middle.

The new species is similar to Pseudethas (Stenillus) weigeli Fouqué, 2008, but differs from the later as follows: pronotum approximately cordiform; median longitudinal depression of pronotum longer; the shape of aedeagus is different from P.

HOLOTYPE: J, ‘ CHINA: XIZANG: Lhasa, 23.viii.2003, Ren Guodong leg.’ (MHBU). PARATYPES: 5 JJ 4 ♀♀, same label data as holotype (MHBU).</p> <p>Discussion. The status of Indochillus convexigena Ren &amp; Shi, 2006 was questioned by FOUQUÉ (2008). The species should be transferred to the subgenus Pseudethas of the genus Pseudethas based on the following characters: elytral surface flattened, lateral margins of elytra parallelsided; base of elytra wider than pronotal base; epipleura of elytra with one row of punctures; males possessing small tooth on inner side of meso- and metatibiae; tempora convex laterally behind eyes; shallow median depression present on disc of pronotum. The species is similar to Pseudethas (Pseudethas) ladakhensis Kaszab, 1978 (KASZAB et al. 1978), but differs from the latter as follows: punctures of pronotum sparser; humeral angles of elytra rounded and not expending outwards; and antennae being more slender.</p> <p>Distribution.
