Length of genitalia from apex of median lobe to the base of phallobase 0.70 mm. PL/EL = 3.6. Median lobe sharply pointed and slightly slender.......................................... Simplocarina angolensis Matsumoto sp. nov. – Outer margin of the elytra gently rounded. Overall body shape nearly circular. In males the ratio of AB and BC for the genitalia is 2.0-2.2. Length of genitalia from apex of median lobe to the base of phallobase 0.80-0.83 mm. PL/EL = 3.8 to 4.0. Median lobe slightly blunted and slightly broader........................................
