B. sarcocuon is unique in that the males possess a horizontal groove on the clypeus situated beneath the eyes. This groove is actually a pair of sulci, separated in the middle by a ridge of integument. The floor of each sulcus features irregularly-shaped clusters of small pores; the function of these pores, which may or may not be sexual in nature, is currently unknown.[2]
