The antennae are nearly half the length of the body, filiform, rather slender and slightly thickened towards the apex. The thorax is rather broader than long and subconical, the sides converging from the base to the apex, transversely convex, transversely depressed on the hinder disc, closely punctured. The hinder margin is elevated. The elytra are broader than the sides, parallel and very slightly enlarged towards the posterior angle. The apex is obtusely rounded, the outer margin nearly entire, obsoletely serrulate behind the middle and at the apex. Each elytron has eight, at the extreme base with nine, rows of large, deep punctres, the second, fourth, and sixth interspaces moderately costate.[3]
