Nevertheless, the lack of systematic information for the genitalic characters of the entire genus highlights the need for further taxonomic studies. A synthesis based on previous taxonomic descriptions and material examined is presented below:
. Postclypeus rounded in lateral view with longitudinal carina in median part and transverse ridges. Rostrum short, barely extending to base of median trochanter. Antennae short. Vertex as broad as long with length equal to half length of pronotum. Ocelli closer to each other than to compound eyes.
