Eyes very prominent, rounded, inserted laterally to the head. Mandibles falciform. Maxillary palps 4 segmented, with the last palpomere securiform. Labial palps 3 segmented with the last palpomere securiform. Antennae 11 segmented, pectinate, inserted in the frons, relatively long, surpassing the half of the elytra; scape clubshaped, not particularly robust, slightly enlarged apically; antennomere II very short, globular; antennomere III short, slightly longer than second, triangularshaped; antennomeres IV–IX subequal, robust, swollen, over two times longer than antennomeres II–III together, each antennomere with a long process inserted near the base; antennomere X leaner than previous ones but subequal in length, with a long process near the base; antennomere XI elongate, sturdier, squadrate apically; all antennomeres with setae.Pronotum transverse, wider than head, anterior margin rounded and slightly bordered, posterior margin almost straight and bordered, sides rather curved, surface almost flat with pubescence. Scutellum triangularshaped, elongated, with a subtruncate apex. Elytra wider than pronotum, robust, rounded at apex, not covering the last abdominal segment (and very slightly the penultimate), slightly wider at humeri, surface presenting a coarse and very wide punctation gathered in evident striae visible for the entire elytral length. Metathoracic wings slightly infuscate, longer than elytra. Sternum elongate and robust. Sternites transverse, last tergite as a caudal appendage which is relative short and rounded apically, last sternite narrower than last tergite. Legs long and slender with short and fitted pubescence; coxae short, robust; trochanters elongated with rounded apex; femora curved, sturdier than tibiae; tibiae thin, elongated, cylindrical, longer than femora, with a long spur at apex. Tarsal formula 5 5 5; first tarsomere elongated, about 1.4 times longer than second; second tarsomere elongated (pro and mesotarsomere triangularshaped); third tarsomere triangular, shorter than previous one; fourth tarsomere lobated at corners; fifth tarsomere very elongated, thin, curved, slightly enlarged apically; claws simple, very long, apparently without tooth at the base (with the base not enlarged).</paragraph>
