This species is the only one in this genus that has elytral pattern and can be separated from other species without difficulty. Its elytra is yellow-brown, with a pair of large semicircular dark spots in lateral sides which is extended to the lower sides of humeri; elytral asetiferous punctations larger than other species, with punctation diameter greater than interspace between 2nd-3rdPAP rows; antennae broadly extended laterally from 8th antennomere onwards. Supplementary description. Elytral wedge-shaped protuberance present on inner surface; elytral asetiferous punctations somewhat irregular, arranged in more than ten rows, PAP in ten rows, AAP on interspaces between 1st-2nd, 3rd-4th, and 5th-6thPAP rows, AAP setting in two rows on each interspace; AAP almost same size as PAP, which is more sizable than punctations in other species, with punctation diameter greater than interspace between 2nd-3rdPAP rows; both PAP and AAP beginning to decrease in size postmedially to apical third, and completely vanished at apical fifth; elytral inner surface with a wedge-shaped protuberance at lateral middle; tibiae spur formula 0-2-2 (other species in this genus 1-2-2); protibia with a blunt tooth at outer apex; 1st-2nd abdominal ventrites dark brown, 3rd-5th yellow, 6th light yellow to transparent; first abdominal ventrite strongly ridged behind coxae, intercoxal process raised, triangular, slightly longer than broad, grooved longitudinally. Distribution. Malaysia (Peninsular Malaysia, Sabah).
