This genus superficially resembles some species of Oncideres Lacordaire, 1830 and Psyllotoxoides Breuning, 1961 but can be distinguished by the combination of the following characters: eyes with lower lobes large; frons distinctly flat; pronotum with glabrous median tubercle; and base of elytra with arcuate, strongly elevated cristae.
