Lateral lobes of pronotum turning outwardly, posterior angles directed distinctly backwards, apex of posterior angles strident, posterior margin of each lateral lobe with two bisinuate. Tegmina ovate, length 2 times width, apex rounded. Hind wings extending over the end of pronotum. Upper and lower margins of fore and middle femora straight, the width of tegmina 1.7 times wider than width of midfemur.
