Frontoclypeal suture distinct, weakly arcuate, becoming obsolete laterally. Clypeus, frons and vertex somewhat dull, with rugulose microreticulation of transverse to isodiametric meshes and sparse, medium punctures bearing short, white, recumbent setae; reticulation and punctation especially strong on frons and vertex. Anteocular sulci broad, shallow, running from ocelli to frontoclypeal suture, open anterolaterally. Ocelli small and shining; head behind ocelli with sharp declivity. Compound eyes relatively small, occupying approx. 0.4 side of head, 12 ocelli in longest series.</paragraph>
