Pubescence short, appressed and sparse, excepted on middle of metaventrite, and for patches of white squamous setae covering venter of head posterior gular mound, most of proventrite and mesoventrite, apices of elytra, apical margin of metaventrite and bases of tergite Iand ventrite II. Head narrow, elongate, with frontal rostrum prominent, antennaltubercles smooth, postantennal notches absent. Frontal ridges extended to level of eye mid-length. Mesal sulcus glabrous, narrow, parallel-sided or somewhat widened apically, extended onto vertical part of frontoclypeus, lacking setose patch between antennal tubercles. Anterior margin of frontal rostrum notched in dorsal view. Vertex abruptly raised. Vertexal foveae setose, in globous pocket, oblique, situated at level of posterior eye margin. Eyes small, prominent, anterior eyes margins about at head-mid-length. Temple rounded. Genae reticulate, explanate. Gular-mandibular carinae conspicuous, forming prominent lateroventral margin of anterior part of head. Antennae 11-segmented, antennomeres Iand II reticulate, club 3-segmented, weekly formed, segment XI asymmetrical. Maxillary palpi elongate, segment Inarrow, cylindrical, bent, segment II long, pedunculate, about 3 times as long as segment I, longer than half of head length, with peduncle much longer than enlarged apical part, slightly swollen at base, segment III short, subtriangular, long about as wide, segment IV pedunculate, bent, lacking sensory area and without apical notch and lateral sulcus, basal part of peduncle glabrous, apical part of peduncle and enlarged apical part appearing reticulate, densely, very finely studded, with short, bent setae. Gula strongly swollen, gular lacking striae. Gular foveae narrowly separated, obscured by setose patch. Pronotum evenly convex, rounded laterally, widest about at mid-point, with distinct antebasal lateral foveae, punctiform antebasal median fovea, without antebasal sulcus, basal area glabrous. Elytra short, strongly widened apically, not impressed basally, basal margin not raised, with three basal foveae, middle basal fovea oblique, antebasal fovea lacking, discal carinae close to adsutural carinae or absent. Hind wings atrophied. Proventrite with setose patch reaching nearly lateral margins, obscuring foveae. Mesoventrite covered by setose patch; foveae obscured. Metaventrite asetose. Legs without spines Femora clavate, reticulate. Tibiae thickened apically. Third tarsomeres subcylindrical, narrower and longer than second tarsomeres. Abdomen with tergite Imuch longer than rest of tergites combined, convex, widened apically, with rounded lateral margins, deep basal sulcus and large basolateral and mediobasal foveae obscured by rows of flat setae; apical margins of tergites broadly rounded. Ventrite II with deep basal sulcus obscured by rows of flat setae. Aedeagus symmetrical, median lobe sub-oval, with strongly sclerotized ventral process, parameres asetose, weakly sclerotized. Basal bulb delimited apicodorsally by transverse sclerotizedband, with conspicuous dorsal vesicle below window in bulb’s dorsal sclerotization, attached by muscles to ventral side of bulb; internal sac with two narrow admesal rods.
