Elytral striae 1-5 well-developed, deep, outer striae reduced to rows of foveae. Punctuation on striae dense and deep. First discal seta is in fourth interval, second discal seta is in third stria, while apical seta is positioned at place where second and third striae coalesce, slightly below the level of second humeral seta. First discal seta slightly before the level of third humeral seta. Second discal seta after the middle of elytra. Intervals are slightly convex (inner intervals more than outer ones). Disc relatively convex. The umbilicate series consists of eight setae on each elytron (four humeral, two median and two apical), while the humeral group of umbilicate pores is aggregated.
