Propleura horizontal, in anterior half widely longitudinally excavated, gradually impressed towards antero-lateral corners of prosternum, forming indistinct groove for reception of antennal tip. Surface obsoletely reticulate, shallowly punctate, punctures equal to eye facets or indistinct; small area close to antero-lateral corners of prosternum with fine dense oblique wrinkles. Epipleuron about 1.55 (1.47-1.69) times as wide as base of mesosternum, feebly sloping dorso-laterally, rather deeply and widely excavated in anterior 0.7. Surface obsoletely rugose, densely covered with shallow punctures of inequal size but usually larger than eye facets. Prosternum moderately convex in middle, its anterior margin rather deeply semi-elliptically emarginate. Basisternal lobes rather narrow, flattened, at the narrowest part distinctly more than twice as wide as prosternal process. Prosternal process narrow, only finely saddle-shaped behind midlength, apex semicircular. Prosternal carinae parallel, reaching anterior third of length of prosternum. Surface of prosternum finely transversely wrinkled, finely and rather densely punctate, punctures becoming obsolete postero-laterally. Mesosternal process at base 1.18 (1.06-1.29) times as wide as long in middle, rather strongly convex. Anterior margin moderately carinulate, straight or very shallowly emarginate in middle. Surface without wrinkles or indistinctly transversely wrinkled, sometimes obsoletely reticulate, coarsely and nearly regularly punctate.
