, this species can be told by the glossy discal elytral intervals, their surface without any microsculpture, the only microsculpture on the elytra confined to the deepest portions of the narrowly incised striae, where indistinct isodiametric sculpticells occur near the small, elongate strial punctures. The frons, clypeus, and vertex are rufopiceous, with the pronotal disc slightly paler, a dark rufobrunneous. The elytra are contrastedly paler, with a ground color of dark rufoflavous, and a piceous cloud on each elytron that spans elytral intervals 2-4 and centers on the posterior dorsal elytral seta. The elytra are more ovate than in

The frons is covered with mixed isodiametric and transverse-mesh microsculpture that occurs on the flat surfaces between the transverse wrinkles, and the pronotal disc is covered with an indistinct transverse mesh, sculpticell breadth 2
