Eyes large, very prominent, convex, rounded, inserted in the lateral-upper part of head. Mandibles falciform, elongated. Maxillary palpi 4-segmented, with last palpomere robust, globular, and distally pointed. Labial palpi 3-segmented, with last palpomere globular and distally pointed. Antennae filiform, 11-segmented, relatively long surpassing the apex of elytra and approximately reaching the sixth-seventh tergite; antennomere I elongated, robust, club-shaped (enlarged from the middle to the apex); antennomere II elongated, rather thin, about 1.61.7 times shorter than antennomere I; antennomere III moderately more robust and slightly shorter than antennomere II; antennomere IV elongated, enlarged apically, the longest except scape and last antennomere; antennomeres VVIII subequal in length (antennomere VI very slightly shorter), shorter than previous one; antennomeres IXX slightly shorter than previous ones; antennomere XI elongated, rounded at apex; all antennomeres have several long setae. Pronotum transverse, narrower than head, surface almost flat with shallow punctation and short setae, sides straight and bordered, posterior and anterior margins rather bordered, corners rounded. Elytra short (revealing five tergites completely uncovered plus one uncovered in part), wider than pronotum, covered with shallow punctation and several erect setae, parallel-sided, strongly rounded at apexes, without apical yellow spots. Hind wings infuscate, exceeding the elytra and last abdominal segments. Legs slender, pubescent; coxae elongated and stout; trochanters elongated with rounded apex; femora enlarged, curved; tibiae cylindrical and thin, pro- and mesotibiae slightly shorter than pro- and mesofemora, metatibiae approximately as long as metafemora. Tarsi 5-segmented, pubescent; tarsomere I thin, elongated; tarsomere II shorter than tarsomere I; tarsomere III shorter than second; tarsomere IV strongly bilobed with lobes rounded at apex; tarsomere V elongated, slightly curved, slender; claws simple without tooth. Metasternum with rounded posterior margin, covered with many dispersed setae. Sternites transverse and pubescent. Penultimate tergite (tg9) elongated, rather wide with sides very slightly bent and enlarged apically; last tergite (tg10) narrower than penultimate tergite, short, in a small lobe shape rounded apically; last sternite (st9) with an elongated lobe shape (thinner from middle to apex), apically rounded and therefore without emargination-concavity. Aedeagus partially visible with parameres that are very long, thin but globular and robust apically. Female unknown.</paragraph>
