. Dorsum black; head and pronotum with mottled green iridescence. Elytra slightly iridescent laterally, sometimes with a small, round, green iridescent patch on each elytron; some specimens are without any distinct iridescence. Maxillary palpi yellow, with tip of apical segment slightly darkened. Labial palpi yellow. Mentum and stipes dark brown, same color as venter of head. Anterolateral corners of pronotum with pale white to yellow spot. Sternum dark brown; legs moderately to extremely paler except for base of femora. Epipleura and pseudoepipleura yellow. Each ventrite dark brown with light brown patches laterally.

. Punctation on frons, clypeus, and labrum moderately fine; clypeus slightly more densely punctuate anteriorly. Scape subequal in length to slightly longer than segments 2–5, segment 2 equal in length to segments 3–5, segments 3 and 4 equal in length; segments 6 and 7 subequal in length with apical segment slightly longer. Maxillary palpi ¾ length of width of labrum; segments 2 and 3 subequal with apical segment slightly longer. Labial palpi ¾ length of mentum; apical two segments subequal in length. Labrum usually with 2–4 faint systematic punctures centrally, sometimes bearing short setae. Clypeus with systematic punctures absent or indistinct from surrounding punctation. Frons with a faint, irregular row of systematic punctures mesad of each eye. Mentum quadrate, anterior margin slightly convex, with several punctures of mixes sizes, a few bearing long erect setae.

Lateral margin of pronotum with row of short setiferous punctures; anterior and posterior series of systematic punctures, with recumbent setae; largely obscured by general punctation. Sutural punctation of elytra extremely fine, single dense irregular row, not bearing setae. Rows of punctures on elytra diffuse and almost obsolete, blending with surrounding punctation; only slightly larger then general punctation and sometimes bearing a short seta. Lateral margin of elytra with row of setiferous punctures, more dense in posterior half and appearing as a short yellow fringe. Prosternum carinate medially, with two long hairs anteromedially which are longer than narrowest point of prosternum. Mesosternal process about as long as wide; with aggregation of 6–8 punctures bearing long hairs at apex. Metasternum with elongate­oval glabrous area posteromedially, slightly longer than wide; slightly less than half the width of metasternum. Procoxae densely pubescent, without spines. Protibia with 7–9 spines of dorsal face. Protarsal segments 1–4 small, subequal in length; segment 5 as long as segments 1–4.
