[JF2015] is distinct from other congenerics in having irregular rows of setae on the elytra, where the setae do not form regular rows as in most other species. The setae are generally a lighter color, and are arranged in offset rows on the intervals. The elytra are strongly, distinctly punctate. The punctured elytral striae give this species a uniquely
<normalizedToken originalValue="pin-striped">'pin-striped'</normalizedToken>
appearance (see Etymology). The pronotum is medially incurved on both the anterior and posterior margins. The head is distinctly conical in appearance, and is curved medially. The metatibiae are apically strongly convex and covered with setae similar in length to the surrounding setae, somewhat translucent, and slightly lamelliform. The spermatheca has the ramus elongate, annulate, and sub-apically situated on the corpus. The aedeagus is broad, and tapers to the apex. The aedeagal flagellum terminates in an apical sclerite that is irregularly sinuate and tortuous, and is nearly as large as the Aedeagal pedon itself.
