The impressions of the anterior dorsal elytral setae span 2/3 of interval 3, whereas the impression of a posterior seta, if present, is small, spanning half or less of interval 3. The body coloration overall is also darker in specimens of this species versus those of the former two; 1, vertex and pronotal disc rufobrunneous with piceous cast; 2, pronotal lateral margins dark and concolorous with disc, though base and apex paler, rufoflavous.
