Head: Large, with wide neck (in males, HWmax/PWmax = 0.640.71, HWmin/PWmax = 0.560.59; in females, these indices 0.640.68 and 0.560.58, respectively). Eyes moderately convex (in males, HWmax/ HWmin = 1.181.26, and in females, 1.181.22), in lateral view oval, slightly elongate. Tempora comparatively long, about half as long as eye, more or less flat, somewhat abrupt to neck. Genae wide, much wider than width of antennomere 1, with few short setae. Lateral margin of head between antenna and eye more or less markedly protruded laterally, forming a small obtuse angle near eyes, distinctly bordered. Area between supraorbital furrow and upper margin of eye comparatively wide, approximately as wide as width of antennomere 2 basally. Supraorbital setigerous pore located just behind level of posterior margin of eye, separated from supraorbital furrow at least by width of antennomere 3 apically. Labrum slightly or moderately concave anteriorly. Clypeus slightly emarginate along anterior margin, moderately convex basally, flatly sloped to apex. Frons and vertex convex.

Left mandible not truncate, at most only slightly blunted at apex. Dorsal microsculpture visible only laterally above and behind eyes, consisting of transverse meshes. Antennae short, slightly not extending to the pronotal basal edge, with antennomeres 58 slightly longer than wide.

Sides almost straight or slightly sinuate in posterior third. Apical margin very slightly emarginate, with apical border interrupted at middle. Apical angles narrowly rounded, slightly protruded anteriad. Basal margin very nearly straight or slightly oblique laterally, vaguely bordered almost throughout, somewhat longer than apical margin and slightly shorter than base of elytra between humeral angles. Basal angles obtuse, sharp at apex, usually without distinct denticle at tip. Pronotal disc convex, strongly sloped to apical angles, not depressed basally, slightly flattened at basal angles. Lateral gutter slightly widened in apical third. Median line distinct, fine, ended before apical and basal margins. Basal foveae oval, poorly delimited, very shallow. Surface sparsely and irregularly punctate only along base and in latero-basal area till lateral seta.
