This genus is characterized by a least one autapomorphy (lateral metaventral stria curved outwards, almost reaching metepisternum) and several synapomorphies, e.g., the presence of the lateral pronotal stria and the absence of carinal prosternal striae. It is probably a monophyletic taxon with several features that show its adaptation to the sandy environment, including the vestiture of the ventral part of the body, a typically shaped outer margin of the protibia and thickened metatibia.
