Antennal scapus in both sexes straight, as long as or slightly longer than funiculus, slightly dilated at apex, as broad as pedicel; females in some species with a fine tuft of scant long setae, otherwise with few short setae; funiculus (including pedicel) 5-segmented; club on anterior face usually with one procurved suture close to apex, smooth and suture-free on posterior face. Elytra with scale-like or hair-like setae, a single row on each interstriae; strial setae minute or absent. Procoxae contiguous. Protibiae twisted, with 2 or 3, (rarely 4 or 5) lateral and apical denticles. Metatibiae with three lateral and apical denticles. Ventral setae simple, unifid. Proventriculus with a cluster of 310 strong crop spines attached to a tubercular base in front of the apical plate; apical teeth transverse or lightly curved, finely dentate; masticatory teeth smooth, closing teeth free, not compact. Male genitalia with a long flagellum, sometimes straight and broad, sometimes very long and coiled; tegmen difficult to assess, either reduced or absent, apophyses more than twice as long as aedeagal body; spiculum gastrale about as long as or slightly shorter than aedeagus (
