with convex elytral intervals, and with a mottled pattern of light and dark on the elytra (as in Fig. 2A); adults have a seta at the hind corner of the pronotum, and lack elytral microsculpture in both males and females. Stria 3 and stria 4 are joined together and interrupted in front of the anterior discal seta (ed3; Fig. 2A, 4A); the striae are otherwise complete, and deeply engraved. This combination of characteristics is distinct within the genus.
