The head is broad with large eyes that cover much of the ocular lobe, ocular lobe ratio = 0.84-0.88, though the broad frons results in an ocular ratio lower than might be expected based on the eye size; ocular ratio = 1.45-1.48. Antennomeres 5-11 are stout, relatively short, of moniliform conformation similar to observed in

. The pronotum is slightly transverse, MPW/PL = 1.19-1.29, with the base moderately constricted; MPW/BPW = 1.43-1.51. The pronotal median base is glossy due to the lack of microsculpture, but irregularly punctate with ~20 punctures each side, the punctures more elongate at juncture with disc. Elytral intervals 2-4 are nearly flat on the disc, though interval 2 is convex to the elytral apex, the sutural and 2nd striae of subequal depth. The discal striae 2-4 are discontinuous, with their punctures isolated for portions of the strial length. The pronotal and elytral microsculpture are extremely similar to that observed in
