Apex of main piece relatively acute, rapidly attenuated, particularly in ventral view. Distal lobe narrow, elongate, sinuous.

In addition to small variations in size, specimens vary in colouration, some being paler than the individual illustrated, particularly on the elytra. There is also some variation in the density of the elytral punctation, some specimens from False Bay (Boulders Beach) having slightly sparser punctures on the disc than others and those from the West Coast. The aedeagus shows little variation in size and overall appearance, but some individuals examined have shorter distal lobes than illustrated, this variation being observed amongst specimens collected from the same pool.
