Pronotum longer than wide, very slightly incurving premedially, subquadrate. Probasisternum anteriorly slightly narrow, posterolateral margins round. Profurcasternum posteriorly curving towards anterior, anteriorly gently curved. Mesothorax 4.5–5x longer than prothorax. Mesothorax around 1.8x longer than metathorax. Meso and metanotum and meso and metasternum with faint longitudinal medial carina. Furcae in “Y” shape, mesofurca narrower and more elongate. Metanotum around 4.5x length of median segment.
