). It is much longer medially than along the downcurved sides. The rear edge is sinuous, the rear angles are obtuse, rounded. In side view, the pronotum is little arched along the median line, more strongly across its anterior part. The scutellum is an equilateral triangle between the elytral bases. Humeri distinct, the elytra are gently arched, without carinae or sutural stripe. Unmodified ambulatory legs, tibiae on outside with paired carinae. Fully winged beetles.

Further, pigment on the elytra is often difficult to distinguish from dark shades caused by the folded wings which are seen by partial transparency.
