Dorsum of head, pronotum, and elytra black with general faint iridescent green sheen. Anterolateral margins of pronotum with broad pale patch. Elytra with faint bronze to green maculae on discal region. Maxillary and labial palps yellow. Mentum and stipes light to reddish brown, distinctly paler than ventral face of head. Legs, epipleura, lateral margins of prosternum yellowish brown. Abdominal ventrites dark brown.

Ground punctation on labrum, clypeus and frons fine, distance between punctures 1.5–3.0× the width of one puncture. Systematic punctures on labrum consisting of several indistinct punctures medially. Frons with irregular row of systematic punctures mesad of each eye. Clypeus with a few very indistinct systematic punctures along anterolateral margins, slightly larger than surrounding punctation. Maxillary palps short, shorter than width of labrum; segment 2 slightly bulbous, apical segment slightly longer than penultimate. Labial palps three-fourths as long as width of mentum. Mentum quadrate, anterior margin slightly convex, bearing very fine punctures.

Ground punctation on pronotum and elytra composed of moderately impressed, evenly distributed punctures of generally uniform size. Pronotal systematic punctures set with short fine setae, similar to slightly larger in size to ground punctures; blending with larger ground punctures. Lateral margins of pronotum and elytra with dense row of yellow setae, creating fringed appearance. Posterolateral corners of pronotum rounded. Sutural punctation on elytra absent or unmodified from ground punctation. Elytra with five distinct rows of clumps of systematic punctures, each clump composed of several coalesced punctures which each bears short erect yellow seta. Prosternum with sharp, high carina elevated anteromedially, the elevation bearing two short coarse spine-like setae. Elevated process of mesoventrite raised to a point medially, with flat, even posteriorly sloping face set with 4–5 thickened spine-like setae. Metaventrite with oval glabrous area posteromedially, about twice long as wide, length of glabrous area ca. half the length of metaventrite. Procoxae with dense, fine short pubescence; with a few short thickened setae or spine-like setae mesally, which are easily overlooked. Protibiae each with 6–7 spine-like setae on dorsal face.

Specimens from the two known localities (the Escalera and Rio Toron sites) differ slightly in that the Rio Toron specimens are slightly larger on average, and have more compact, erect tufts of setae while specimens from the Escalera site have often some decumbent setal clumps on the elytral disc. Most Rio Toron specimens lack iridescent maculae and thus appear more dull than the Escalera specimens, which mostly have iridescent maculae, but there are exceptions in both cases. The genitalia, however, are similar and we attribute these differences to geographic variation.

This species is known from two geographically close, but ecologically different localities: one collection was made on flat wet rock in a densely forested stream at about 600 meters elevation, while the other was made on a seepage/wet rock region in mostly-open riparian corridor at nearly 1400 meters.
