Head: Comparatively large for subgenus, with wide neck (in males, HWmax/PWmax = 0.660.67, HWmin/ PWmax = 0.520.54; in females, these indices 0.670.68 and 0.550.56, respectively). Eyes convex (in males, HWmax/HWmin = 1.241.25, and in females, 1.211.22), oval in lateral view. Tempora at most third as long as eye, slightly convex, somewhat abrupt to neck. Genae wide, about 1.51.7 as wide as width of antennomere 1, with few short setae. Lateral margin of head between antenna and eye slightly protruded laterally, forming an obtuse angle near eyes, distinctly bordered. Area between supraorbital furrow and upper margin of eye slightly narrower than width of antennomere 2 basally. Supraorbital setigerous pore located just behind level of posterior margin of eye, separated from supraorbital furrow by distance slightly shorter than width of antennomere 3 apically.
