. Black, alutaceous; legs dark reddish-brown to blackish, with tarsi and forelegs more reddish than middle and hind tibiae and femora; antennae and palpi reddish-brown; setation pale. Antennae 9-segmented, club 3-lamellate, scapus strongly inflated at distal extremity. Labroclypeus broadly concave anteriorly, its lateral margins weakly sinuous in both dorsal and lateral views; anterolateral angles short and broad, moderately protruding, reflexed at distal margin only; canthus rounded. Punctures on dorsal surface of labroclypeus and frons annular, gradually increasing in size and density from anterior margin of labroclypeus toward frons, with dense microscopical velvety pubescence; intervening spaces very narrow, convex, very finely microreticulate. Frons slightly convex. Pronotum transverse, with anterior margin concave and only slightly bisinuate, and anterolateral angles strongly protruding, acute. Pronotum widest at middle, its sides weakly convex and smoothly converging anteriad before mid-length, weakly concave behind mid-length; basal margin regularly convex; posterolateral angles obtuse. Lateral margins of pronotum distinctly crenulate, with 24 crenulae better expressed in posterior two-thirds of lateral margin; a short seta present between every two crenulae. Pronotal punctures large and deep, ovate, with dense microscopical velvety pubescence; intervening spaces narrow, convex, glossy in part, forming an allusion of wavy longitudinal ridges. Hypomeron separated from prosternum by flange-like carina bearing long and sparse setae; antennal pockets very deep. Punctures of hypomeron moderately large and not densely distributed, annular, with setae not surpassing diameter of puncture; intervening spaces variable, matt, with very indistinct microsculpture. Scutellar shield apically rounded; puncturation similar to that on pronotum, but punctures smaller and intervening spaces less convex, matt. Elytra moderately widened posteriad, broadly rounded apically, with conspicuous apical declivity; apical umbones transversely extended, not callose. Base of elytra weakly impressed close to margin. Punctures of elytra round to ovate or slightly hexagonal, deep, with dense microscopical velvety pubescence, becoming smaller toward sutural joint and side-margins; intervening spaces very narrow, convex, forming an allusion of longitudinal carinae (two of them being most expressed on each elytron between scutellar shield and humeral umbo), very finely microreticulate, matt. Pygidium flat, with dense elongate-oval puncturation bearing dense microscopical velvety pubescence and short adpressed to semierect setae slightly or not surpassing length of punctures. Thorax rather densely punctured, with punctures round, moderately-sized (about twice smaller than those on elytral disc), bearing dense microscopical velvety pubescence and very short adpressed setae, slightly or not surpassing diameter of puncture; intervening spaces slightly variable but mainly smaller than diameter of punctures, somewhat convex and finely microreticulate. Abdomen concave in profile, with last two visible ventrites somewhat bulging ventrally (
