Adults with head and fuscous, prothorax aurantiacus, elytral maculae aurantiacus in some individuals; elytron brunneus with a narrow rectangular-shaped aurantiacus macula horizontally oriented in the lower half of medial lateral quadrant, scutellar area aurantiacus, sutural area of apical quadrant aurantiacus except for apical margin; metasternum, abdominal sterna III-VI, and epipleuron flavotestaceous, abdominal sternum VII infuscated; legs testaceous; antennal scape and pedicel testaceous, antennomeres 3-6 markedly infuscated, 8-11 white. Dorsal surface devoid of microsculpture, surface luster very shiny. Pronotum cordiform, feebly explanate, with medial lobe at base, lateral margin beaded; hind angle feebly prominent; median line markedly defined. Elytral interneurs effaced from greater part of the elytron surface, only evident as scattered punctures in the medial quadrants, as well as along interneur 1.
