a little longer than wide, the greatest width at about 1/5/–1/4 of pronotal length. Lateral margins simple to very weakly crenulate, arcuate behind anterior angle to widest point, then straight and weakly converging to posterior angles. Lateral marginal sulcus very narrow adjacent to very narrow, raised border. Anterior angles obtuse angulate and weakly produced at sinuation of anterior marginal border. Anterior margin very weakly emarginate, a light sinuation to anterior angles, unbordered until joined to the lateral margins. Posterior angles strongly rounded, interrupted by several well-developed denticles. Posterior margin arcuate to angular at middle, and completely margined by sulcus. A pair of narrow, shallow, fovea in basal sulcus at approximately 1/4 basal width from posterior angles. Basal border narrow, not obviously punctate.

flat over medial third, a little declivous to anterior margin, and strongly declivous to lateral margins and anterior and posterior angles. Disk lacking medial impressions and bearing relatively evenly sized and evenly distributed punctures except behind middle where puncture density is reduced. Punctures small, elongate oval, separated by 1–5 times their length, becoming larger and closer laterally. Pronotal disk between punctures moderately shining with hints of elongate microsculpture laterally.

Punctures mostly transversely ovate in middle of prosternum, becoming more circular posteriorly and laterally, bearing short very pale yellow setae. Anterior edge with weakly sulcate margin that extends only across middle third, with a distinct row of small punctures along front. Apex of prosternal process very weakly angularly emarginate.

Although it is difficult to assess phylogenetic relationships based on morphology alone, we believe this material likely represents three closely related, but distinct species. More material, especially living specimens, if they could be discovered, would help resolve the nature of the relationships of this group of species with greater certainty.
