Rostrum approximately as long as pronotum along middle (exact length ratio unclear due to obscured head), fairly slender, abruptly widening apically (Fig. 3). Mandibles large, falciform. Antennae orthocerous, inserted dorso-laterally at apical 1/4; clubs composed of 3 loose articles.

Elytra with ten shallowly punctate striae (Figs 2, 3, 7); scutellary striole present, extending approximately to mid-length of elytra; interstices lacking punctures; elytral shoulders rounded. Abdomen with pygidium (tergite VII) concealed. Legs approximately equal in length, slender; femora slender; trochanters small, triangular; tibial spur formula 2-2-2; tarsomere 1 rather narrow, elongate (Fig. 6), approximately 2
