Dark brown to black or shiny black cockroaches with pronotum having orange or ochre spots in the middle. Evident sexual dimorphism, males elongated with wings extending beyond the apex of cerci, and females brachypterous. Male pronotum with a characteristic pentagonal transverse shape, lateral margins with sharp angles and a conspicuous small notch. Female pronotum subtriangular with a depression near the margins, and lateral margins with conspicuous small notch or spine. Coxae covered by setae in males, antero-ventral femora margins with spines of equal size. Apical and genicular spines absent. First meta tarsomere of hind leg short and without spines, claws symmetrical and simple, small arolia. L1 present as a single sclerite, its posterior margin almost entirely covered by a crown of small spines, closely packed.

Juveniles of both sexes are oval, almost rectangular with a body length and width ratio = 1,7:1. Beige to light brown, uniformly colored, the dorsal surface of pronotum and tergites is very rough (Fig. 7), covered by thorn-like cuticular microsculptures, often more abundant at their hind margins.

. Very often found grasping on the underside of the bark or the wood of dead trunks, immediately freezing when disturbed. The body of the juveniles are covered by fine particles of the substrate where they are found, which are attached to the tegument structures (Fig. 7). Adult males have never been seen flying, even if they look able to do so with their large and mobile wings. As any blaberid species, they are ovoviviparous, the females retract the large oothecae in the brood sac. Juvenile stages are often observed in groups that remain near each other until adulthood.
