The subbasal tubercle on each elytron of this genus is usually single and complete. However, a few individuals (two of nearly one hundred specimens) have the subbasal tubercle separated by several grooves (Fig. 29). This was considered an aberration and

The type species of this genus is flightless, having a shortened metasternum (subequal to mesosternum in length), constricted humeri and reduced hindwings. These three related structures were considered as generic characters by
