Head covered with fine microreticulation composed of shallowly impressed isodiametric meshes. Punctation double: small punctures between meshes almost imperceptible, sparse large punctures distributed on surface between eyes. Head with punctured groove along eyes and another small transverse groove anterolaterally of eyes. Reticulation of pronotum similar to that of head, but slightly more impressed; punctation similar to that of head, small punctures more distinct, large punctures confined to lines along anterior and posterior margin, and to longitudinal depressions along lateral margins. Reticulation of elytra composed of shallowly impressed slightly transverse polygonal meshes. Punctation of elytra distinctly double: densely distributed small punctures between meshes, and coarse large punctures forming four (sutural, discal and two lateral) longitudinal rows but also occurring in interstices, especially in first interstice and basal half of elytra. Prosternal process trifurcated, apically pointed and weakly darkened. Abdominal ventrites 3–5 each with row of setigerous punctures, broadly interrupted in midpart. Abdominal ventrite 5 medially with one long and thick seta. Ventral part with fine microreticulation composed of slightly transverse polygonal meshes; punctation fine and dense; submatt.</paragraph>
