Ground punctation on pronotum and elytra composed of fine, evenly distributed punctures. Pronotal systematic punctures with short fine setae, at least 2x the size of surrounding ground punctures, anterior and posterior series each forming an irregular field. Lateral margins of pronotum set with a few sparsely distributed setiferous punctures; but without a dense fringe. Posterolateral corners of pronotum angulate, but not spinose. Sutural punctation on elytra absent or unmodified from ground punctation; sutural interval raised in posterior half. Elytra with five irregular rows of systematic punctures: the first row is represented by dense, continuous coarse punctures bearing erect setae, giving a “mohawk” like appearance. Rows 2–5 are represented by irregular series of larger coarse punctures usually bearing a small recumbent setae. Prosternum with a clearly defined median carina; slightly elevated anteromedially, the elevation set with two spines. Elevated process of the mesoventrite narrow and elongate, more than three times as long as wide; surface nearly flat; set with 6 coarse spines. Metaventrite with oval glabrous area posteromedially, ca. twice as long as wide, length of glabrous area slightly more than length of metaventrite. Procoxae covered with dense pubescence and set with a few scattered, short spine-like setae. Protibiae with 10–12 spines on dorsal face.

This species exhibits more variation than most other species in the region. In particular, the coloration of the venter varies from nearly entirely dark brown in some specimens to distinctively two-toned in others, with the legs and portions of the abdominal ventrites paler than the thoracic venter. The size of the anterolateral pale spot on the pronotum is also variable in size from small and faint to quite large and distinct. However, there was wide variation in these color forms rather than two distinct groupings, and we did not observe any other consistent differences that covaried with coloration. For those reasons, we prefer to describe these specimens as a single species. However, it would not surprise us if future studies with additional data determined that
