This species can be separated from its congeners by its comparatively much smaller size, uniform yellow-orange coloration on both sides, punctation on head, pronotum and elytra with distinct reticulate microsculpture between interspaces, and the unique male genitalia.

). Ventral side yellow, paler than dorsal side, except apical antennomeres, tips of mandibles and tarsal claws darker, brownish. Head with yellowish white hairs, clypeal margin truncate between lateral projections, ocular canthus deep and broad, eyes prominent with anteriorly and posteriorly divergent margins, head 3.24x as wide as an eye, interocular distance 1.29x as wide as an eye, punctures widely spaced, separated by 3–5 diameters, slightly closer near ocular margins, interspaces between punctures with distinct, strongly reticulate microsculpture. Pronotum anteriorly deeply and trapezoidally excavated, anterolateral corners obtusely and broadly rounded, punctation dense on disc, punctures separated by 2–4 diameters, slightly closer near posterior margin, interspaces with distinct reticulate microsculpture except around middle of anterior margin with fewer punctures having apparently smooth and shiny interspaces; lateral margins with a narrow gutter. Scutellar shield broad, transverse triangular with a few punctures. Elytra explanate with a marginal gutter, punctation on disc similar to that on pronotum, slightly more deeply impressed, separated by 2–5 diameters, interspaces having distinct, reticulate microsculpture, punctures coarser and more widely spaced on lateral margins, closer towards apices. Prothoracic hypomeron deeply foveolate on anterior inner corner; prosternal process medially narrower, apically broadened and rounded, with a pair of carinae. Mesoventrite anteriorly deeply triangularly emarginate, with a longitudinal median ridge reaching up to two-thirds of its length. Metaventrite with a complete discrimen. Middle and hind tibiae without apical spurs. Tarsal claws appendiculate. Elytral epipleuron without distinct foveae but somewhat depressed on level with legs. Abdominal postcoxal lines (
