Among the species of similar coloration, this species is characterized by the combination of relatively small body size, antennae with transverse antennomeres IVX and a rather long antennomere XI, finely punctate elytra, the punctation pattern of the abdomen, and a relatively small aedeagus with a broad ventral process and small apical lobes of the parameres.
