Frontal lobes large and rounded, raised at an angle of about 45°; distinct carinae extend back from these to a point posterior to the posterior margin of the eyes and are here joined by slight pre-ocular carinae, the antennal scrobes thus delimited are concave. Antennal scapes slender, gently curved, nearly as long as entire head from tip of mandibles to posterior margin of neck. Funicular joints 2-8 distinctly longer than broad, 9th joint as broad as long. Terminal joint slightly longer than joints 7-9 taken together or as the 1st funicular joint alone.
