Posterolateral furrows of pronotum well marked, curved, more pronounced towards posterior portion; humeral angles prominent, rounded; posterior margin of pronotum straight. Scutellum sculptured, with a shallow, wrinkled, moderately large median depression; scutellar prongs short, narrowly separated at the base and slightly convergent towards their apices.

Prosternum wider on approximately its anterior half, in which there is a pair of very shallow lateral prominences; on posterior half, the prosternum forms a cylindrical median process, which surpasses fore coxae by about its distal third and reaches mesosternum, with its median portion mostly occupied by the stridulitrum.
