. Elytra (excluding green punctures) with base with a small trans-sutural, rounded red spot; lateral margins, between the elytral base and the anterior tip of the apical lunule, clearly metallic green; the remainder of the elytra black, no violet areas toward the elytral apices; apical lunule narrow, parallel-sided, inner margin less distinct with scattered disjunct pale cells. Elytral sculpturing consists of punctation over basal half, pits deep blue-green; pits separated by smooth, shiny metallic surface, with very little trace of imbrications or granules; punctures are weakly aligned transversely; posteriorly, pits decrease in size and density while becoming increasingly imbricated, and merge into shingle-like transverse rows, especially between the apical lunules; pits and imbrications greatly reduced to absent on lunules.
