The surface of the pronotal disc, and anterior transverse impression and associated callosity are irregularly wrinkled. Of the elytral striae, only sutural stria 1 is moderately deep basally, with elongate punctures that expand the stria basally, the stria smooth and deep apically. Striae 2-4 are shallower on the disc, striae 5-7 progressively shallower, and striae 6-7 discontinuous. At the elytral apex, stria 2 is of subequal depth to the sutural stria, fused striae 3 + 4 and 7 are present, and the apices of striae 5 and 6 are shallow but traceable.
