Pronotum 1.42× wider than long, widest almost at middle, weakly converging posteriorly, strongly narrowing anteriorly towards rounded apex; surface convex, coarsely reticulate punctate, punctures shallow, small, closely placed, covered with short scale-like setae. Elytra 1.34× as long as wide, 2.78× as long as pronotum; anterior margin convex with 10–11 crenulations; small granules on elytral base; striae well marked with large, shallow, close punctures each with a setose granule becoming somewhat smaller on declivity; interstriae nearly 1.5× as wide as striae, surface convex with irregularly placed much smaller punctures. Males slightly smaller than females; frons with sparse hairs not forming corona but a pair of minute, transversely placed, fused tubercles on middle.
