A distinct black or dark brown dorsal band extends from the fastigium of vertex to the IX abdominal tergite. Fastigium of vertex with truncate apex, continuous with fastigium of front; dorsal area smooth. Frons and genae smooth, with multiple irregular macules. Pronotum produced posteriorly, covering most or all of the short wings; cephalic margin of lateral lobes obtuse, ventro-cephalic angle a little obtuse, caudal margin sinuous, covering most of the humeral sinus.
