Prothorax as long as broad, somewhat oval, feebly constricted just before the apex and gradually narrowed towards the base; finely punctate; vibrissæ reduced to a few hairs. Elytra much broader than the prothorax, widening to beyond the middle, conjointly hollowed at the base (the base appearing obliquely truncate on each side as seen from above), flattened on the disc anteriorly, the suture with a compressed prominence at the commencement of the apical declivity and subvertical thence to the tip; finely punctate-striate. Anterior tibiæ moderately long, feebly curved, unguiculate, and armed with 5 or 6 very small teeth.
