The thorax is nearly one-half broader than long, the sides margined, reflexed, straight and parallel behind, rounded and narrowed in front, the anterior angles produced. The apical margin is deeply sinuate on either side, its middle produced into an obtuse lobe. The elytra are ovate, broader than the thorax, the sides margined, minutely serrate towards their apex.[2]
