Aegostheta natalensis

Adults reach a length of about 14 mm (0.55 in). They are entirely testaceous-red, shining, and glabrous on the upper side except for a thick fringe of flavescent hairs along the base, and a finer one along the outer margin of the elytra. The clypeus is covered, like the head, with closely set, deep, somewhat rounded punctures. The pronotum is covered with round, fairly deep punctures not very closely set, and the scutellum is hardly punctate. The elytra have two fairly distinct costules, and are covered with deep, round punctures separated by an interval narrower than their diameter. The pygidium is, like the abdominal segments, very slightly pubescent.
