The vertex is impressed with a deep longitudinal groove. The thorax is conical, the sides being obliquely narrowed from the base to the apex. On either side, just above the base, is a small, obscure rufous spot. The spine of the elytra is broad, deeply excavated above, produced obliquely outwards and somewhat backwards. The abdomen is very obscure blackish-aeneous, the apical segment stained on either side with an obscure rufous patch.
