Beak slender, not strongly arcuate, cylindrical, as long as or a little longer than the head and prothorax, and rather feebly dilated (male), decidedly longer, not dilated (female), with fine sculpture at base, a furrow over the insertion of the antennae, beyond which it is entirely polished with very few, fine punctures. Antennae moderate, first joint equal to the next two, second slender, three-fourths as long as the first, and equal to the third and fourth together, third reaching the eye. Front punctate, the punctures tending to arrange themselves in longitudinal lines; eyes small, widely separated but not prominent. Prothorax as long as wide, widest near the middle; apical margin thickened; sides rounded to the base; surface densely, not very coarsely puntuate, with an impressed line, which does not reach beyond the middle. Elytra about one-half longer than wide, subparallel; humeri moderate; sides feebly arcuate, without post-humeral sinuation; striae not deep; intervals about one half wider than the striae, flat or slightly convex, more or less finely wrinkled; punctuation beneath not dense; legs moderate, last tarsal joint extending beyond the lobes of the third for a distance much greater than their length; claws strongly toothed.
