Diagnosis: Body elongate; hemelytron brown; protonum brown, with pale apical band, robust, convex, wider than head, widest at middle with lateral margins weakly tapered and squared, distinctly longer than median head length; eyes dark-brown ( Fig. 4A View FIGURE 4 ). Metaxyphus broad, short and triangular, with apex rounded ( Fig. 4B View FIGURE 4 ).

Males: pala with four setae dorsally; ventrally, palmar area with several scattered setae in the middle, ca. 15 setae in lateral row; palar claw broadened distally, apex rounded ( Fig. 11B View FIGURE 11 ). Median lobe of sternum VII with four long setae, apex short and acuminate ( Fig. 5A View FIGURE 5 ). Strigil present. Prestrigilar flap on segment V as in Fig. 5B View FIGURE 5 . Free lobe of tergum VIII slightly expanded posteriorly, mesial angle rounded with ca. 7 short setae marginally, lateral angle squared with ca. 20 setae of varying lengths ( Fig. 5C View FIGURE 5 ). Left paramere: shaft broad, flattened, with a notch along lateral margin near base and short process near apex; basal lobe long, tongue-shaped ( Fig. 5D View FIGURE 5 ).
