Unfortunately, only the female typespecimen could be studied.   Description:  Length: 10.5 mm. Colour: black.  Head:: 1.5 mmlong, 2.2 mmwide; punctation moderately dense and deep; on clypeus with very few indistinct punctures; partly with dense and coriaceous punctation on disc; a small circular depressions on central disc and at antennal base impunctate; punctate space with isodiametric microsculpture; surface slightly shiny; clypeus with obtusely prominent angles; labrum relatively long; labrum distinctly projecting clypeal emargination; eyes slightly shorter than temples; with supraocular and postocular striae and granular punctures; striae behind eyes pointing ventrad; with several supraocular setae.  AntennaeAntennaeelongate with 3 rdantennomere conical and nearly two times longer than 2 nd; antennomeres 4 to 6 longer than wide; subsequent antennomeres quadrate.  Pronotum: 2.0 mm long, 2.4 mmwide; widest at tooth-like prominent front angles; continuously, but only slightly narrowed behind front angles; in posterior third distinctly emarginate; posterior angles nearly rectangular; lateral margin at front angles narrow; distinctly wider at posterior angles; posterior edge margined; punctation moderately dense and deep; distance between punctures on average as wide as diameter of punctures; with weak isodiametric microsculpture; surface shiny; a long longitudinal depression within smooth midline; with longer distance from front edge than from posterior edge.  Elytra: 2.3 mmlong, 2.4 mmwide; with coriaceous ground sculpture; moderately dense and deep punctation scarcely visible between deep ground sculpture.
