This peculiar genus, of which the antennae show agreement with

 shaped, porrect, and back of the rather small, protruding eyes 

 constricted to form a short, broad neck; antennae fully as long 

 as head and pronotum together, inserted far in front of eyes, 

 their first two joints very thick, the first conical, the second
