Scutellum yed-brown, thickly and finely punctured, 
pubescent. 
Elytra entirely red-brown, immaculate, once and a third 
wider than prothorax, narrowing slightly towards apex, 
rugose, with the Jongitudinal raised lines on the disk well

apices rounded externally. 
Underside and legs, including femora, tibia, and_ tarsi,
