Body slender, compressed, very thinly pilose. Head not prominent, 

 the summit gently arched, the fastigiuni descending with moderate 

 rapidity, the face retreating considerably; interspace between the eyes 

 broad, the fastigiuni scarcely sulcate, the frontal costa rather narrow, 

 not nearly so broad as the space between the eyes, sulcate, percurreiit, 

 and subequal; eyes moderate in size, not very prominent, similar in the 

 two sexes, about half as long again as broad, and distinctly longer than 

 the anterior intraocular portion of the genae; antennae moderately 

 stout, somewhat longer (male) or a little shorter (female) than the head 

 and pronotum together. Pronotum subequal, even in the female, very 

 feebly and gradually enlarging in passing backward, with a distinct 

 percurrent median carina, the disk very broadly subtectate. passing by 

 a rounded angle hardly forming a lateral carina into the vertical lateral
