Blackish brown; femora red in basal half, tibise entirely so; 
elytra with four longitudinal rows of greenish scale spots, the 
subsutural row consisting of two oblong dots and, in the poste- 
rior part, of a stripe, the second of three, the fourth and mar- 
ginal row of two, more or less oblong dots. A peculiarity 
of this species is that the rostrum, the apex of elytra, the 
underside of body, and the legs are covered with fine and 
sparse whitish hairs, and that the prothorax is finely coriaceous 
in the basal half and shining smooth and furrowed in the 
middle of its anterior part.

Very similar to Deporaus marginatus Faust from Calcutta, 
but distinguished by the different coloration, the longer head, 
the stronger antennae, and the much more finely punctured rows 
on elytra. Rostrum of male somewhat obtuse-angularly bent 
downward, above insertion of antennae with a slight indication 
of a divided dorsal nodosity; third joint of funicle rather longer 
than fourth, sixth and seventh equal, gradually passing over 
into the club; thorax subconical, somewhat more densely punc- 
tured than in D. marginatus; elytra nearly twice as long as 
broad, finely punctate-striate, the diameter of punctures much 
less than the breadth of intervals; underside finely, meta-epi- 
sterna more densely, yellowish white pubescent; first tarsal joint 
as long as the two following together.
