Diagnosis. Body surface with metallic luster; elytra interspaces between punctures smaller than puncture diameter. Body pale red tinged with green, but elytra black. Frons in profile weakly depressed apically; supra-antennal carina in dorsal view broadly rounded but weakly emarginate apically, sometimes almost transverse apically, in profile strongly prominent anteriad above clypeus. Antennae extending beyond posterior apices of pronotum by apical two antennomeres in male and by apical antennomere in female; antennomere III slightly longer than II; IV shorter than wide, longer than II���III combined, longer than V. Prothorax widening posteriad; lateral carina strongly prominent just behind anterior angles. Anterior lobe of prosternum in profile strongly inclined (at 30���44 degrees against prosternal horizontal line). Mesial edge of hypomeron carinate anterolaterad. Prosternal spine with subapical tooth; sides at ventral view roundly expanded and anteriorly strongly prominent. Scutellum 1.12���1.29 x as long as wide, strongly convex; posterior margin broadly rounded, but apex often shallowly emarginate. Mesepisternum not reaching mesocoxal cavity. Measurements. Male (n=4).
