Description ( Schultze, 1925): ‘’Black; prothorax and elytra scattered with very pale bluish or greenish white scales, forming on the latter in the middle an indistinct and irregular narrow transverse band. Prothorax coarsely and irregularly confluently punctured with sparsely scattered scales. Each elytron in the female at apex with a short, curved excision, but suture at apex strongly swollen, forming a distinct projection within the excisions.’’
Relation: Related to M. (M.) striatus Heller, 1912 , but can be distinguished by different sculpture of elytra and longer rostrum with less pronounced sculpture.
