Antenna with 38 flagellomeres. Terminal flagellomere pointed. Median flagellomeres 2.5 x longer laterally than wide. Frons with transverse striation behind antennal sockets and well-developed pit in front of stemmaticum. Occipital carina complete (or virtually so) forming a point mediodorsally, ventrally joining hypostomal carina at acute angle.
