Small (3.2–3.5 mm), oval and black beetles, with yellowish spots on elytra and pronotum, which belong to the tribe Hydroporini . From the related genus Tiporus , which have the shoulders of the elytra obliquely bent upwards, it can be distinguished by the lateral edge of elytron and lateral edge of pronotum forming nearly continuous straight or slightly sinuate line in combination, and the tetramerous male protarsi. Two species, distributed over coastal northern Australia. For a detailed description of the genus see Watts (1997).
