Adults reach a length of about {{cvt|11.5-13|mm}}. They are testaceous with head and [[pronotum]] darker. The lateral borders of the pronotum have outstanding [[setae]] and the surface has impunctate areas. The punctures of the disc each contain an M-shaped groove and a small, white seta. The punctures on the [[elytra]] have setae similar to those of the pronotum and the spaces between the punctures are almost smooth. The lateral borders have stiff setae.{{cite journal|last1=Pope|first1=R.
