Description
Adults reach a length of about 5 mm. They are red and dull, with a blackish forehead. The head is moderately densely punctured, with some setae next to the eyes and on the clypeus. The antennae are yellow. The upper surface is fairly densely and finely punctured, on the sides of the pronotum the punctures show tiny setae. The elytra are slightly furrowed, the furrows covered with tiny bristled punctures, while the intervals are almost puncture-free.[3]
