The antennae have five joints and the basal segment does not reach the tip of the head. The pronotum is rugose and the scutellum has inflated tuberculations on it. The fore tibiae are dilated and on the underside the abdomen has an abdominal spine that reaches the hind coxae.[1] [2]
About fifteen species are known in the genus.[3]
