Adults reach a length of about 7 mm. They are completely black with lightsetae. The head is quite densely covered with erect bristle-like structures and the frons is widely covered with strong punctures. The antennae are yellowish-brown. The pronotum is moderately densely covered with minutely bristle-like punctures and there is a narrow central longitudinalridge without punctures. The anterior margin and lateral margins have long, erect cilia and some long, hair-like bristles are also found on the disc, particularly behind the anterior margin. The elytra are punctate in rows in the striations, the punctures with small, palesetae. Longer setae are also found occasionally, particularly on the posterior part of the suture. The intervals are only very sparsely punctate.
