The pronotum is quite extensively covered in the middle with fine narrow scales, on the sides of the pronotum the scales are a little stronger and more dense. Three middle longitudinal bands are darker and scale-free. The scutellum is scaled except in the middle. The elytra are striated, with the intervals weakly convex.
