Translated from French:
Subhemispherical. Prothorax flavous, adorned with a basal border with five teeth, the medial of which forms the foot of an almost cup-shaped spot, black. Elytra decorated with a sutural border, and a marginal and each with a longitudinal black band: the latter without curvature at its base, extended up to three-quarters; adorned on each side of it with a testaceous-red band on a yellow background. Black belly. Femora partly black.
