Orangey-bronze with small areas of green; pronotum with prominent pre-scutellar pit which is deep and elongate; elytra with conspicuous carinae.
Until recently, known only from early collections. The holotype was collected at Oodnadatta in 1931-32, and Bílý & Hanlon 2020 also cite an allotype from 'S. Australia' and a paratype from 'Australia'. A recent SA Museum accession comprises an male and female collected in 1996 at Arckaringa Creek, SSW of Oodnadatta.
