Description
[edit]Adults reach a length of about 8–9.5 mm (0.31–0.37 in). They are reddish-castaneous, with the antennae paler. The head (except for a portion of the clypeus) are more or less blackish. The pronotum and elytra are fringed with rather long stramineous hairs, becoming longer and denser on the undersurface and on parts of the legs. The elytra have moderately long semi-upright hairs scattered about.[3]
