This genus is easily recognizable among the Bornean Morimopsini by its antennae, which are always shorter than body (Figs 1–8), and with antennomere II distinctly longer than antennomere III (Figs 21–27).

Body elongate to elongate-oval, small to medium-sized. Body densely clothed with very short pubescence; coloration either more or less uniformly brown or brown with yellowish stripes ranging from vertex through sides of pronotum to basal part of elytra, mouthparts lighter; in some cases antennae reddish brown or black (Figs 1–16).

Labrum free, transverse, glabrous, either with one row of punctures bearing long setae (Figs 18–19) or with whole surface moderately sparsely, irregularly punctured (Figs 17, 20). Eyes small, reniform, vertically elongate, more or less emarginate at antennal articulations, lower parts distinctly narrower than genae. Antennae filiform, 11-segmented, shorter than body in both sexes; scape and pedicel covered with very short dense pubescence; the rest of antennomeres with much sparser pubescence; scape enlarged, swollen, slightly curved, longest, reaching at most center of pronotum, subparallel-sided, gradually slightly widened towards apex, thickest at apical part, apex either simple (Figs 23–27) or with distinct lateral hook-shaped projection (Figs 21–22), pedicel very long, apical antennomere simple, about two times as long as penultimate antennomere.
