Adults reach a length of about 5.5 mm. They are similar to Hyposerica cruciata in colour and form, but the elytra are somewhat longer, the hind coxae are larger, the middle of the thorax is covered with short white hairs (the sides less so) and the hind tibiae are somewhat broadened towards the tip.[3]
