General Description
由University of Alberta Museums提供
Similar in appearance to beetles of D. hesperoborealis and D. callosa. The channel on the pronotum tends to be a bit shallower and the punctures on the pronotum tend to be less course. The adults are similar to D. caudata but differ in the shape of the pronotum, being widest at the middle and the elytral striae are usually distinctly visible.
