Scrobes widely visible in dorsal view, scales on distal half. Suprascrobal sulcus slightly developed. Mandibular scars subcircular and well-developed, located at apex of a cylindrical pedicel; scar on left mandible larger than that on right mandible. Funicular article 1 shorter than article 2 (articles 1/2 ratio: 0.5–0.8). Hind margin of prothorax and fore margin of elytra densely covered by multifid setae. Interval 3 with one declivital tubercle. Interval 5 with or without declivital tubercle (if present, larger than declivital tubercle on interval 3). Ventrites 1–4 completely covered by subcircular scales. Ventrite 5 mostly covered by subcircular or seta-like scales, some Hybreoleptops species could exhibit a middle triangular area lacking scales. Hind tibiae showing an enclosed corbel delimiting a flat lenticular area which could be smooth and bare or setose. Males with pro, meso, and metatibiae with well-developed mucro; females with pro, meso, and metatibiae with slightly developed mucro; metatibial mucro occasionally absent in some females. Female sternum VIII ovate, apex incised.
