Small beetles with shortened elytra and elongated body, length about 1 cm (10 to 15 mm).

The median lobe of the aedeagus (dorsally) with a pair of lateral denticles, but without a pair of median denticles. The formula of the paws is 5-5-5. The head is round, narrower than the pronotum. The front of the body (head and pronotum) is shiny. The species was first described in 1832 . Included in the nominated subgenus Quedius s. str. (based on the whole anterior margin of the labrum) together with the species Q. altaicus, Q. subunicolor, Q. meridiocarpathicus and Q. balticus ^[4] ^[5] ^[6] ^[7] ^[8] .
