Like other related genera, only the males exhibit modified (pectinate) antennae. Species of Xenorhipis are distinguished from related genera by their abbreviated elytra (entire in Trichinorhipis) and their subparallel metacoxal plates (triangular in Hesperorhipis). Xenorhipis brendeli is known from the eastern U.S. west to Minnesota and eastern Texas.
