Hab. Guatemala, Capetillo [Champion). 



Antennae subclavate ; the scape a little longer than the following three joints united ; 

 the second joint a little shorter than the third and longer than the fourth joint, the 

 latter being half the length of the third. Head shining, especially on the vertex ; the 

 face rugosely punctured ; the front and vertex bearing large separated punctures, except 

 above the antennae, where there is an impunctate space. Eyes very distinctly margined. 

 Collar transverse, margined on the top. Mesonotum shining, bearing some large scat- 

 tered punctures ; parapsidal furrows not very distinct. Scutellum rugosely punctured,

 depression above each antenna ; vertex rugosely punctured. Thorax nearly transverse 

 in front, opaque on the middle lobe, the latter bearing large punctures ; lateral lobes
