 punctures, keeled in the middle, and sparsely haired. The following parts are yellow : — 

 The head below the antennae and the orbits of the eyes above them, the margin of the 

 pronotum, the tegulas, tubercles, a large mark in the fore region of the mesopleurse 

 (not reaching to the bottom), and a narrow oblique line at the apex, a line on the
