In this genus the head is not or but little exserted, the postocular portion of the 
head being shorter than the anteocular. The body is elongate, with the corium 
sparsely punctate; and the clavus is longitudinally punctate in linear series, but these 
series become more or less fused and irregular. The posterior margin of the pronotum 
is either truncate or slightly concave. 
This genus is probably almost cosmopolitan.

A Mexican specimen from the collection of Dr. Signoret is here figured. Some 
specimens, especially those from the northern limits, vary in having the femora 
ferruginous; and Stal? also observes that the fuscous apical margin to the corium is 
sometimes absent.
