Ocelli equi-distant from the eyes and each other. Dorsum 

 of pronotum moderately elevated, with numerous irregular 

 longitudinal carinae, and bearing two large more or less quad- 

 rangular elevations, the first just behind humeral angles, the 

 second at middle; humeral angles developed into large flat au- 

 ricular processes; posterior process covering clavus and a 

 small part of corium. Tegmina with distinct veins; basal 

 half of corium coriaceous and punctured, emitting three 

 longitudinal veins equi-distant from each other and costa, 

 space between interior ulnar vein and interior border occupy- 

 ing half its area, third apical cell triangular, petiolate, one 

 discoidal cell. Wings with four apical cells, second subtri- 

 angular, petiolate, third long, broad, sessile. Tibiae not 

 broadened; tarsi of equal length.
