The present species is closely related to T. maritima and T. citrina. 

 When compared with the former it is found to average smaller. The 

 lateral carinae of the frontal costa are normally not as distinct below 

 the median ocellus. The lateral lobes of the pronotum are more com- 

 pressed cephalad of the principal sulcus, with the disk at this point 

 more distinctly narrowed as a result, and with caudal margin of disk 

 less produced, the angle being normally rectangulate. The tegmina 

 are proportionately similar but not as long relatively when compared
