 Entirely black, opaque form as in Tetraonyx Latr., surface sparsely

This species at the first glance resembles the $ Gynapteryx opaca 

 (vide supra} rather closely but can be separated as follows: 



Pubescence long, first two joints of antennae hairy, thorax dull, almost

Pubescence short, first two joints of antennae not hairy, thorax some- 

 what nitid, coarsely, irregularly and sparsely punctured. 



C. fulleri.
