 front. A pale angulate line on the base of the front, continued behind

 mottled with fuscous and marked with five, rather obscure, pale vittas. 

 Scutellum dull testaceous, tinged with orange near the outer angles. 

 Elytra closely inscribed with fucsous, which is intensified on the apical 

 region. The pale areola spots distinct. A number of deep fuscous 

 recurved veins on the costal area. Below, fuscous, marked with \)3\e 

 yellow and white. Legs pale, spotted with black.
