to the derm on which it rests, and in addition with pale yello^v or 

 white spots, two at Ijase on suture appearing as a single bilobed 

 spot, 2nd and 3rd interstices each with a spot about two-fifths 

 from apex, the 3rd with a spot at apex, a spot at base of 4th and 

 one in middle of 5th. Pygidium feebly, under surface densely 

 clothed. 



Eyes large, convex, moderately separated. Rostrum short, 

 stout, slightly curved; strongly punctate in ^, less noticeably in 

 5. Scape inserted nearer apex than base of rostrum, as long as 

 club and shorter than funicle; 1st joint of funicle larger but 

 scarcely longer than 2nd. Protliorax compressed and subtubular 

 at apex ; median line feebly impressed; a distinct subfoveate 

 impression on each side of base. Sctitellum transverse, within a 

 depression. Mi/fra longer than wide; interstices wide, flat, the 

 2nd to 6th granulate near apex. Ptjgidium non-carinate. Lec/s 

 rather short; femora (especially the anterior) strongly dentate; 

 claw-joint very distinct. Length 4, rostrum 1 (vix); width 2 mm.
