356 THE CANADIAN ENTOMOLOGIST 



granulate-punctate, rather densely hairy, with a wide, shallow, 

 transverse impression between the eyes, and a shining median space 

 towards the vertex; the eyes oblique, very narrow, and broadly 

 emarginate in front; the antennal scape sparsely hairy without, 

 the club wide, marked with three distinct, bisinuate sutures which 

 are densely fringed w^ith long bristle-like hairs; as broadly rounded 

 at the tip as at the base, rather densely punctured below. 



The pronotum is very slightly longer than wide, 10:9; with the 

 base very broadly rounded; the hind angles broadly rounded; the 

 sides slightly arcuately narrowed or nearly parallel for over two- 

 thirds- their length, then obliquely narrowed and slightly bisinuate 

 in front; rounded on the front margin; the asperities of the cephalic 

 half of varying size, the largest more or less concentrically arranged ; 

 the caudal half coarsely, closely and deeply, but not roughly 

 punctured ; thickly clothed with long hairs in front and about the 

 sides. 



The sciitelhim is minute, elongate, faintly channelled and shin- 

 ing. 



The elytra are parallel for the greater part of the length, then 

 rounded to the strongly produced, dehiscent and submucronate 

 tip; densely clothed with long light hairs about the sides and 

 around the margin of the declivity; with the elytral striae distinctly 

 impressed, narrow, with deeply impressed, closely placed punctures 

 of median size; the sutural stria? a little more strongly impressed 

 than the others, strongly divergent and widened behind; the 

 interspaces very wdde, not distinctly convex, except the first two, 

 which are also more strongly granulate near the declivity; the wide 

 interspaces all conficsedly punctured, more sparsely on the disc 

 towards the base, very densely and roughly on the sides and about 

 the declivity; the declivity oblique, deeply concave, with the tip 

 strongly produced; the first tooth, on the second interspace, ^icute, 

 distinct and preceded by a row of granules; the third interspace 

 with a row of granules at the top of the declivity; the second tooth, 

 on the fourth interspace, large, conical, acute, adjacent but not 

 united to the third; the third tooth very long, wide, compressed, 

 with the sides parallel and the tip deeply emarginate, representing 

 the united teeth of the 5th and 6th interspaces; the fourth tooth 

 smaller than the second, conical, blunt, nearer to the third than
