 the markings the first is a large oblong macula common to both elytra and not ipiite 

 reaching to the middle of the suture ; then there are two very small spots, one 

 beneath and the other above the humeral angle, and an anguliform line, with 

 the j)oint of the angle directed towards the base, stands close to the first macula, 

 and is posteriorly connected with it ; a transverse postmedian band a little 

 abbreviated at the outer margins, slightly dilated, and not interrupted at the 

 suture ; each apex trnncate, with the angles shortly spined. The whole of the
