c? ? . nostrum rather strongly dilated at apex, ochraceous mummy-brown. 

 Head the same colour, a line along eye and two lines on occiput white, consisting 

 of suberect pubescence. Antenna dark rufous, clnb brown, compact, segments 

 7 and 8 pubescent white. Prothorax broad, same colour as head; two lines of 

 erect pubescence, corresponding to the lines of the occiput, ending at the sides 

 of the mesial tubercle, more or less white ; a large subapical irregular lateral 

 jiatch black, limited behind liy the lateral discal tuft and a transverse crest of 

 pubescence ; a smaller black jjatch in the hinder angle of the ]ironotum ; three 

 discal tufts of about e(iual size, inclining forward, lateral ones black in front. Elytra 

 short, declivous apex impressed ; an indistinct grey band crossing suture behind 

 base, cnrving backwards at sides and here gradually dlsapj)earing ; a clayish grey, 

 anteriorly rounded patch on apical declivity, reaching laterally to a large hiteous 

 tuft, the patch separated from the narrow ajiical area, which is covered with a long 

 grey pubescence mottled with black, by an indistinct transverse fnscous line which 

 is accentuated on the suture by a black spot ; rows of ])unctnres distinct, but not 

 strongly impressed ; a black subbasal dot near suture, two more situated one 

 each in fifth and seventh interspaces behind middle ; jiubeseence of alternate 

 interspaces slightly raised, forming small tufts and pus-tules : third interspace with 

 three small tufts, one near base, the second before and the third behind middle, all 

 tawny in front ; lateral margin with long hairs like those covering tibiae and tarsi.

c??. Head and rostrum clayish ochraceous, the pubescence with traces of 

 white. Antenna dark brown, rufous at the joints, club black ; in cj reaching to 

 basal third of elytrum, hairy beneath, esjjecially ou club. Pronotnm of the 

 same colour as the head, with traces of white above at the apex and laterally 

 at the base, a broadly lyre-shaped mark before the base also white, but very 

 indistinct ; three tnfts, lateral ones very small, central hairs of tufts black. 

 Elytra fuscous ; a dorsal clayish ochraceous area on each, beginning at the 

 snbbasal tuft, stopping proximally of the apical declivity, and extending in a 

 transverse direction from stripe 1 to .'j and posteriorly rather farther towards outer 

 margin ; the area not sharply limited laterally and snturally ; iijiical declivity 

 grey shaded with ochraceous, the grey area separated from the clayish ochraceous
