Funkhouser gives the following technical description: 



Much resembling the preceding species in size and in general appearance, 

 but differing in shape of the head, in shape of sculpturing of the pronotal 

 horn, and in bearing two yellow spots on the dorsal line of the pronotum. 



Head longer than broad, uniform brown, finely but densely punctate, spar- 

 ingly pubescent; eyes prominent, very deep brown; ocelli yellowish, farther 

 from each other than from the eyes; clypeus longer than broad, rounded at 

 tip, not punctate. 



Prothorax finel\- i)unctate, sparsely pubescent; two distinct ridges on each 

 .side, the upper extending to the lateral margin; pronotal horn strongly curved, 

 broadly foliaceous above, triquerate at tip; median dorsal carina high and per- 

 ciu-rent; two dorsal spots of lemon yellow, the anterior about twice as long 

 as the posterior; posterior process gradually acuminate, extending slightly 

 beyond internal angles of tegmina. 



Tegmina concolorous brown, opaque, costal margins slightly jjunctate, and 

 feebly pubescent at base; veins distinct; five apical and one discoidal cell. 

 First two pairs of legs broadly fohaceous; hind tibiae spined; tarsi thin. 



Length 5 mm.; width 2 mm. 



Internal male genitalia. Styles stout, anterior portion longer and 

 broader than posterior, with a rounded prominence to connective, 

 wider just caudad of this, apices strongly hooked and truncate, the 

 apical point being slightly longer than the anterior one, with a few 

 hairs on the terminal third; connective heart-shaped, broad, a basal 

 V-shaped band heavily chitinized; cedagus, viewed laterally, 

 strongly curved, base very wide and extending dorsad in a large 

 rounded prominence which is separated by a broad notch from the 

 pointed attachment to the connective, the apex pointed and with 

 functional orifice below the tip, the dorsal surface of which bears 

 a number of filelike teeth. 



Distribution. Van Duzee reports this species from Ontario, Mas- 

 sachusetts, New Hampshire, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, 

 Maryland, District of Columbia, North Carolina, Florida, Illinois, 

 Iowa, Michigan, Kansas, Missouri and Texas. In Kansas speci- 

 mens are reported from Douglas, Riley, Sedgwick, Bourbon and 

 Pottawatomie counties.
