 punctured than the scutellum, its apex in the middle roundly projecting. There 

 is a wide punctured furrow below the tegulse ; from its apex an oMique one, 

 not quite so distinct, runs to the base of the pleurae. The sides of the metanotum 

 are bluntly rounded, and the base at the sides is reticulated at the apex. The 

 keel on the 1st abdomii al segment is crenulated at the apex ; the 2nd segment 

 is as wide as long, its sides are rounded.
