The distinguishing features of this species are : — tooth of mentum 

 somewhat pointed and not much shorter than the lateral lobes of 

 the same ; wide head (evidently across the eyes, which are little 

 convex, more than three-quarters the width of the prothorax) ; 

 clypeus roundly prominent on either side and slightly more pro- 

 minent than the lateral wings which are clearly distinct from it ; 

 vertex strongly punctulate on a space of variable size, — body of 

 even width from the front of the prothorax to near apex of elytra ; 

 prothorax by measurement nearly a quarter (to the eye scarcely) 

 wider than long and having its surface strongly wrinkled trans- 

 versely and punctured towards the sides, without any longitudinal 

 line impressed on either side near the base, no two elytral striae 

 distinctly connnected in front, &c., &g.
