 and erect, yellowish hairs, apical joints finely, densely punctate, 

 densely clothed with short, recumbent pubescence; joint 3 strongly 

 unispinose at apex; joints 4 to 8 more or less strongly bispinose; 

 first joint robust, slightly clavate, subequal in length to the third 

 joint, which is distinctly longer than the fourth; eleventh joint 

 subequal in length to the tenth. 



Pronotum feebly wider than long, and about equal in width at 

 base and apex ; sides nearly parallel, at most only vaguely rounded ; 

 disk uneven, ornamented with a small, round, median, glabrous 

 spot, and two glabrous spots on each side, a small round one in front 

 of middle, and an elongate one beliind the middle, but slightly more 

 exterior than the anterior one ; surface coarsely, confluently punctate, 

 rather densely, irregularly clothed with long, recumbent, yellowish 

 pubescence, with a few long, erect hairs intermixed. Scutellum 

 broadly triangular, curvilinear, and rather densely clothed with 

 long, recumbent, grayish pubescence. 



Elytra three and one-half times as long as pronotum, and at base 

 slightly wider than pronotum at middle; sides parallel from base 

 to apical sixth, then arcuately narrowed to the tips, which are sep- 

 arately, deeply emarginate, bispinose, with the lateral spine slightly 

 longer than the sutural one ; surface rather densely, coarsely, irregu- 

 larly punctate, the punctures becoming sparser and finer posteriorly, 

 sparsely, irregularly clothed with long, recumbent and erect, yellow-

 long, recumbent and erect, whitish pubescence, which nearly con-

 Prostemum sparsely, coarsely punctate, densely clothed with long, 

 recumbent and erect, whitish pubescence, which nearly conceals the 

 surface; prosternal process rather narrow, strongly expanded be- 

 hind the coxal cavities, and arcuately declivous posteriorly. Meso- 

 sternum broad, even between the coxal cavities, and rather abruptly 

 declivous in front. Legs sparsely, irregularly clothed with long,
